Reminds me of the last time I was in Radio Shack, remember the ads? You have questions? Radio Shack has answers. What I discovered was their answers are: “HUH?” “Whats that?” and “I don’t know.”

Kewl, I knew it had to be something simple, I just don’t think in simple terms anymore, that’s too easy!!!

I’m originally from Texas, so mine is worse than yours.

Actually, I visualize many female stars, and the vectorscope traces showing the colors they are wearing.

[Mark Suszko] “Actually, i believe if you examine a color wheel, what you want to use to kill spill for gelling the backlight on green screen is magenta, not blue”
Yep, I thought about that after I went to bed, and visualized a vectorscope in my head. I intended to correct the statement but you beat me to it, thank you for noticing.

[Tore Gresdal] “But it is a totally different scenario if the system is 2 frames off one time and 5 frames off the next… In the light of your response I take it that it is the case, and that I have just run lucky so far. “
No I have not had the opportunity to find out, I have only been associated with top quality systems, that have reliable timecode, no delays to contend with. I was just responding to the comment that accurate time code was not important. I really don’t mean any disrespect, only making observations. I would presume when speaking to or about students, any comment could be taken literally and cause problems later on when any of them should happen to enter the real world of professional video.
I have found this thread quite interesting, and many points are absolutely correct. Most of the people I have worked with learned their craft under fire, as I did. Never had a checklist to work with, and in many cases not enough time to go through a checklist before shooting. YOu had to rely on your equipment and the fact that you (hopefully) used it last and it is set the way you want it to be setup, or the person who used it last was also a profesional that took pride in his equipment also.

[Tore Gresdal] “But why is frame accurate batch capture so important…? “
Ever need to revise a program, commercial, etc? Ever want to use a previous sequence but with original footage? Try this without frame accurate time code and you just might end up with some bad cuts.

Now, that’s what I’m talking about.

Thanks for the explanations. As for editing, I still edit where it feels good.
