progress update

My new computer has the ability to capture youtube videos as flv files, so I've been able to pull a handful of raw video footage from the New School's December occupation. I'm now looking into free programs to convert flash video into quicktime movie format, since my version of Final Cut isn't recognizing the files as videos. The first program I installed put a watermark over all the converted video unless I paid and registered, so I have now installed ReelBean 3.93 from the Apple downloads page. So far, I haven't been able to get it to work with these particular flv files either. I'll discuss it with my advisor when we meet soon.

In the meantime, I've been putting together a basic score in soundtrack and cutting together a very basic trailer which should be completed in the next week or so. I'll post it here when I've got it to a point where its shareable.
