When they say 'Send us samples of your work' ...

Sup ya'll,
Alright, my (long-term) gig has ended very abruptly and I'm looking for work. Hunting around the web for stuff to apply for (Mandy.com, Craigslist, etc), I've noticed that folks seem to want links to online reels or samples emailed to them.
As far as online reels, I get it. Mostly. I'm just a little lost when it comes to signing up for web space. Any video-friendly recommendations for a now totally-broke editor? I can work the HTML to build a site - that ain't no thing - but most of the low-end sites that I see have pretty puny bandwidth limits. I think ya'll can sympathize when I say that 200MB a month just doesn't cut it.
Also, what is the deal with emailing samples? Anyone ever had to do that? I don't do the 30-sec spot thing (which you can get down to size and still retain some quality), most of my stuff is long-form, so any advice in terms of compression codecs and settings?
Basically, I'm working off the idea that files need to be, say, 8MB or smaller. Is that right? Or do I just not get the idea of 'emailing samples?' (Multiple, smaller files OK?)
My reel - which doesn't really demonstrate what I can do, but that's a whole 'nother thread - is 16 minutes long in DVD form. I think I can shave off 3.5 minutes from that, if need be. But how do I get 12.5 minutes to somebody via email?
Any insight or experiences are appreciated.
And, oh, please, no links to Patrick Sheffield's reel, please. I'm depressed enough as it is - I don't need to see that (again) and fall off the wagon. Thanks.

I use he.net. I've been very pleased for about 4 years now. I wish I had my new site up so you could see...but it's still under construction.
What I have found is their servers are very fast, and have worked flawlessley for general clips, as well as client previews. I've actually found that, be previewing via the web, it sped up the editing process. No more, "well, I could come this afternoon and look at it, but I can't be there until 4." They just look at it at their desk and done. It's also made me able to hold onto a lot of my California based clients after I moved back to Iowa. Anyway. I'm rambling. Their servers are fast.
I get 5GB of storage & 100GB of traffic for $24.95/mo. They also offer 1GB storage & 25GB of transfer for $9.95.
Again, not a commercial, just a very satisfied customer.
I had a different host before, and their servers were slow. Took forever to begin playback of a video clip. Same clip on he.net started almost instantly from the same net cnxn.

They LIE! They WON'T SHIP IT TO YOUR WORK!!

All of these press releases, etc. that say "have it shipped to your home or work" blah blah blah! Such LIES!! They will ONLY ship it to your address on file with AT&T, which MUST be the same address that your visa bill goes to, which canNOT be a p.o. box.
So, for those of us who have our mail and bill sent to a box, but want our iPhones delivered to the address we will physically BE at on the 24th - we're screwed!
I'm sick of this shiznit

this really has been a nightmare!
I changed my billing address to match my shipping address. But then the AT&T site says it's delivering the phone on the 25th, and the Apple site says "between June 24th and July 2nd".
I know in all likelihood it'll probably show up on the 24th. But I already sold my 3G and I've promised to ship it out on the 24th when I pick up my new phone. This whole fiasco is going to make me a liar! And I leave on a cross country trip on the 28th. So July 2nd will screw everything up.
So now I've had to bag the nice idea of having the phone shipped to me, and just put in a reservation to pick it up at the apple store on the 24th. So you'll see me there, surrounded by 500 of my soon to be closest friends!!
ugh!
I thought public relations was supposed to be about making people love your product! I would have rather had them tell me the 27th, guarantee it for the 27th, and have them behind the scenes actually start shipping them out on the 23rd and surprise us.

What do Adobe employees mean when they say that customers didn't like CS when it first came out?

Every time I hear an Adobe employee try to defend CC they usually talk about a time when everyone hated the idea of the creative suite. Later these people all changed their minds when Adobe showed them what an incredible value the suite was. Maybe my memory is failing me here but I don’t recall ANYONE complaining about the idea of a design suite, not a single person. Certainly no where near the vitriol hatred that people are showing towards CC.
Everybody seems to understand the concept of buying in bulk. Just yesterday I needed a new stick of deodorant, when I was at the store they gave me the option of getting a discount if I bought four sticks of deodorant. It seemed like a good deal to me so I bought all four. We have been doing the same thing with software. Microsoft had been selling their Office suites long before Adobe put out CS so when CS came out it was warmly accepted. When MS tried the rental approach it was flat out rejected in the past and now Adobe is being overwhelmingly rejected today. They seem to have this attitude that if people would only try it they would like it but the approach has been tried and customers overwhelming didn’t go for it.

