7 times I hadnt learned my lesson about backing up my shist (im thick)
1st time- back when the project was called Beyond the wall, everything was on a 16 gig flashdrive, and just stopped working all together
2nd time- project still was beyond the wall but was rewritten heavily, laptop dies, and along with it, BTW.
3rd time- project is rewritten, becoming less like what I had planned at the start. ANOTHER flash drive dies
4th time- more revisions, new title, file dies while being backed up (i actually chuckled with the irony)
5th time- redone, a change of style, I have no idea what happened, the Maya files just didnt want to work, may have been the douchery of a virus
6th time- SWITCH TO BLENDER!!! Rewritten, change of style, transfering to a backup, everything comes in all jacked up
7th time- rewritten, better modeling, mobile hard drive dies of sucking.
now is a new project, a new story, and new moves!! working as hard as ever, bloodying my knuckles in 3d!
COME AT ME BRO!!!
Start keeping files on a cloud service or 2nd hard drive update once every week. It's a real life saver. Get yourself into a schedule of doing it alarm on your phone. Mine goes off on Sunday morning.
ReplyDeletethanks for the advice. im not very knowlegable about cloud services. do you recomend any? is the quality or speed dependant on your internet connection? i live on an indian reservation and the connectivity isnt very good so i dont know how that affects it.
