A new academic year, and my internet is down again.
Good start that, but then over the summer holiday I've saved up and bought myself a little treat - a camcorder.
although it's a Mini DV with the old fashion tapes etc, I like it - in fact I do prefer tapes, it's easier!
Anyhow, I taped my cat for an hour or so, and then something hit me.
Out of so much recording, when you start editing most of the clip becomes 'throwaways' simply because when viewed by a second person they don't need the whole clip to understand what is being said.
That's why I love editing.

here's the link to the cat video.
I've been asked by a friend to video a student night party in town, including the aftermath editing - so now I'm working on ideas and concepts, hopefully it'll be good fun.
(though it means no alcohol for me, and walking round a club risking being splashed at by pukes or more alcohol)
