Learning curves

April 17th 2008 09:41
Well, the last few months have been a considerable learning curve.

I’m still struggling with the wonderful Adobe Insight program. Great as it is, it’s not easy to learn – not for me, anyway. I suspect that someone with a background in the earlier types of programs along this line might have an advantage. For me I’m having to learn from scratch, and it’s very frustrating. Especially when something goes wrong and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to undo the problem!

And over the last few days I’ve had to teach myself how to take a clip from a movie so that someone can use it in a workshop. And figure out the copyright aspects. I’ve managed to clip the pieces of the movie that are wanted, after some false starts, and by getting a bit of advice from a person from church who does similar things, but again the frustration level is pretty high!

I’m not sure if all these skills will stand me in good stead. By the time I need to apply for another job – if I should have to – the programs and techniques will probably all have been surpassed!
