Project as of 12/5/09

Another day, another post about the update of the project. I continue to have my doubts on my project, mostly because I want to make it really good. The presentations on Wednesday did not help too much when it comes to confidence. But no matter, I will do my project my way.
I got some live shots of the hockey game from the TNH. Some of them are really good and I think it can add a lot when it comes to my project. It will be better than some of the hockey pictures than I had before.
Anyway, I went to the hockey game last night and got some recordings on the chants again. The audio is not even as close to as good as the one I lost because 1) it was not again Maine and 2) no one is passionate about facing UMASS Lowell. They are the #8 team in the country. To have the opportunity to dethrone them out of the top ten ranking in the country could gain monumental confidence in the hockey team. But that is okay because the student section was once again sold out. In the beginning of the game, the crowd was pretty loud. In the middle of the game, the crowd was quiet because the Wildcats were not playing particularly well. In the end, the crowd got into it and the recordings got better. Once I get the audio put together, I should be able to get to the next step, putting the audio, video and photography together in IMovie.
My last objective is to talk to the director of the ticket office. I have to wait until Monday if I can even talk to her because she is traveling with the UNH Football team this weekend. She was initially annoyed at me because I did at the last minute. I did then say I notified someone on Tuesday which gives you or someone else time to talk to me. She was okay afterward. I am concerned that she will not be committed to the interview on Monday. If it does not happen, then I may just have to talk about the tradition of going to the game, which I guess will not be too bad. It's crunch time now. Whatever happens, that's life and there is nothing I can do about it.
