David M. How: Crew in Melbourne, Florida.

So hey, I have been seriously busy with Uni work and I have not really had the time to edit anything. But I finally got around to it, I wanted to make some time to actually get some editing done because its the only thing that calms me and get's my brain working fully. Plus I love it! Anyway, Here is my new video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1f2sgaAraY I would love any feedback you guys may have. I'm not trained in anyway, just so you guys know incase you think "wow this is bad for a professional" lol But yeah, I got this together in a couple of hours and I really need to learn how to work at getting background noise out when it comes to voice-overs without making their voices really low sounding and "tinny". So if anyone has any tips that would be perfect. In other news. Thanks to this site, I managed to get a request to do someone an acting reel! Now, this is the first time I have ever been asked to do anything like this so it was a major leap. I put the finishing touches on it tomorrow (After a looong day at the Uni Library blah) and then once the actor has put it up I will share it here. He did request how he exactly wanted so there wasn't much creative freedom with it which I am not complaining about but I put a little montage at the end of the stuff he did just to give it a bit of a POW. Hopefully he will like it and it won't look too amateur edited. I will keep you updated. Hopefully there will be more original projects lined up for me along the way other then just me editing shows, but for now I keep doing it as practice and for the love of editing even if nothing comes from it! It's an amazing creative realise for sure!

Hey David, a few days ago we implemented a new privacy setting to give you the option of accepting private messages only from users within your network. Today, I discovered a bug with the way this option is set for new users. I just wanted to let you know that the bug is now fixed, so all members are now able to receive private messages from any other member (the default setting). If you'd like to receive private messages only from users within your network, you can change this setting here. Also, you can access your privacy settings at any time from the drop-down menu that appears when you hover over your profile photo in the upper right-hand corner of the page.
