I googled "Mac opening multiple apps at once"and found several hits, one of which was a video showing how to create an automator application to do this. Although it wasn't a blind oriented video, it was relatively simple to figure out. Now I have an application on my desktop called "Video project" that when opened, opens up all the apps I need to do my work. Also, I have the added bonus of successfully writing my first automator app. It's not so hard once you get over the hump with your first one.
