Yeah, I'm going to side with Raven on this one. For one, I can't see anything wrong with taking something of meaning and keeping it from being thrown away, but you've also got to know what your personal possession limits are. In this case, you have your personal poster already and they're just taking up valuable space you could be using yourself. Unless you know relatives who would like it, I would suggest offering them at a gaming convention or something, where you are more likely to find people who will appreciate them.
Anyway, in my own personal news, I gave a group presentation yesterday in class.
For a little context:
We were split into a couple of predefined groups, 4-5 members each, two weeks previous. Each group was given a particular topic that we had covered this semester to put together some form of presentation on. An example was shown from last years' groups that put together some illustrated poster boards and all. I was in a team of four, and we ended up doing a mostly video presentation. We recorded our voices for portions of it but also paused the video to explain more in-depth at parts.
Now, most of the legwork was actually done by one of my team-members, using powtoon.com (a free web-based flash video-making site), but due to circumstances, I had to do some final editing the day before it was due, like adding background music for the entire thing. Not a hard task for a five-minute video, but I was initially at a loss for what to do. Then it came to me.
Now, my equalization was horrible, but a
Nightmare Night piano cover and also a short portion of
a full orchestral rendition of Winter Wrap-Up played during the video, and I don't think anyone was the wiser. It was kind of a yay/aww moment for me. Yay that I was able to get away with it, aww that no-one recognized it and I could have something to talk about.
At least the presentation itself went over really well.
Oh, I suppose I should warn people that those links are to ponyfan music. A solo piano cover and a fully orchestral piece, but just in case anyone wants to avoid it.
Derived from that, having to edit a video for the first time, after getting all the programs I needed, I found was really fun, if time-consuming. I think I might just enjoy editing/proofreading in general. Being able to put finishing touches on things. I guess that's why I ended up in charge of the Archives.