No, your memory is fine. The CS concept was accepted quite nicely as it offered a true partnership between the developer and end user ... with a discount for the user in supporting multiple titles. It was a win-win for both sides of the equation ... Adobe sold more apps, users received a price break over buying the apps separately.
Conversely ... CC doesn't offer any equity to the user whatsoever ... as Adobe wishes to be rewarded for their efforts no matter what they offer in the area of future updates, new and or improved features. Prior to CC, if a user did not deem new versions as worthy of paying the price to upgrade because that particular version did not offer any advancements, they could pass until there was a viable and worthy reason to invest further in Adobe's efforts. Plus, with CC, the user is left empty handed should they opt out of the subscription.
CC ensures Adobe will profit ... users? ... not so much ...
While users do receive something for thier monthly stipend to Adobe ... the traditional partnership of vendor and end user, the scales have tipped decisively in favor of the vendor.

When they say that iCloud doesnt count Apps, books, music, and photos as space...

Does this mean that all my apps dont count as actual storage space? let's say that I have Infinity Blade (take up quite a few mbs) would iCloud count it as a file that takes up part of the free 5gbs or not?

Hi there,
I've done something to my iMac and I'm not quite sure what happened. I went and changed the name on my "home" icon. When i went to my email- it needed keychain permissions- so i said ok. i'm guessing that it deleted my previous account. Ithen went to update some software (safari) and i needed to restart my computer. When it restarted- it opened up clean...email needed to be reset up, iTunes- empty- acts brand new; same with iPhoto- all my pics gone. I was able to find my documents-but no luck on the rest...And when I tried to save a new photo- it is telling me that my hard drive is out of space- leading me to believe that my music and photos must be on there somewhere...
I have searched- but to no avail. Not sure what to do. and I don't have any other "accounts" to open - such as my old name.
Anyone have any ideas?
Much appreciated in advance!

So many issues here!
1. You should never ever change the name of your Home icon - that's the short name of your User Account which is a total no-no. (Why don't Apple issue a grim warning when users try to do this?). Check out these old discussion threads which may contain something of interest or help :
https://discussions.apple.com/message/7069252#7069252
https://discussions.apple.com/message/4675452#4675452
2. This needs recovering from - see the first discussion thread (above). Your User Account is being treated as a new one, but your old data should be there - read the discussion
3. You must have been close to a full HD even before this happened? This is inadvisable - you should always have around 10% of your HD free, or at the very least, OS X will start to slow down dramatically.
Hopefully the first thread above will point you to a fix of your problem.

Re:560GTX Twin frozr II-What does MSI mean when they say 20% cooler?

Surely it can't mean that literally? I'm currently running FEAR3 at 80c with this card, does this mean i'm really at 100c if i use another 560GTX that's not twin frozr II? or if i'm running Black Ops at 64c now, does this really mean its 80c? Pls explain the parameters of this feature bec. when i saw my temps in FEAR3 i suddenly wondered what that claim was all about. My old GTX275 had almost same temps so what's with the new twin frozr II? Pls don't suggest an RMA bec the card ain't broke. it idles at 37-38c that means the cooling mechanism works its when it loads heavy games that it acts up.

Quote from: Bernhard on 20-July-11, 14:45:52
Disconnect the front 120mm and the bottom 80mm. Only leave your extraction fans and the side fan on and retest.This way the extraction fans will pull in the air and you may have a more "smoothed" flow of air.
With an ambient temp of ~29C your load temps with the side panel open are actually excellent, as the temp increase is only about 30C.
It most certainly looks like an airflow shortage for the GPU with your side panel on.
I for one like the cases with fully meshed side panels for that reason. Good example http://www.aerocool.us/pgs/pgs-b/bx500.htm
Ok i did what you suggested and while the peak temp in the Witcher 2 was 75c it didn't stay there too long, it settled at around 67c-68c and note this is with the computer case closed. i didn't bother test it w/ an open case bec. i know the peak won't even touch 71c i'm sure. My conclusion therefore is even w/ a closed case, the temps are nothing to worry about, is this a safe assumption now that we've tested this card w/ 3 different top games, Witcher 2, Bad Company 2 and Black Ops?

Cannot get downloads to stay even when they say successful.

Have windows 7. Had adobe reader, flash, air, and shock on PC from beginning. Now won't access any media-keeps saying need to download-I do-says successful, howevere, no show in icon or in programs. Frustrated-please help.

