Hi carolina straight shooters,

I plan to get hvx when it comes out, but cannot afford the p2 cards, maybe we can share these cards or better yet, if there is a rental company in the area that plans to carry these P2 cards pretty cheap, please contact me. I am trying to make the transition to p2 a little easier on my pocket!?

I am in the triangle area, would love to see a hvx/dvx user group in the area.
email me...

One of the major rental companies that I know of in central NC is AV off of I68. I plan on getting a HVX but I might go the route of a firestore if it seems like a viable option.
 
thanks pyro,
I am new to the area. I might have to do the firestore option if the P2 becomes too costly. I feel so much better about the solid state memory and also trying to avoid the clunkiness of the firestore.
 
No problem...I wish I could afford to drop P2 prices but I'm still a student working full time...besides I just dropped enough on my micro35....

I am in temporary exile in Roanoke Va (long story), just up 220 from Greensboro and have been looking for a good rental house. Everything I've found so far is either in DC or Richmond. I would much rather go to Greensboro. What does AV offer and how do I contact them?
 
Cool, thanks. Do you know of any links to other filmmaking resources in NC?

Thanks again.

Dave Smith.
 
I'm in NC as well and I'm on the EVS HVX list. I would definitely be interested in starting this conversation again once the HVX is out (and I get my mind around the cam a bit).

Maybe we could pool other services/gear as well. I have access to a decent size conference area also that I could "possibly" get for free and it's centralized (Pinehurst for any golfers, the US Open is going to be there in two weeks actualy). There are lots of NC guys on this board so as this thing evolves maybe we could organize a little better. There's a vicious rumor that John Hudson is headed this way too.

Most of my criminal activity has been expunged from my permanent record and besides occasional binge drinking I’m not such a freak (that whole thing involving the strippers and the billy goats was a total fabrication) :laugh:
 
StephenV - nice website, u have a little monopoly going there. i am going to try to make it to the event at green bean. Also joined the yahoo group, I need to meet some film people here. My id: postoprem

The AV Company is much more oriented for Corporate Audio-Video functions and not production. They're a great company (I work with them a lot), but not really oriented for production. If you need projection or sound systems they are definitely the guys to go to (I helped them install a 16000 lumins! projector over the weekend for an event).

There are some decent rental places in the area though... try Harris Chewning for larger production equipment. They aren't cheap but they have a lot of stuff. In Raleigh you can visit Quail Video (On Glenwood) for smaller video ENG style stuff - again, not cheap but what do you expect we're in NC? Or you could call or visit me. I rent my equipment and skillz and love doing prodction work - I'm in Chapel Hill.

you can hit me up at www.pointandshootpro.com if yo have any questions

TIFN holds screenings of indie films every month - check out www.triadindie.com for details. I've screened several of my flicks there (I actually used to run it but Neb Rodgers does now).
 
All,

I'm just around the corner in Concord. I like the idea of a virtual studio, where we can all contribute or collaborate through creative, gear and labor pooling. Please keep me in the loop for any projects you have coming up.

How are the prizes awarded - to the collective winning team after the national contest is over? I didn't get a clear explanation from their site.
