I'm going to start my official training on my station's SAT truck, I've got some basics from one of the operators, even got a little reading material to boot. I was just wondering if there are any FREE online resources that y'all might know of? I scoured through an old b-roll posting, but the...

My co-worker Rob Cook was on his way to Houston to cover the Final Four, when he came upon a car that had crashed and was starting to catch on fire. http://www.lex18.com/news/lex-18-photographer-nominated-for-prestigious-national-heroism-award/ We're all obviously very proud of Rob, who is a...

Sorry for the repost, I need some quick feedback and wasn't getting it in the editing section of b-roll. Twice I've had issues with timecode being different than what a reporter logged off my camera. The timecode for sots was off by about 30-40 seconds. Example: reporter says sot runs from...

Twice I've had issues with timecode being off, after a reporter logged off my camera. The timecode for sots was off by about 30-40 seconds. Example: reporter says sot runs from 14:30 to 14:40, but after imported to Velocity, the sot shows up at 15:00-15:10. I logged a sot myself, just to make...

There is a 5 year old post that I already scoured over. I was just wondering if there are still any photogs on b-roll that can give me some info. Thanks, Mike

Considering all of the suck-ass jobs I've had, I really can't complain. I love what I do, but seriously why do these guys think they have it rough? http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2010/04/08/international/i121638D19.DTL&tsp=1

http://cbs5.com/video/?id=63242@kpix.dayport.com Whoever the photog is, I like your work. I've caught other pkgs you've shot w/Robert and enjoy em. However I can't shake the giggles, so no offense to you (or Robert).

This is the fourth natpkg I've done. It was a one day turn, about a subject not talked about much in California: Civil War re-enactments. OKay, it wasn't a CWR as much as it was a bunch of old dudes standing around in CW era costumes. This was originally slated as a VOSOT, that I decided to...

Hello Ok city/Louisville folks! Just wanted to get some info on the markets. I know both are strong shooting markets, just wondering which stations are the tops. Thanks!

I just wanted to share an experience I had over the weekend. On Saturday I covered a H1N1 flu shot clinic. The event was free to the public, hosted by a local county health department and so folks from across the county lined up by the thousands. I shot video of the line outside waiting to get...
