Project "BBQ Deck House" - A Tweak To The Plans

Over the weekend I was looking at the designs again, and decided to start adding measurements to the plans. That's when I noticed I got the front face wrong. Instead of being 8.1m, I did it at 8.0m. Not a massive amount, but enough that meant I needed to revise the plans.

So that is what I have done over the last few days. I've also tweaked the right hand side. Instead of 2 small frames, I'm going for 1 bigger frame, and have added the beams to work around the brick BBQ.

These plans aren't yet complete, but here is what I have so far (the joists in the "main frame" are about 550mm apart). Oh, and I also mocked up a summer house to get an idea of what area would be left for general seating etc.

Thank god for planning early.

The Mollusc - AKA "Chesterfield Snail"

Image
Last week I decided to pop along and take a look at the Mollusc, based on the edge of Chesterfield in a small park by a housing estate. Originally I wanted to be there for sunset, but when I went by, there were a fair few kids playing football on the park. Not wanting to either be hassled, or have parents come out, I decided to leave it. So I went back later in the afternoon - fully expecting it to be busy. Other than 1 dog walker, who left after about 5 minutes, I was all on my own.

Going To Try And Be More Regular

Ok, so it's now the middle of September. At the start of the year I set myself a challenge to create a video a week - which I've really been trying my best to do.  A couple of these videos have led to people contacting myself to help them create a video for their company/charity or whatever. YAY! The latest video I'm working on is for Chesterfield Operatic Society, which is of a World Premiere of Nicholas Nickleby.

Working On Nicholas Nickleby

Image
My editing set up As I mentioned in the last post, I'm currently working on a promotional video for the World Premiere of a musical adaptation of Nicholas Nickleby. Whilst working on this edit, I was chatting online to one of my "online buddies" Godwyn, and started talking about the editing process. It was then I realised, how complex it can get - even for a small YouTuber like me. God knows how they go on when editing for a blockbuster film. For this video, I started off by creating a simple animated introduction using Adobe After Effects. I then created a bunch of "lower 3rds" for the cast/staff that I knew would be on camera. From there, I then use the dynamic link feature in Premiere Pro to drag these in and over the top of your video.
