My Australian Trip Movie

So I have been in Bangkok the past 3 days for another company meeting. Out of the 3 days, I felt I needed to be present at only 1 - where I was presenting on communications plan and platforms. After that, it was more of a working meeting for the countries where a few of us regional folks did not really need to be there. However, the agenda wasn't drafted by us, and we planned our feedback, and promised to work harder at influencing the agenda for the next meeting so as to cut traveling costs and maximise the use of our time.

Upon my return, while trying to unwind, I thought it would be a great idea to create a home movie for my trip using my mac (since creating a movie was almost automated) and got started to work on it. However, for some reason or other, it refused to let me use 2 songs for my movie. The movie played well on my mac running on the 2 songs I chose for my movie, but when I exported the file to a Quicktime movie, it only played one song and ran the rest of the movie in silence.

However, since I'm pressed for time and have a hell of a work tasklist to follow up, in addition to the unpacking I need to finish after my move in, in addition to contacting my aircon installer as my aircons keep tripping, in addition to my renovator who mixed up my hot and cold water pipes, in addition to the my neighbour's upstairs toilet leaking down and ruining my paint job, in addition to the fact that classes have started for one of the modules of the Masters' course I'm taking - I think I will settle for this imperfection for the meantime and just post it up.

If any of you have the know how to save me some time so that I can fix the movie to run the 2 songs I have selected for it to run during the whole movie, please write me and save me some time.

(8 hours later...): Well, the video was taking a long time to load, so I checked. I nearly fainted - my file was over 400 MB. No wonder. Looks like you guys will have to wait until I have time to create the Flash file for this. Sorry! Will just do photo blogging first. However, blogger's photo upload seems to be having some problems recently...
