  • Viewing edit from a distance

    Posted by Peter Sassi on November 6, 2007 at 2:17 pm

    I remember at the Apple Event at NAB a couple of years ago where an editor could edit and a producer/director could watch and communicate via iSight or some setup like that andybody remember that or have used it?

    Thanks,

    Peter Sassi

    I’ve worked remotely a few times using this. I run the analogue output from the edit suite into a DVCAM deck (set to analogue input), and then hook the DVCAM deck via firewire to a laptop. Open ichat on the laptop and just tell it there’s a firewire camera. It treats the deck like a camera, the edit suite treats the deck like a deck. Result is that you can stream the output from the edit suite into ichat. Same thing works with skype.

    With OS 10.5 you might try using the screen sharing feature in iChat.
