Saved for posterity

The Gorse Fox was up first, as usual, but today he had a mission. He was heading across to Durrington to collect the batch of DVD's that had been created from the old Video8 tapes. He timed this to perfection. A very clear run through Chichester and Arundel, but as he approached Durrington on the A27 he could see blue flashing lights up ahead. The road was closed but the Gorse Fox was able to take a different route to avoid the trouble. By the time he had picked up the DVDs and headed back, the A27 was queued way back from the closure. As he said, the Gorse Fox had timed it to perfection.

Back home he started the task of ripping the DVDs down onto the hard drives, while running up and down to play with Ellie and her Play Dough.

This afternoon he returned to DaVinci Resolve and the video from Thailand in 2013. The tasks were firstly to clean up the audio track. This was achieved by using one of the supplied Noise Reduction plug-ins and a lot of experimentation. Secondly, the Gorse Fox had to add some suitable background music. This was less of a problem, but still tool some careful manipulation.

Ellie has just been collected by Pistol Pete. She will be staying with him for the weekend. All of a sudden the house seems very quiet.
