Games, Cambridge and video (Video Diary Update +)

Wednesday the recording of the interviews for the next video diary took place, in our meeting room "Bandit's Camp". Woody and I spend the whole Tuesday afternoon taping the windows with black plastic (we used bin bags and gaffer tape). The lights have been a bit crazy, but it fits nicely with the theme of the episode and what the interviewees are talking about. In total there was about 45 minutes on tape, of which 60% can now be used to 'paint' the story. It's ever so complicated, I've listened to the entire tape four times already and some bits are starting to come together. It's hard, trying to get all these different aspects, viewpoints and bits of information about Fable 2 put together so that it makes sense both in terms of audio and visuals, plus all of this within the 5-8 minute time limit. Everyone gave a really

interview, and several questions posted in an earlier Community Call were also asked and recorded, giving me only more material to work with, but also more to drop and leave on the cutting floor!

It'll take up to a month before I'm finished with Episode Four, everyone is happy with it and the actual release of the video. Everyone seems to be enjoying them, so there are quite a lot more episodes already planned.

OK a month would mean just in time for Christmas Yay I can't wait. That gift is all I want for Christmas. ( except a 46" HDTV :lol: )
