I closed up shop, ended all the contracts, and never looked back. I was DONE with programming, and everything about it.
I did some traveling, and got into making videos. Having a great time. My entrepreneurial spirit never rested, though. I started making videos and putting them on YouTube. I have always loved making videos, so it was a natural transition for me. Then, I started putting myself out there to do some video editing and animations (motion graphics). I enjoy making and editing videos for others almost as much as I enjoy making them myself.
Recently, I had a couple of projects cross my desk that screamed for automation. Doing some research, I discovered there is a way to code some processes in Adobe's suite of applications. It isn't very well documented, but I was able to figure it out, with the help of a few great forums.
This made me realize that there might be more jobs like this.
Now, I am back to coding. LOL. BUT, at least it is something that is integrated with my other passion in life.
I have been working hard at creating a new service that I am really going to push hard. It can be called many things; batch editing and bulk editing are two popular terms. I like the term "Automated Editing". To me, that just sounds nicer than "Bulk" or "Batch".
To learn a little more about it, you can visit my site that explains it a little more.
