Oh. My. God. My mom just wasted 3 hours of my life to get a 2 min 36 sec video for her blog. Rachel and I originally filmed it to be 9 min 37 sec, but that was too long. So we editted the script a bit to make it 5 min 18 sec. Well, as life would have it, that too was too long. After much editting, uploading, and tears, Rach and I shortened the almost 10 min long video to a measly 2 min 57 sec video. Just as we were about to start celebrating, the computer froze. When we finally got it to work, the video exceeded Youtube's megabyte limit.
Let's just say that a hot date with Ben and Jerry was exactly what we needed right then.
So, FINALLY, we managed to get a 2 min 13 sec video that didn't break any limits, had no background noise or scenery, and had clear sound quality. Streamers and balloons, right? Well, we didn't add the Brandy Bunch part. My mom cast aside 2 AND A HALF HOURS of work because we didn't have this one opening!
WE. WERE. PISSED. This was probably us scream stressed evil times eighty million.
After 10 tries, we finally got in all the shout outs, most of the good questions, a bit of humor, and the god forsaken Brady Bunch. And to think, it only took 3 hours of my life! But no worries, Mom. The voices in my head will make it up to you.
If you want to see what goes on in my family to a greater extent, or you want to see the cursed video of DOOM, then you go here. This is my family's blog. Leave a comment while you're at it so we don't get whipped.
Your Lord and Master,
Lois
