So the school is voting on a Bond next month that if passed will provide funds to build a MAC lab and studio for my classes upstairs.
I would love a new MAC lab and a new studio. This is my first year and I've never taught A/V Tech before but I am really enjoying it. We just put out our 28th episode of The REZ and will be putting out episode 29 on Friday. The most that has ever been put out before that is 12. So we are doing pretty well.
Some of the obstacles I've had to deal with this year is switching from Premiere CS2 to CS4. CS2 was antiquated but it got the job done. CS4 was newer but won't play footage smoothly on these computers, which is essential for editing. So it is kind of worthless. To remedy the problem I've slowly acquired laptops off Craigslist for $200 or less that can run CS6 because I am pretty savvy in that way. So all our editing is being done on 3 or 4 laptops for The REZ. And our studio is pretty small.
But to have a new MAC lab and studio. Well that would be amazing. Even for my other classes to be able to edit on MACs that will play the footage smoothly. And to have a new studio in which we could have a green screen permanently up instead of having to put it up and take it down. We'll see what happens!
