    Options for small scale Blu-Ray/DVD duplication (25-70)

    Hello, I am looking into options for duplicating Blu-Ray and DVDs for the parents/students of a local dance studio. The quantity would likely be no more than 70 (mix of DVD and Blu-Ray) and I'm trying to figure out what my best options would be. I've looked at Disk Makers and their cheapest...

    GH3 What did I do wrong? GH3 Live Event recording doesn't look so good

    I wanted to ask about the exposure or brightness of the footage. A couple of you had mentioned that it was underexposed and I can certainly understand why, but at the same time I have to ask; what about the highlights on the girls that are DRAMATICALLY brighter in contrast to the background...

    GH3 What did I do wrong? GH3 Live Event recording doesn't look so good

    Before I describe anything, I want to sincerely apologize if this is not the most appropriate area to post such a question in. I recorded a live event recently and set up the camera as best I thought but after watching them on my PC, they just don't look that great. I figured that the GH...

    What kind of tricks have you used to handle photographers caught in event footage?

    I shot a wedding for my cousin and I didn't place very much importance on my work because I am the amateur that would be more likely to screw up a shot. So I tried to stay out of the photographers way instead and didn't try to plan with him (first major lesson learned) and the end result was I...

    'Replace With After After Effects Composition' in Premiere pro

    I recently, and for the first time ever, used the Replace With After Effects Composition option in Premiere pro to do some simple masking on a dance. I created the mask, animated it, and fixed the problem that I originally set out to fix. However, it seams that after effects is doing something...

    Rolling credits: Standards, methods

    I need to credit quite a few people (80-100) and I've never ventured into rolling credits before. Are there specific standards that should be followed that I might not know about? And is there a preferred method for creating rolling credits that most movies/films use? I've worked with the...

    1.75-2.00 hours on a Single layer DVD?

    I recently authored a DVD with the intent of duplicating it on DVD9 media before I found out duplication services will run at about 10-ish dollars per DVD9 disc. The quality settings for the disc I authored was set somewhere around 9 Mbps CBR. At the time I thought it to be finalized on a DVD9...

    HMC 150, native progressive recording in 24p only?

    I'm planning on renting this camera soon and 1080/30 p would probably be best for what I'm recording, but I'm worried about interlaced footage. The instruction manual for this book mentions that in PH mode, 1080/30p is over 60i, but 1080/24p is Native. I just would like to know if I record in...

    Dance recital; low light, and P2 card shortage

    My sister teaches and dances at a local dance school that, like most dance schools, hold recitals a couple of times a year. The guy that had been recording it in the past had been doing so with a small prosumer DV cam and the footage was always overexposed and just generally not very good...

    Can anyone suggest a company for DVD/Blu-ray Replication/duplication?

    I'm recording an event for a dance school here in the next couple of months and I plan on offering the final version on blu-ray as an option, as well as DVD. Unfortunately, it's not likely that many of the parents have blu-ray players so I probably won't need all that many blu-ray copies (which...

    AVC Intra, 1080/24p over 60i, 24pA, and 2:3:3:2?

    Greetings Dvxuser forum, I was advised to visit this forum for my not very strait forward question that I posted in the avsforum. It was suggested that I ask my question here, and I was even given a link directly to this section of the forum! I did do a bit of searching before posting this but...
