I've embedded below a grid showing where each group is saving and editing their filmed material. You can do general viewing, research, blogging work on any free machine, but these are the only Macs you can upload to + edit on. This is to try and ensure you have the best possible chance of getting a free machine to work with in frees etc. If we get the stolen Macs replaced in time we can adjust this.
You can see I've set aside four Macs for A2 - Mac3 has the latest OS on and iLife 09, so can recognise HD footage. The other 3 highlighted will shortly (no definite date yet, and you will find the Mac has to be taken out for up to a day to get the upgrade done) have the new OS plus iLife 11 to enable working with HD footage.
In terms of practice footage to compare HD + standard mini-DV, use Mac3 for now and copy your footage across when we get the other upgrades sorted.
I'm also hoping to get at least one copy of software to enable screen recording (eg to walk through how you used software) installed soon; I'll confirm when this is sorted.
Please make sure you pass on all rough cuts, sample scenes etc (with appropriate titles to clearly identify what it is and who by) to me as full quality .mov files (NOT project files - ie, export them!!!)
