And I always thought‎ that cool looking curved glass on those tvs and monitors was just for style. Oh no, it has a technical purpose. All of you engineers & tech heads will love this. ‎ > DIRECT LINK 0aFhzGEBQlk‎‎

How long do you think it will be before this technology is tried by the networks to replace camera operators for sports and other multi-camera events?‎ According to a setup and demo video, it costs about $400 and there is quite a bit of pre-calibration required‎. SoloShot.com > DIRECT...

Yep, it's just a matter of time until this is tried to replace a workforce in the field. And based on what is shown in this video with object handling, if you are a warehouse worker or object handler in any capacity, you should be concerned. > DIRECT LINK 9kawY1SMfY0

I was watching a few of this kid's multi-camera FPV powered paraglider videos on Youtube & eventually saw one where he was using an interesting self-leveling aerial camera platform that provides a rear or chase view with a camera that is mounted in a conical sock attached to a lanyard connected...

I'm aware of how in the field the law will sometimes use their flashlight, aimable spot, takedown or alley lights to temporarily blind a suspect while a witness anonymously IDs them a short distance away in a shadow, like in a brightly lit line-up room with mirror glass at the station. I also...

After decades of hearing the emergency alert system messages on tv and the radio, can someone, such as some of you head-end or broadcast engineers from the tv and/or radio worlds, please explain why the recording quality of the messages has never improved? The worst ones are the synthetic voices...

After looking through some old tape stock in my modest archive library comprised of source, work and finished product mix tapes in various formats such as, 8mm ME, mini & full DV / DVC Pro, 3/4" U-matic SP and Beta SP collected over the last 25 yrs, the memories started coming back along with...

I was a little suspicious of A&E's 'live' police ride-along show, LIVE PD, when I saw it back in 2016. Does anyone else think it's actually shot and switched live to tape and then aired later or is it really switched and aired live? For those not familiar, this show has multiple camera crews...

Does anybody else find it a little disturbing that at least one production board, maybe more, has been tracking its members' work history (shows) along with other related crewmembers that worked on the same show you and others did? I've been a member of a huge production site for 15 yrs where...

Reporters using phone or tablet to show pics & docs before cutting to a liveshot pkg Other than going live shortly after exiting the truck with very little to no prep time, why do reporters hold up their phone, tablet or laptop and lean into or walk towards the news camera's lens or the camera...

Does anyone know why the local and network news editors use that annoying PiP effect with blurred and/or pushed (blown up) same-source borders when airing vertical mobile video? I'm really tired of seeing it. A static black or colored, even subtley animated, background would work fine but using...

Other than being used by emergency crews and civilians with car trouble, when traffic is backed up on an interstate is the emergency lane, left or right side, off limits for media crews to use as access to get closer to an MVA or whatever may be causing the backup? Does this vary from state to...

Some of the folks allowing unacceptable content to be shot and aired should be reminded what level they are working at with the following statement made by a network anchor that was fed up with half-assedness. The entire video is great but the best line at 2:32 is, "This is prime time television...

Did anybody else notice the incredibly bad lighting during the CNN AC360 Trump interview out on location last week? It was just unacceptable for something at that level. First of all, it seemed to be a bit washed out as far as color. Their skin tones & hair weren't rendered accurately. I think...

Does C-Span use fulltime camera operators or do they just use locals with little experience or volunteers when they travel? I've never watched C-Span at length before but after watching a few presidential candidate interviews in the last week, I just couldn't believe how bad the lighting, audio...

The Amateur Broadcasting Company is at it again. Did anybody happen to see the 20/20 episode 2-3 weeks ago when they went after the underground counterfeit pharmaceutical market dealers? Well, they must have put out an open crew call on Craig's List or used one of the new crowdsourcing apps to...

Did anybody else happen to catch 60 minutes a few weeks ago when they interviewed Syria's leader in a formal sit down interview? It was disclaimed with the fact that the interview would be allowed only if a local crew shot it. Either their Tx / Rx batteries failed, they didn't monitor sound...

Drone Operator Screen Credits I was watching a History Channel documentary about the high tech locks on the Panama Canal and noticed all of the RC helo shots throughout the show. This was a perfect aerial tool for this show. Then I saw the screen credit for the drone operator unit. At least...