For iphone 4gs, i was wondering when they will send out an update that will finally fix the stupid text problem. When ever i open my textes, sometimes it would spaz put or something and wout take 2-3 minutes just to finally be able to see my text

I would go to my textes and it would take about 30seconds and then crashes, i would close the phone go back and it fail to open again then my phone and the imessages would spaz out. Its really frustrating. I do hard resets and everything but nothing fixes it. When will there be an update that fixes this problem? Plus there are times when i press to close my phone but it doesnt close, i try pressing multiple times after waiting a while a little bit later, it then closes....

There is no such thing as an iPhone 4GS.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these steps in order until the problem is resolved.
If these steps fail to resolve the issues, take it to Apple for evaluation.

What does it mean when it says it can't read your audio file on Flash CS4, because I'm using a working audio file and it is a supported file type?

question topic is my question

To set the Date & Time go to System Preferences->Date & Time. Uncheck the Set date and time automatically box if it is checked and set the date to before the date in the message.
As for safety I have had to do this when installing old versions of Aperture Apples photo program and have not had any problems I would recommend you close all non-essential apps while doing this to minimize any weirdness. Also if you are running TM (or another backup program) I'd recommend turning those off while you do this.
Once you are done installing the software recheck the box if it was checked and the date and time should reset to today.. if not you can set them manually.

Does anyone know how to keep all songs in the same album when they say featuring someone?

Each time I load a CD onto Itunes that has an artist who features another artist on that particular song, it puts it in my library as a separate CD even though it will have the same album listed. For instance Lady Gaga's song just dance features Colby O'Donnis that song is in its own spot while the rest of the cd is together that one song is separate and I don't know how to keep them all together. Someone help.

Get the Informations for that song and have a look in the "Sorting" area if there is something different. The data inserted there is just for how iTunes will order the songs.
If the Interpret in the general informations is "Lady Gaga" and in the sorting area is "Lady Gaga feat. xxxx" than you'll see Lady Gaga as the interpret but it's sort to a second entry "Lady Gaga feat. xxxx".

Recruiters mean when they say end-end implementation,time for support prjct

Does an enhancement project mean support project...
Do customers(COKE etc ) give companies (like accenture etc )separate contracts for support and implementation, could it mean accenture gets implementation and eds support?...
In job ads recruiters usually ask for ABAP consultants who have worked on 1/2/3 end to end implementations, does this mean the ABAPer should have worked in implementation as well as support ?? what i can imagine is support could last sometimes for 10 yrs or more so does it mean ABAPer should have worked in same project for 10 -15 yrs????

Enhancement project usually means a project to extended an existing implementation with new functionality/new module or the like. So, not support.
End-to-end implementation usually just means an implementation project. Maximally from blueprint (usually beginning of realisation though) through to the post implementation support phase (which lasts at most a month, usually).

I deleted my old Email account because I wanted to create a new one, and I did. However, when ever I send an Email from the Mail app on my laptop it says the Email was sent from my old Email and I just can not get rid of it.

I deleted my old Email and only used my new Email to set up the Mail app on my laptop. And the old Email is completely dead, hotmail.com says the Email no longer excists when I try to sign back in to it however my Emails remain saying 'Sent from Jordan [*old Email*].
I can't find a solution!!

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

DMP when trying to send a mail

Hi Experts
My client is on 8.81 PL04 and for only one of the users, when they try send an internal mail, it gives the following error:
Documents settings V Lettie\Local settings\applications data \ sap \ sa application has a problem
Diagnostic file c:\documents and settings\Lettie\local settings business one\sap business one 20110623160654.dmp was created. Please contact support and attached diagnostic file.
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Also to add to my comments, the dump file generated could be related to many factors like, the memory, the number of applications running on the client, add-ons etc. If this is one of I would suggest you to close all applications, clear the temp files , log back in and try. SAP will only investigate if the issue is occuring everytime and should be reproducible and there is a long process before you can log a message with SAP on dump file.

Sending audio samples to midi controller

i have logic pro 8 and i was wondering how to send chopped up samples of an audio file to my midi controller which is an axiom 49. for example, i wanna chop up some vocals and instrument loops from a song called dazed and confused to create a hip hop song and i ve seen it done before on youtube just wondering how to do it.

Not sure what you mean by sending audio samples to your MIDI controller. Maybe you'd like to play or trigger these samples from your controller? One way is to cut them up (lots of ways to do this in Logic) and then assign the resultant bits of audio as samples in the EXS sample player. You can also assign these samples in Ultrabeat.
You'll need a basic familiarity with editing in Logic, as well as some fundamental knowledge of the EXS sampler or Ultrabeat.

When they say 'Send us samples of your work' ...
