I tried posting in 'General' and got no response, so will double post here..........
Recently we have been looking at new cameras for an upgrade of our gear in the next year. We have undergone a number of trials, which are still underway as we speak. I don’t want to get into that at the moment, but the change in what we shoot on has posed some new questions on how we operate.
So I want to put it out there………
Has changing to a ‘tapeless’ format made a huge change to the way you ingest your material and how do you do it?
For example, for years we have had reporters who horde tapes on their desks, we take a week to tape turn before they are erased, tapes are handed willy nilly to anyone heading in the direction of the news room! And so on. I think you get the idea.
There was a lot of hype about a ‘paperless office’ which never really happened, so I was wondering about the tapeless office.
I am looking for feedback on how things may change for the better or the worse.
