Just letting anyone interested in the new GM headed to WACH, the Fox affiliate for Columbia, SC...Jim Bleicher is a great guy. He's been in news since forever, and he was the best news director I ever worked for. Jim's a great person to be leading any group of people. I know WACH is going to...

Hey all. I did some searching, but couldn't wade through very well, but the college is looking for a good steady cam system. We're shooting with a JVC HM-700. Any ideas? Thanks. (I posted this in General Discussions as well.)

Hey all. I did some searching, but couldn't wade through very well, but the college is looking for a good steady cam system. We're shooting with a JVC HM-700. Any ideas? Thanks. EDIT: Oh, and how about a wireless video system for our camera. thanks

Have a safe and color-balanced New Year, everyone.

I'm looking for the best format to export video from Final Cut Pro to use the video on a web page. I've tried a bajillion settings, and haven't been happy with most of them. Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. photogguy

We just bought a Coles lip microphone, and we can't get levels out of it. Before I look (more) stupid and send back a working mic, is there something I'm missing about the mic? I've tried mic and line level. I've tried phantom power. I've tried it with two different devices, one being a...

Guys, As we're setting up our new studio and control room on campus, we're using the old video patch panels. A question has come up that I don't really know the answer to. Are the cables used in the patch panels specific to the manufacturer of the panel? The reason I ask this is because I...

The college is moving from tape to tapeless, and we're going to now acquire on SDHC cards. My question is, is there a difference in the memory card readers that you can buy at, say, Best Buy, and what we will need to read a 32g card with video on it. Thanks.

I'm wondering if you guys can point me toward a system to digitally store old video. The college has a bunch of 3/4 and BetaSP tapes that we're going to convert to DVD for storage. I'm wondering if there is a way to store this video digitally. Thanks.

I need help finding software that will help me download video from a website. An instructor is planning a conference here on campus and wants to show this video in the lobby in a continuous loop. I don't really want to hook up a computer and replay the video every ten minutes (the running...

When I clicked on my favorites to visit B-roll.net, I got a warning page saying B-roll.net is a suspected phishing site. Kevin, FYI.

I'm trying to lock multiple video tracks together (to find an easy way to have motion follow on many tracks) instead of putting in keyframe numbers to match the motion. There has to be a way to do this. Anyone know?

I'm relatively new to Final Cut Pro, and I have a question... In the Viewer, there is a green circle with a check mark in it. How do I make that go away? It bugs the crap outta me. Thanks

Did you see Bruce slide into the camera during the Super Bowl? He does a big slide...right into the lens. When the camera comes back, you see Bruce looking at the camera op, with a look of "are you all right?" on his face, laughing!!! liyXMJ7Fh1Q&start=220&end=235 The Boss put on a great...

I have a question I'm sure someone here can answer for me. I now work for a community college, and we're buying new wireless mics. When they arrive, they're just in cardboard boxes. We're using cases from the document cameras we're installing as cases for the wireless sets, but we don't have...

I've gone back to school to finish my degree. I need to write a research paper about digital editing technology, and I need a minimum of five print published sources about the topic. Any suggestions? I'm already going through a bunch of the trade magazines, and any and all suggestions are...

I got a new job. And it’s not in tv news. I’ve been working in tv news since October 17, 1988. I’ve often asked myself if I’d still be standing in the rain, snow, sun, whatever, until retirement. And the only answer I could come up with was…yeah, probably. This business doesn’t...

I just spent a week down in Virginia Beach, and loved it...well, except for the traffic. While driving down I-64, I saw that the on- and off-ramps had barricades in place for traffic moving in both directions. What are the barricades for? My guess is that the barricades are used during...

An engineer at our shop asked me a question, and I'm hoping someone here knows the answer. What is the back piece of glass on a lens called?

I have set up a wireless network in my house, and have gotten the second computer to connect, but I can't get it to connect to the internet. What am I doing wrong?
