Not to brag, but I had simple scenes going within minds of using MyDMX after assembling my universe and makng my custom library files as needed.
Take your time Dean. Just stay patient.
Step 1: Assign channels to units.
Step 2: Save
Step 3: Play
Step 4: Save
(every even step should be a save!)
Have fun!
Right now I'm working on a big show and MyDMX is doing the job just fine. I've had some complex scenes, but I've managed to get the job done so far. I have around 20 pages of script to go, not all pages have new scenes and changes. I want to get the scenes done by end of day Friday and bust out an animatic on DVD before Friday to hand to the director.
Too many drafts: BluRay transfer to make working video. From there, further edits to make "work DVD", which I am basing my animatic off of(it just has more chapter marks). Now to get the entire set of scenes in MyDMX to work properly. Fortunately, I have some cheat options to save myself SOME amount of frustration. My show has to sync dead-on to video PLUS with check-points and over-rides at all scenes to ensure if something gets off, we don't stay off very long.
