PC VGA to TV Composite Video RGB Converter
I shot the video on a cheap Sony Handycam and then piped it to a couple of second hand VCR players via a Proxima Direct PC VGA to TV Composite Video RGB Converter.
I recorded and copied the footage back and forth a few times to introduce a little generation loss and then sucked it back into the Mac using a VIDBOX for Mac.
Productivity
I tracked all my tasks in Trello, which has the advantage of allowing me to check in on my phone and remind myself of all the work left to do at any time of the day, wherever I am.
Notes
Coding & Development
Media
Last year I released my first independent game, Her Story.
The footage was all edited in Final Cut Pro on the Macbook.
