OK. So I walk in on a friend who was looking at all the mindless celebrity clips on TMZ.com. Of course, I never watch that stuff, but my friend, well ... anyway. But I digress. I look over his (or her) shoulder and they make you watch a "Sponsor Message" (in the old days, we used to call...

This is one of the weirdest gags I have ever seen ... http://www.milaadesign.com/wizardy.html I tried it several times with various different numbers (resulting in a different symbol) and it still worked. If someone could explain how this works, it would save me a trip to church ...

Yeah, we're in ... Why? ... because we can! And we're not getting any (younger) ...

I was tempted to post this in the "Lighting" thread, but having given it some thought I think it's better here. A question: When shooting during the magic hour, is it your practise to manually set white balance according to your scene or set your camera's white balance to a specific setting...

Yes, there are some errors, but here is a sample of some interesting footage (IMHO) I captured with a Canon 500mm mirror lens attached to a Redrock M2: http://www.esnips.com/doc/d01a4aeb-2325-46b0-b8ff-74e616baec20/Focussing-on-Foliage-Low-Res-060803.wmv Watch for the doughnuts.

Bucketman. The name says it all.

I tried getting an answer to this problem elsewhere without success. Perhaps one of the Vegas gurus here can assist. Here's the problem: I want to render from a HD 1280x720 .m2t file "translated" by CineForm Connect HD into a Connect HD .avi file to an HD 720-24p MPEG-2 file (thus preserving...

Here is a clip of a fully zoomed shot with pan using the stock Fujinon lens and a clear filter on the HD100U: http://www.stickypod.com/stickypod_upload/uploads/Downtown%20Vancouver.mpg The buildings in the cityscape (Vancouver) are between 5 (nearer buildings) to 10 (further buildings) miles...

Anyone have a suggestion for solving the following: I have captured numerous .m2t files to my hard drive using Vegas 6 (latest version 6.0d build 210). No problem and no issues - I can load them up in Vegas and edit all my .m2t files - except in relation to the one file I want to edit. The...

Be gentle. Or not.
