Artwork completed..........


Wow, I finally completed most of my artwork. I separated my originals from my copies, scanned my originals, uploaded them into my computer's iPhoto program, transferred my iPhotos to iMovie, make titles and table of contents for both the movie and the binders of originals and hardcopies, inserted my voice narration and songs that I wrote, then I saved iMovie and sent it to be saved as a movie by using QuickTime...and then some: I finally made it to the final stage of copying my movie onto a CD. I made two copies as a super video CD, which is able to be viewed on any DVD player that has MP3/CD/JPEG capabilities. It took all night and half my afternoon to finish the encoding and writing to my CD! Anyways, I'm making another CD of the movie as a regular video CD, just to see what the difference is. I think there could be a big difference though. First, I tried playing the super video CD on my computers (both Mac and PC) and it didn't work. And second, I played it on my DVD player and it worked. I really enjoyed viewing all my art on the television, as well as hearing me sing. So now I'm waiting for my regular CD to get done encoding and writing while I wait for my cousin Tom and Rita. We're suppose to go to the Dayton Mall area and browse around in Books-a-Million and then eat. If we can't find Books-a-Million, then we'll gladly go to Barnes n' Nobles. I love books! I love to read and learn about computers, web page/site design, and other cute stuff. One of these days I'm going to create my own video game! They have books on making games for teens, so I figure if a teen can understand it then so can I. However, some of those games are written in C programming language, as well as Basic. Well, the only thing that I have left to do for my art collection is to write the page numbers on both originals and hardcopies. Sounds easy, but I've got about 250-300 pages in each binder. When I get all that done, I've got to call and talk to somebody at the copyright office in Washington, D.C. to find out if I should send the binder of hardcopies, or the CD. They probably would want the CD since it is lighter and way less bulky.
