Tonight I was adding the new effects into the main timeline of the edit and WHAM!!! Bloody power cut. It's ok, i thought, because i had only just saved it so no work lost. Restarted the computer and opened Vegas to continue and thats when i felt like getting a gun and shooting myself. Missing file. Not one of the finished effects though, but the complete main colour corrected track. Ok, i thought. don't panic i will use my recovery software to retrieve the track. Waited an hour for the software to scan the drive and thats when my heart sank. the file is corrupt and irretrievable.
So the bad news is that i have got to start from scratch on the main track and redo all the colour correction which means that a May release date is now looking highly unlikely. Bloody typical. I had backed up everything apart from the main track because its over 50gb and i was going to back that up at the end of this week when i get some more disks.
Well its a sleepless few nights for me while i try to recover lost time.
