I have been reading DVXuser.com for many months, and am facinated by everyone here, specially the forum leader Jarred and the Guru Barry Green. Many times I wonder, what is it like to be these unsung heros of our little world here?

So here is my challenge, Why dont you two if you have time give us a blog, even if its only for a couple week?  I don't know if I am the only one that thinks it would be neet to see what you guys do everyday beyond this forum.

Is it a Challenge?

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

My blog's easy:

11:30 a.m.  Stagger out of bed.
11:31 a.m.  Log on to DVXUser.com
3:00 p.m.  Put in a half-hearted effort to actually get some editing work done
3:15 p.m.  Get bored, go back on DVXUser.com
4:15 p.m. Print out labels, ship out DVX Book/DVD's.
4:30 p.m. Go back on DVXUser.com
6:30 p.m.  Panic because I still haven't done any editing work.  Start editing.
8:00 p.m.  Go watch 24/Idol/West Wing/Apprentice/Joan of Arcadia or whatever's on that night
10:00 p.m.  Agonize that I should go back up and do some more editing.
10:15 p.m.  Rationalize that it's 10:15 p.m. at night, who works that late?  Pop in some Stargate SG-1 DVD's and veg out, telling myself that I'll get up early tomorrow and get the editing done.

Lather, rinse, repeat.





Well, okay, that may not be a "typical" day... but it's my goal! :)

Right down to the SG-1 DVDs . . .
 
Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

The SG-1 DVD's are great. I watch them for the Directors behind the scenes stuff. That is some of the best filmaking material ever shot. Martin Wood and Peter DeLuise rock as directors.

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

How insightfull Barry!! Man, I feel vendicated. I thought I was the only one that was like that. Of course, I sometimes have spurts of amazing productivity that makes up for the flake-out days. All I can say is thank goodness that the real truth is not always known.. :)

Barry-

We are metaphorical sucklings of the same teat.

LOL- "11:31 AM - log on to dvxuser.com"

"3PM - Put in half-hearted attempt at working"

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Its kinda funny... there are so many viable excuses not to work in a day that working almost seems like a waste of time.
 
Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Okay, before anyone takes me too seriously, realize that January has been totally off the hook, probably my busiest month ever, and I'm working full days nearly every day this month! :)

Heck, I'm only on season three of Stargate SG-1... ;D

But there have been days... oh, yes, there have been days...
 
Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Barry watches American Idol? That's too funny and so is the show. Okay back to editing... :)
 
Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

Haven't actually seen both of you...Jarred and Barry. Is it possible if you could post one of your photographs ...with the DVX...XL2 and FX1 ...may be :D

Re: A challenge for Barry and Jarred

...man, for the last couple months my average day is like: get up at 6am and work till 2am. not kidding. im so tired right now that i could puke. i thought i had yesterday free, and i got a list a page long on changes wanted for a DVD. some being big changes requiring me to peel back all the onion layers of editing, compositing and FX work to the original concept where something needs to be changed to the very thing that i suggested to begin with and was told to do otherwise. ..you guys are killing me .. killing me.. with all the talk of quiet afternoons, and vegging out to prime time, walks on the beach, trips to the bahamas, free candy in your mailbox. sniff... where's all the love gone :'(

..i did sneek out with the fam for an hour of sledding yesterday though. and theres some good stuff on the horizon from all the hard work... i hope.

Well, my girlfriend is doing her doctor residency at the moment. Any time I feel overworked I just think about what she is going through. My life is easy.
