Workshop

I was on vacation with my boyfriend (although we stayed on my island and hopped over to another), and he requested that I make something so he could video it and show it to his mom. They were very curious about the whole process, so he used my iphone to film me making a fish (big surprise!).  This will be the dorkiest thing you've ever seen, but get a load of my clay drawer. It is a hot mess....kind of like my hair, which my mom butchered a couple weeks ago :-/. I've had a bitch of a time converting, chopping up, and trying to upload the four parts to my blog, so I finally put them all on Megaupload :-/. It's a pain in the ass, but if you'd like to see the "workshop", you can download it from links below. There is more to the the workshop, but I'll upload it only if you guys want to see me put the finishing touches on the fishy ;-). You can't download these files simultaneously, just one after the other, btw.

    Gosh I wish I could see it. I couldn't get it to work the first time. The second time it was going to take 13 minutes to download the first file. :-(

    Catherine, next time, I will try to embed the videos on my blog so you won't have to download them! Try again later, though- if you're still having difficulties, I'll try to figure out what's going on.

    Victoria, you're welcome!! The lighting at my workspace is really bad, despite the 5000 lamps, so sometimes the video isn't the clearest :-/. I am going to upload the last step tonight, though :-)!

    HAHA!!! Susan, yes, he is a great guy, me rikey ;-)!!

    Ok, when you click on each link, look to the right, and you will see a verification code that you need to enter into the text box. Once you do that, it will bring you to another screen, where you will have to wait for "x" amount of seconds. When the countdown ends, it will show a box that says "Regular Download". You click on that box to start downloading.

    I always use VLC Media Player because it will play EVERY video format you throw at it:

    - This is making you guys jump through too many hoops, I know, but I went batshit crazy trying to upload the original files here :-/. Let me know if it works!!

    oook, this is what I got. I did everything and after I clicked "Regular DL" it brought me to another page that says websearch blah blah, no records found. Ignored this page and waited for dl to finish. 1 hr, it says!!! And I am on wireless broadband. Waited and at 34 mins left, I got the message, your IP address is wrong etc etc, please try again if this is your IP add.

    Cindy, help!!!!!! & Kiva, don't give up on me! This is too good to miss.

    Yea, you guys got it!!! Sorry the file sizes are so massive :-/. I tried converting the original .mov files to .swf, but the quality was greatly degraded. I told you it was dorky, but Im glad you guys enjoyed it ;-). I'm going to post the last step right now!
