Yeah, guess what happened? Hard drive failure… And it died in the middle of a copy so both the original cut and its copy died at the same moment. This was the first time since I started using computers that I’ve lost a project completely. Gone in a moment with drive error… And since the backup wasn’t complete there was nothing to salvage…
Well, “Are You There?” is not completely gone… I still have all the original footage but the finished project and the Final Cut library are gone. Forever. Damn. Bollocks.
Ah well, when you move on, you should move on…. But maybe I’ll revisit it to add in some stuff that should ha been there in the first place… We’ll see. It’ll be a pleasure editing it on the new Mac Pro 😉
