## Scout Lore

Things to know about scout, and why they act the way they do about certain topics, images, and various other things.

### Pixelated Tom Cruise

On August 19th, 2022, a pixelated image of Tom Cruise was created by their friend, Casey (not a member of JEGC). The image was sent via reply under one of their tweets. The image was quote tweeted, causing the entirety of the group chat to see the picture. Multiple people in the group chat continued to send this picture through iMessage, private DMs, replies, and the group chat. This picture terrorizes them constantly.

The sending of this image has since been suppressed, but still continues to haunt them.

### Buff Scout (tf2)

On August 12th, 2022, Scout tweeted "this is what i look like (real)" with a picture of someone's fanart of scout from team fortress 2. The only thing about this art is that he is completely shredded, which contrasts differently to how he actually appears in the game itself.

TF2 Scout puts on a heavy Boston accent, wearing a red t-shirt, khaki shorts with a black belt, a black hat, an ear piece, long white socks, black shoes, and white tape around his hands. Occasionally, he is seen wielding a baseball bat.

## Editing

Scout is no stranger to the world of editing, seeing as they started editing around the age of 12. They are completely self taught, only using youtube videos to teach themselves how to edit.

### The Early Years (2014-2016)

Scout started editing at the end of 2014, using the app "Flipagram", typically an app used to make slideshows. They used this until the beginning of 2015. After using Flipagram for a few months, they then started to experiment with iMovie, Windows Movie Maker, and Cute Cut Pro. By the end of 2015, they had switched over to Sony Vegas Pro, beginning the start of their real editing career.

The edits at this time of their life mostly consisted of Markiplier, Twenty One Pilots, and Supernatural.

### The Middle Years (2016- 2019)

By the time mid-2016 hit, They had started to try and make the switch over to Adobe After Effects CS6. Knowing the complexity of the program, they weren't quite ready for the challenge of learning an entirely new one. They would eventually switch between using Sony Vegas and After Effects in an attempt to gradually teach themselves. By the middle of 2017, they completely ditched Sony Vegas and made the permanent switch to After Effects.

By the time 2018 hit, they started to have more and more problems with their computer, resulting in a long 7 month hiatus. Towards the end of the year, they managed to receive a laptop from their friend, which helped them get back into the editing scene. On Christmas, they received a mac as a present, which has since been the main vessel for editing ever since.

The edits of this time were mostly Supernatural and K-pop (specifically BTS).

### The Present Years (2020-2022)

In the beginning of 2020, COVID-19 had hit the world by storm, causing the entire world to go into a lockdown. For Scout, it helped them hone in on their editing skills and get a lot more practice in. Towards the end of 2020, their interest in K-pop had started to fizzle, causing them to gain interest into movies and tv shows, sparking their love for film. Along with that new love for film came a large wave of inspiration for editing. They started making more and more edits than they had ever made in the past. The more edits that they made, the more they realized that this is the path that they should be following in their future professional career.

The edits in this current time frame mostly consist of various movies, tv shows, and actors that seem to spark their interest.
