I made the decision after purchase of the DV camcorder that I was going to aim to computer-edit my films. A decision which was made with no understanding or conception of the trials and tribulations of computer editing - in particular the hardware problems of assembling your own editing machine - and having no friends or acquaintances who had ventured down this stony road! My next rash decision was to invest in a new computer specifically aimed at video editing. At that time I was not subscribing to any computer video editing magazine and nor had I found any good web sites on the topic! Madness to leap in the dark, which was what I did! See Computing for information on the trial and tribulations of getting a stable and supported video editing computer. I certainly seemed to learn more about computer hardware assembly and (in)compatibility problems than I ever did about video editing! So far I have taken footage in Sarawak and Sabah, East Malaysia; Kuala Lumpur, West Malaysia; Hong Kong; Japan; Mexico; and several hours of footage in south west China in 2000 and 2001 featuring ethnic minorities and their costume and textile skills.
