2016-10-18 - BIRTHDAY DATE CRISIS (with a happy ending)
Season 2 - Episode 197 - 10-18-2016
Casey offers to Candice to organize tonight's date: dinner, barbecue, pho tai or something like that. Candice leaves. Short morning run. Later this morning he will go for a work out with a friend. 8.12 miles. Boosted board ride. Marcus, the Juice Press order asked him to join him for the workout. Global warming: late October, probably around 85 degrees outside. Lovely and terrifying. Juice Press Gym. Just next to the juice store. Not a commercial place. Only for people who really need it or that are able to connect with lots of people to share the health message (or something like that). Work out. They are exhausted. Free smoothing. In the Studio he explains that he should do that more often. Emily the professional trainer is amazing. After the super macho stuff, let's dive into the super nerdy things. How to deal with everything that he shoots. He explains that his main workstation (Mac Pro) is mostly used to display the godfather 1 and 2 in loop, but also to catalog everything he shoots. When he shoots in 1080p it is around 20 to 60 GB per day (twice because of the redundant backups) so 40-120GB per day. When he shoots in 4K it is around 300GB per day. He uses a tower with 24TB, it is full, the 2 Lacie NAS with 20 TB hard drives are also full. Today he installs a new G|speed studio XL NAS system. 64TB. He is very organized and that's how he is able to find old footage to insert into new vlogs. How he does that? Not very interesting, you just need a system and stick to it. He knows a daily vlogger that deletes all his footage the minute he clicks upload. He makes a drawing to explain how he organized his footage. Drive - footage folder - year - month - day - each camera (5D, 70D, drone, g7x). And that's it. It is so obvious that he was not sure if he really has to explain it. In the street, Marlan it there, nothing special. He goes uptown to meet Candice. Tomorrow is her birthday, he needs a idea for her, maybe a couch. They meet and shop for the couch. But they fail. Casey offers that they take a babysitter tonight. Uber ride. Candice wants a present today. Sunset. Restaurant. Candice smiles. Later they discover that she lost an earring. They go back to where they were before to try to find it. No luck. Or not... during the night Casey shows that he has found the earing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zlu5tkeTg9Y
