THE FIRST WEEK OF THE TOUR

The last few days have flown by! We have driven countless miles and the days are beginning to blend into one another. Our Avid set up is working nicely. We have had a few hiccups and tonight our Avid tech from Cap Cine will be replacing a fiber card to alleviate the issues we were experiencing.

I love having two airspeeds for ingesting material while I can continue editing on my system. I spend most of the mornings compositing elements for the live show and for our taped preview show,  and then I move on in the afternoon to going through footage shot for short-form, behind-the-scenes features and product demos. I'm also working on travelogues that we shoot for many of the locations we're visiting.

Today was our first taste of the mountains as we were set atop a decent-sized hill at the base of a ski area in Super Besse. We descended back out and are about an hour south in Aurillac.
