DSLR: Using a Slate App

If you are interested, please contact me via the contact page ASAP… Looking for support (if a female volunteer is out there, we have one male ready to support now)! Again, don’t delay in responding. Its a great opportunity to meet people while interviewing them for national radio coverage on the Internet. The Digital Production BuZZ has a worldwide audience and your voice will get great coverage too!

GV Expo is November 29th to December 1st and is being held at the Walter E Washington Convention Center. The exhibit hall is open on the 30th and the 1st so you would only need to commit to those two days. Additionally – we only need to gather between 5 – 8 interviews per person over the two days. So there would be plenty of time to look around the Exhibit halls. We would provide all the recording equipment and passes to the Expo. I’m just looking for someone who could help with both days. Do you have anyone you might be able to help or can you ask at the User Group Meeting.

On a Mac, the sky’s the limit for creating professional video. With all the tools available though, it can be a daunting task to decide which ones offer the best solutions for combined efficiency and high-level results.

• How can you effectively communicate your vision to clients and crew?
• How should you calibrate your camera for multi-camera and green screen shoots?
• Is it better to do your keying in After Effects, Motion, or Final Cut?
• How should you set up your edit suite for efficiency and accuracy?
• How do you manage large amounts of media and a multitude of formats for multiple software applications?

In Video Made on a Mac, you’ll learn the answers and much more. Chocked full of practical advice and step-by-step instructions, each chapter provides insight on the critical components of production and postproduction that can make all the difference when you’re up against a tight budget and schedule. The accompanying DVD supplies you with project files and high-definition footage so you can follow along with the examples, as well as 50 training videos.
