Ben finds a lot of what I do incredibly tedious so to drive him nuts I thought I'd write about tonight's venture into tedium. I'm working on two bursts of static now—one for the end of the Rube Goldberg segment and one for the end of the tape rewinding segment. My source for static is a VHS tape I made (eventually digitized) when I happened to see some crazy noise while doing a tape transfer at school in the 90's. However, there are some segments in the noise that look blocky and digital (see above). So tonight I spit out the static as individual frames and deleted all the frames with the blocky look. I then reimported the frames back into a movie and then displaced imagery as needed. I also spent some time adding additional noise to the static and color correcting it. This stuff isn't fun to do but it isn't awful either. It's something to do at night when you don't want to think too hard.
