Motivation Needed
by Aaron Cadieux on Oct 28, 2009 at 7:16:39 pm

Hey everyone,

I've complained about my job on the Cow many times. I've complained too much as a matter of fact. But I seriously need some advice here. My bosses are out of town on a 2-week trip. I am manning the shop while they're gone. They left me with the task of editing a series of videos on educating the elderly about medication management. All-in-all there's going to be close to 10 hours or more of edited videos when this is all said and done.

Here's the problem . . . I've been here for four years, and been in the video industry for close to a decade, and this is by far the most boring video I've ever had to edit in my career. I've had to edit boring stuff in the past, but this is far and away the worst of the bunch. The script is dull, the subject matter is dull, and I can't seem to motivate myself to stay on task. My mind is wondering non-stop. What have some of you done in the past to get you through a project like this?

Best,

Aaron
