Making Progress on the PSW Deluxe Digitizing Embroidery Video Series

By
Hello everyone. I have been chomping at the bit to get these video tutorials done and out to you, so that you can see, learn, and practice digitizing embroidery designs in the Professional Sew-Ware® Deluxe (PSW Deluxe) digitizing software by Singer.

Video Production

Whew. So first, the production effort. I am a production house of ONE. That means I have to write the scripts, record the narration, edit, mix-down, and master the narration. Then I have to record the video portion, edit the video(s), add annotations, and the narration track(s). Finish, encode, upload and publish the video.

But I'm not done, because I have to write all of the supporting documents - concise and comprehensive video descriptions, companion blog posts, updates on social media - this my friend is a massive project management endeavor. There's a good thing I have my PMP (Project Management Professional Credential). Hey I'm in my element.

But, all of these tasks, which are typically done by a team of people, each having deep expertise in a particular task/function, are time-consuming. So, I thank you for your patience as I pull together quality content for you.

          What is DPP 4? According to Canon: Digital Photo Professional (DPP) is a high-performance RAW image processing, viewing and editing software for EOS digital cameras and PowerShot models with RAW capability. Using DPP you can easily perform basic and advanced editing and printing of RAW images.  DPP supports sRGB, Adobe RGB, Wide Gamut RGB and Color Management System (CMS) using the International Color Consortium (ICC) Profile. Digital Photo Professional is included in the initial software setup for your Canon camera.  You can also download the software from the Canon website of your country.
