Yay! Managed to mix

Managed to mix episode 3! It took a while as sony vegas crashed so many times, but luckily it gave me time to render everything.. without mistakes! So I could finish the last part and didn't have to redo much either (a really small part)
Now composing is left to do, but due to school (composing and recording) I can't focus much on that  until fall break starts. So I will finish the project in fall break for sure!

No motivation =(

I'm sorry guys that it takes so long with the projects.
I'm in the middle of my school project, but it drains my energy.
Whenever I am home I only think about my abroad internship which I do in february -> I still have so much to arrange (visa, student loan, insurances) and the teachers don't help much either =.= (they ignore my messages) so I'm kind of stressing already.

I dunno why this motivation problem persists, but I hope to be back in the game quickly. In two weeks I have fall break so I hope I feel much better then and can release episode 3! =)

Accepted Sony vegas's crash

I'm okay with losing half of the episode now. This means I can balance the audio more of that part and I realized it shouldn't take that long as I have an example to follow exactly, so it's only recreating.

I do have a horrible cold now though, that kept me away from my laptop. It's still not over (I actually feel sicker than before) so I can not work on the Stranger just yet. I think somewhere next week! =)

Stay tuned. I could upload a preview so there is already something to see. Should I? Yes, no? =P
Maybe the first minute or so. =D


Edit: Uploading a preview from the first 90 seconds really soon. I only notcied that sony vegas starts crashing again while I'm in a new document and only have 8 files opened. I think the corrupted rendered thing is clashing with sony vegas or one of my voice actor's files is not working properly o.o Guess I'll change the format in audacity in order to prevent it

Later release of episode 3 >(

I'm furious! Thanks to that piece of shit of a sony vegas I have to redo half of the episode!! I worked HOURS on that to make it perfect, but thanks to a wrong unknown rendering mistake it's basically all gone. Can't re-render it either as it crashes the moment I click on the project so I was 'lucky' to have rendered some of it.
Thanks a lot sony vegas.. thank you for delaying this episode again.

Unlucky with sony vegas

Sony vegas hates me! I managed to work through its crashes but now the crashes makes working on episode 3 impossible =( It crashes after 10 seconds and even crashes during rendering. Even if he survives the rendering or anything then it messes up all audio and sound effects and mutes certain pieces randomly afterwards which makes it impossible to continue with.

I managed to render the 9 minutes I have now in two parts (THANK GOD!), but this does mean I can't edit the volumes of the voices or sound effects anymore =( if something is unbalanced in the end, then sorry about that

Episode 3 - composing! and news about next year!

Alright, I have most lines edited. Ready to mix the last scene, but that shouldn't take long!
There is one problem though, my sony vegas crashed when I crash somewhere at the beginning till halfway of the track o.o so I have to watch out or I lose some progress.

Only thing that is really left is composing. I need at least 2 / 3 songs, maybe even 4 and then it's ready.
I'm not the fastest in composing, now especially with school next to it that also demands my attention.
I hope to have it done this week, but sadly can't promise it =(

Next to that I also got accepted for an internship in Canada. This means I will be planning a lot in the upcoming months and  Iwill leave for at least 5 months (february till july)
This doesn't mean The Stranger is on hold.. I'll try to find some spare time and still work on my projects and composing. ^-^ But, this does mean the upload rate will be slower.
