Q: when you fail to re-inventing the graphics department (that is at least what i gathered from reading this page)do you learn a better video editor?
A: go ahead and set a deadline, pick a song, write a song, record the song, and pray like hell that you  will find some way to make a video before the time runs out. and try to allow slightly more time than normal because i'm scared as fuck, and don't tell anyone the deadline because they will chew you alive if you miss. even if you don't tell them they'll probably make one up anyway that they thought you said
