Hey Ray, Thanks for the fast reply. Yeah, I was probably looking at a run-and-gun type of setup Don't really know much about the DSLRs although a buddy of mine who does music videos has one and the results look pretty good. He doesn't really have to worry about recording sound though. I did...

It's probably about 4 years old, so getting on I guess (are DVD player years like dog years?) And I did try it on my neighbors and it worked, but then I took it to an electronics store and it didn't work on theirs... You reckon its just a matter of crappy DVD players then?

Hey gang, Not gonna ruch out and get a new camera tomorrow, but I'm just curious as to what people might recommend to replace my Canon GL-2. I really like it and it still works well, but in the next year or so I'm going to want to probably go to HD and I just wanna know what people would...

Hi everybody, Just had a quick question: I'm putting together a wedding video for my brother-in-law and I want to make him some DVDs. I've edited it all together in Premiere and it looks good, but when I burn the DVDs and try playing them on the TV there is problems with the audio. It plays...

So, I tried again using the 'MPEG-2 DVD' setting for Format, and the only thing I changed from that was to raise the quality to 5 on the Video settings section and to tick the boxes that say 'Use Maximum Render Quality' and 'Render at Maximum depth'. I did one using just one chapter from the...

Hey Josh, thanks for the quick response. Thing is I shoot in SD, so I'm just a bit concerned about the whole PAL/NTSC thing. Been through a lot of the online tutorials, but most of them seem to focus on Hi-Def, Blue-ray, and/or exporting for the web. Guess I'm a bit behind the times with...

Hey all, I had a couple of questions I was wondering if anyone could help me with. I'm new to Premiere CS 5.5, but have got the basics down well enough as far as editing goes, however I had a bit of trouble last night trying to export to DVD. The main problem was that the color was off in quite...

Hi guys, I have a question I could use some help with. I am using the 30 day free trial version of Premiere CS 5.5 and would like to make a DVD. The trial version does not include Encore which is the usual DVD authoring software from Premiere, but I really need to get going with this ASAP. I...

Thanks for the help. What do you think about this one? http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=851785&CatId=4928

Could you be a bit more specific? I know what the recommended specifications are from having a look on the Premiere website, but it says those are basically the minimum requirements and I was curious if there was anyone out there who is running CS5.5 now that could tell me what kind of a set-up...

Hi, I need to purchase a new computer that will be specifically for editing. I want to run Premiere CS 5.5 and I'm debating about whether to go with a PC or an iMac. I want something that will be powerful enough to where I don't have to update every year and that will allow me to export large...

I try to plot it out first, basically figure out what I want to happen in each scene. For my first movie I decided I was going to have 40 scenes, so I thought about what I wanted to happen in the first scene, then I wrote it down, just 3 or 4 sentences. Then I moved on to the 2nd scene, and so...

I use Final Cut Pro to edit on my Mac (Powerbook G4). 1 GB OF RAM. I don't know much about computers either, but my set up seems to work well for me. To edit you will of course need editing software. Again I have somewhat limited experience, so all I can recommend is what I have: (a GL2...

You're right about the lack of an XLR adaptor on the GL2, but Canon sells one that fits right on the top. It's called the MA-300, and it costs about $150-200, but it works well and is absolutely worth it.

Ass pimples... That's what's been keeping me out of porn.

I don't really have much experience with HD, so I'm probably not the man to ask. I'm guessing the picture is better with HD, but as everybody will tell you (again and again but with good reason) the quality of your camera is only part of what makes a good looking movie. Lighting makes a HUGE...

I guess just check to see that they have good customer feedback. Call em up and talk to manager to make sure there aren't any hidden charges. You might also want to look at exactly what is included in the price. Sometimes they only include the bare minimum and make you buy other stuff that...

They shot it with a Bolex same as I used at Penn State when I was 19. For some reason their movie looked better than mine though...

Just checked and here are some places where you can have a look at the GL2. One place seems to be offering it for $799, which would be a great deal if it's legit. All the rest are around $1600. Anyway, here it is: http://www.shopcartusa.com/P_Canon_GL2_7920A001/View_Reviews/

I can't say I've used a lot of different cameras because I haven't, but I have a Canon GL2, and I'm pretty happy with it. It has a nice lens, manual controls for the iris, shutter, focus and white balance, 3CCD's, and there is an attachment that goes on the top that will let you hook up an...
