Thanks, Mark.
By “freelance crew aggregators” do you mean large AV recruiting companies? If so, yes.
I’m following up on your other suggestions as well.

I’m on it.

Awesome questions, Tim. Thanks

“Who do you want as new clients? Can you be more specific? what kind of projects are they doing?” “

I’m not picky. The last client would phone me a few weeks or days in advance e.g.: am I available Sept 2-7 for a gig in Dallas, Phoenix, LV etc.. They’d arrange eticket flights, cover food and on-site hotel.
The speakers are typically motivational, marketing.
Days are 12-18 hours.
My video goes to big screens, live-streamed to web and recorded for salable product.
I’d be paid within a few weeks.

Frankly I don’t really know what to compare it to; I don’t know what I don’t know.

“Who are they using instead of you?”

I don’t know. It seems they call me in when the job is particularly challenging, the stakes are high or there’s a last-minute need.

“if a particular kind of client isn’t doing your kind of projects, what would make them want to start?”

Some AV guys said their company receives requests for the services I provide but they turn them away, presumably because they lack employees with my skillset. (I’ve since reached out to this AV company and others).

“what’s your location?”

Los Angeles area, an hour from LAX and Burbank airports.

Please ask me anything you want. This is helpful.

Thanks, Terry, for your explanation of a zero crossing.

[Craig Jurkoic]

Thanks Ty. Good question.
I don’t;
I don’t want to do a 1 Fr crossfade.
I’ll explain.
I’m currently working on an edited project deemed exemplary by a nationally recognized digital media education / training company. The project includes lots of 1 Fr audio crossfades. I do not understand their value.
Since I don’t want to assume they’re editors are mistaken ( This company has access to the most knowledgeable editors on the planet ) I figured I’d ask you guys.
Does that make sense?

Thanks for the answers.
I’m not an audio expert. In summary I’ll take your answer as: “No, a 1 frame crossfade is meaningless unless there’s a click.”

In FCP I’m working at 16 bit, 48khz.

Two follow-up questions:

1. What’s “a zero crossing”?

2. If one frame is virtually meaningless, what is the smallest crossfade you would use in such a timeline? 2Fr? 3Fr? That is what’s the smallest practical crossfade?

Thanks, gentlemen.

what the..?
Now what kinda answer is that?
Hey, if I wanted attitude I’d have asked my kids!
