OK, well this business section has been re-named, I hope my question is still on target. This is geared toward those involved in corporate video work, not film. (Although the same scenarios may apply?) I've been doing a lot of freelance work over the past two years, and my client base now...

Help out an idiot on a deadline here. I just purchased a lower 3rd quicktime file from pond 5. In the description, it claimed the video was rendered with an alpha channel and should be keyable over footage. the movie file is a .mov I am just getting the black screen behind it. How can I...

Searchers from the future: "What is a Honda Civic? And a Subaru Impreza?"

I'm looking for recommendations from fellow users on a good gear cart. (and perhaps a comical image from Pookie) Stipulation: It must collapse to fit in the trunk of a Honda Civic. I'm not looking to haul a TON of gear, just several bags. I think as well as functionality, I need...

Yeah, this thread has gone off in a quite a few different directions. ^ Wrong or right, I too have little sympathy for the record companies. And I don't know exactly what state the music industry is in right now, but I don't think it's very good from what I've read. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)...

EDIT: NOW ON eBAY For sale is my Canon XH-A1, original model and I am the original owner. It has been used, but I take very good care of all my gear and safely stored this camera when not in use. Included are all the standard battery, cords and cables. (I have the component-out cable to...

I tuned out years ago. Although sometimes I like to watch this one out of the corner of my eye while I'm writing my own stories. Once the blogosphere, Facebook and Twitter invaded 24hr news channels, I pretty much stopped giving them credibility.

I always knew you were a rocker.

I'd just like some opinions from the production community on a situation I'm dealing with. For years I've done TV spots for a local restaurant. Recently they've expanded locations and are doing quite well. Earlier this year, their new marketing guy requested several still images from the...

In 2005 I purchased my beloved DVX100a. Not solely to shoot weddings, but I figured if I had one, it would make me a viable player in the local wedding game. So for several years, I shot 2nd camera and made some nice $$ on the side of my full-time job. Money that afforded me the opportunity...

My question is on use of a short poem from the 19th century in a TV spot i'm currently working on. It will just run locally for the fall season. Is something like this eminent domain? It's fairly obscure, I can't even find a full bio on the author, only that she lived in the 1800's. Hell, at...

"Matt, you're grib, you don't even know what Ritalin is."

1st off, no time for a video, sorry. Maybe I'll revisit and bump this later. Says I came on DVXuser in Dec 2005. I'm just thinking back to how I got here in the first place. I bought a DVX in November of that year and was looking for some technical info. (like what does this red X mean?) I...

I'm just trying to see if anyone can help me brainstorm an idea. I'm working on a quick animated graphic for a client. Using a picture kinda similar to this one….. The client wants to show the arrows moving into the house. That's fine, I got that. But he also mentioned kicking things off...

Calling all my DVX brethren from across the pond: I will be visiting London with my wife next week and am looking for suggestions on the following: 1. Good pubs 2. Indian food That is all. :grin: Haha, any advice on places to visit/cheap & good food would be appreciated. The wife is going...

I shot a quick promo vid for my friend who is an executive chef. He was hosting the Samuel Adams beer dinner in Pittsfield, MA. 14267843 Canon t2i with a 50mm 1.4, the kit lens and a Tokina 11-16. I've seen & critiqued some food lighting in this forum, now my cards are on the table...

Looking for a medium sized Chimera or similar softy that would fit on an Arri 650 fresnel. So I guess a mounting ring would be a nice essential. PM me or post here with anything you might want to part with. Looking for item in good condition. thanks, Scott

x0BPejix42c jonneye has been posting up a lot of t2i skate footage. Here is our crew of "old guys" from CT/NY. We get together every weekend at a local park. Nothing technically great, but if you skate, enjoy!
