    Seeking Sound Card and Video Card Advice

    Fancy terminology indeed! I was looking at these: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/318871-REG/Mogami_GOLD_TRSXLRM_03_Gold_1_4_TRS_Male.html because all of that sophisticated "shielding" lingo sounded nice-- since these cables would be extremely close to power cords as well-- but it...

    Seeking Sound Card and Video Card Advice

    Stoopid Newbie Question Okay, with my wife changing jobs right now, we have put the studio on hold for now-- but I did buy a new computer and it finally arrived. I opted for cheaper audio monitors for now (since my dream studio is at least three years away, anyway). I bought KRK rokits and...

    archived-videos Little test shoot I did - need your advice, please...

    I just watched it quickly on my phone but I liked it. i thought the light behind her was a) weird to actually see in the shots, b) a good key for the guitar, but c) was also distractingly blown out on her hair and the wall. I got a teensy bit of vertigo going up and down the bass so much, but...

    Prosumer Camcorder Shopping Help

    That's how much I paid for the Canon XF100, and I love it-- (but Directorik will advise you not to go with the Canon).

    Editing and Color Correction machine - buy or build?

    The one main reason I have found that the Quadros are in so much favor among video editing types is the 10-bit monitor support. (Unless your Samsungs are 10-bit, or you are planning on using 10-bit monitors in the future, I'd go with a faster, cheaper card.) Make sure your software will play...

    Editing and Color Correction machine - buy or build?

    I looked at them before I finally settled on ADK. http://www.adkvideoediting.com/choose.asp My guess is, you will want to pick your chip first and then get the board that will handle it. Compatibility is the only reason I went with a company that would assemble and test it out-- I had a...

    Film Festivals - Do You Go?

    As much of a newbie as I am, I have managed to make it one very nice local, but incredibly tiny, festival. I have also driven to several other cities for their screenings of 48 hour projects-- but no, I have not yet attended a major festival.

    editing A Stereo Warning!!

    On the flip side, what phasing issues (or other audio problems) arise when surround effects are pushed into the stereo field when folding a surround mix down to stereo-- and what is involved in solving such problems? Do you get the same problems when you mix for three and it is played on...

    Tip for a moving scene

    I didn't even know such a thing as a "cable dolly" existed... http://www.thewildclassroom.com/wildfilmschool/gettingstarted/cabledolly.html http://www.flickr.com/photos/davidvickersphotography/5564020057/ http://tommansfield.blogspot.com/2010/07/cable-dolly-shoot.html...

    A percentage off the profit

    You can plan to pay everyone if you make all your money back plus a percentage -- just don't tell them that up front! That could (at worst) constitute a verbal contract, or (at best) setup expectations that aren't likely to pan out.

    choosing a camera

    Was it that you really didn't like the limitations of the single 1/3" CMOS on the XF, or do you not like Canons in general for other reasons. A lot of people say the 50Mbps recording and 4:2:2 Color Sampling simply don't trump the single 1/3 CMOS.

    archived-videos New Movie Poster

    I like the poster. I also like the idea of giving a link to your FB to promote the poster. It might be a good idea to build the website before advertising the website on a poster, though. (And I noticed the title font on the poster didn't match the title font in the flash on the website...
