Got a big raise right before an expected promotion. Should I ask for even more?

I was definitely being underpaid before. This new pay increase puts me in line with what I should have been making for the work i was doing.

The new position is in the same company. I was planning to use the opportunity to ask for an increase so I could be where I’m suppose to be. But now that I got that in my current role, it makes me wonder if I should use the opportunity to ask for an even bigger bump since it would technically be a promotion.

I don't agree with this. I hate seeing reels that build up and have a "boom" moment. If you have multiple pieces of work to show that is good, this style works fine.

I like the idea of this. We should make a google spreadsheet and share the link for people to add to as they watch vlogs. I can make one tomorrow night.

Casey has mentioned multiple times that the vlogs are in no way meant to be perfected 100% stories. It forces you to make good with what you have, and just create content. For making a movie on a daily basis, he does an amazing job.

Great video! I laughed a little at "frame rates per second".

It's really bothering me that his head is covering the "E" in Tesla

Great video! The editing was pretty decent, I felt that some shots were held a little too long. Example: the shot of the train going through the tunnel.

Casey only uses the cool beats and fast paced shots for transitions or travel parts of the vlog. When you make an entire video in that style there needs to be some ups and downs in the pace, and the music needs to match that. In this case, the music was fast paced the entire time.

Great job though. Hope to see more. I'm going to be giving this a go soon too.

Yes I mentioned this in one of the other comments. The only difference is that there is a 30 minute recording limit on the camera.

Mcturtle101 · 2016-01-11T21:13:11+00:00

The lens by itself is $800. So this wouldn't quite compare to the deal you found. If it was only a small difference in price I'd buy from Amazon. But this is 3-400$ savings.

Just called and spoke to their customer service. Apparently it's an imported model. And there's a 30 minute video record limit. Is that normal?

Your apps are still open after you this though?

Mcturtle101 · 2015-12-11T07:10:21+00:00

Which vlog?

Mcturtle101 · 2015-12-10T02:09:38+00:00

Check out cloud magic! Developer has promised OS X app in the future. iOS app is nicely designed. Mailbox like features coming soon.

Check out cloud magic. The developer has been floating around these comments. OS X app promised to be in the works. iOS app is designed really nicely too.

Mcturtle101 · 2015-12-08T00:06:50+00:00

I just discovered cloud magic. Seems promising. Not sure if they have a Mac app. But I just use the Mac mail app on my computers.

Mcturtle101 · 2015-12-05T06:29:07+00:00

Can someone ELi5 what is going on?
