Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

Just an idea for those of us in Southern Calif. Maybe get together once a month to network, share tips & tricks and screen footage. We'd need a location with a video projector and large enough to accomodate a good size group (which I'm sure we would grow into.) We could bring in experienced Hollywood DP's and directors as well as indie types. Get Panasonic and others to donate prize give-aways and generally have a grand old time talking trash about this damn camera. Any takers?

darn good idea, too bad I am on the other side of the country. I guess that is sortof what this place is for though, but being in person would be cool.
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

Thanks for the support Detroit. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like any of my brethren here in LA share the sentiment. :-/
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

Thats ok, whenever I visit LA i will be sure to let you know and we can go cause havoc with our DVX's.
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

October it is .. Passion, no DVXuser party, I am just going to the Hollywood convention.
Anyone else going?
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

Hey Im in the metro Detroit area, anyone else from around here? Perhaps we should form our own users group here?

How so? Do you wear flood pants or something? Groups are useless, if they don't support all levels of inexperience.
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

i don't blame him, i went to a Adobe group a few years ago and everyone treated me like a complete idiot because I didnt know jack **** about layers. Never again. At least in this forum i can say my stupid stuff and if someone makes fun of me there are enough of you cool people here that you would probally pick me up off the ground.
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

There's an Atlanta Videographers Association here, which I joined and they are terrific. It's just a great group of people with a common interest. We've had speakers from JVC, Sony, Adobe and Matrox since I've been a member. It's been great.

P.S. snobs don't scare me, they just annoy me.
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

I'm in Los Angeles , where is the meeting place?
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

I'm in San Diego. Don't have a DVX yet but i'd like to meet up with you guys anyways ;D
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

I'm in San Diego (North County)

Not far from Orange, er, I mean the O.C.

Does anyone really call it that?
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

If you would like to get together in Orange, Orange County I think I can get a place to meet. If you are interested email me at ckalan1@sbcglobal.net

Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

I have to say, when I first posted this idea I hoped there'd be some real interest in getting a group together, but at the time no one seemed to jump on the bandwagon with me. Then I thought, "if I build it they will come." So I started looking for a place to meet that had screening capabilities. I also made several calls to Panasonic (as well as to my local dealers) to see if they'd lend support to the group (demos/speakers, free giveaways, etc.). But after a couple of weeks of trying I came up dry on all fronts and decided to get on with my life and go shoot some video. I'd still be interested meeting if someone else spear-heads it. I've got plenty of stuff to show and am pretty knolwedgeable about the camera at this point. O.C. is bit of a drive for me but a weekend afternoon might be doable.
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

I do not have anything to show anyone at this point, but am sure I could learn alot about this camera. One good thing is, if one of us is shooting a project and requires a second unit, or just another DVX for coverage.....
 
Re: Southern California DVX 100 Users Group

24P, dont fret about no supoprt from Panasonic... seems they dont give a damn about most people and this camera.. Quite a shame actually.
