    OpenCut.org describes their new film competition as “completely open-source” and “designed to encourage people to take professionally shot material and edit it in their own way.” Explaining that “there is no ‘one way’ to tell a story,” the competition is looking for their footage to be “re-edited and re-told from many different vantage points and perspectives.” Read the rest of this entry »

    In his On Language column in Sunday’s The New York Times Magazine, William Safire writes about the three phases of language “compression.” The first phase occurred centuries ago, when contractions like “won’t” and “you’re” were introduced, much to the consternation of contemporary linguists.

  • A Sound Start – Camcorder, Mic and Mixer

    (Successful post-production requires solid production. Here is one in a series of production tutorials designed to improve the ultimate edit.)

    The oft-stated yet still under- appreciated reality is that audiences will forgive mediocre video but not sub-standard sound. Solid audio recording offers better choices in post-production, and separates your work from that of an amateur.

    Listed below are the steps to set up an external condenser microphone, a basic field mixer and a prosumer camcorder – specifically, audio-technica’s AT8035 Line + Gradient Condenser Microphone, Sound Devices’ 302 Compact Production Mixer and Canon’s XH-A1 high definition camcorder – to capture audio in the field.

  • Sony PMW-Ex1 Post Workflow in FCP

    Another great contribution from great Contributing Member, Mike Greenberg of KonspiracyStudios.com:

    The Sony PMW-EX1 is a solid reply to Panasonic’s HVX200. I love tapeless, but for some folks think it’s a bit confusing. Like the P2 workflow, there are a few adjustments when using the EX1. In fact, the EX1 requires a new mindset. Don’t be fooled by conventional tactics; you can’t just search the card for a file and hit Command-I. Read the rest of this entry »
