fireworks issues

I have encountered a problem with macromedia fireworks. The programme wont allow me to save my work because i have no disk space. However, i have looked at my disk space and there is easily enough to save the work i need. I looked on the internet and found that i needed to copy and paste the images into another fireworks document for it to save. I tried this and it was successful.

Story board/other products

My story board is complete and my final products excluding my music video are nearly ready to be uploaded onto blogger and get feedback. I have use images i have collected whilst filming to create my CD cover and poster. I am now waiting to get a digital camera to take photos of my work and upload them to blogger. From this i will get feedback and make changes if necessary.

Recording technique

Recently i have purchased a zoomh2 portable recorder. It will help me to record the instruments and vocals and make it easier to put onto the computer. The quality is also good and will be suitable for my music video.

What now?

From now i am going to work with my digipack work, and complete unfinished music video editing and so forth at home. This will give me more time to work on it and hopefully i will produce a higher quality video from this.

Footage

I nearly have footage for two songs, which they both link into my plans. In addition i am going to edit and play with the footage at home to decide which one is going to work best for my music video.

which song?

So far we have about 5 complete songs with lyrics guitar and drums. We have decided to go away from the acoustics and produce a more solid rock n roll genre.
Currently i am playing drums instead of guitar, this adds a more rock effect to our music, however we are struggling to find a bass player to complete the band. This means that for the purpose of my music video, i will have to play the bass seperalty and edit it afterwards.

music?

As the band has now getting more and more recordings i am considered using a different song for my music video.
