    If you cater to corporate clients, you are feeling the burn. If you are a creator of original content, you are most-likely very busy.
    They key in this up-coming depression, is to pitch and create original content for the corporate intities so use to overspending for video. It’s a habbit they held from the 80s and most think they cannot afford video services today as a result of having huge crews milk huge clocks for so long. The folks who can grab a camera, shoot a concept and post ot on their own as a one-man-band are the ones that will survive and thrive as budgets continue to be pulled. This is a trand that will not change once the economy starts turning around. They will have learned the reckless spending is just not something they have to go back to and will have grown use to the easy workflows that allow them to avoid the overhead of their own media departments. We will not see the old “video costs $2k per finished minute” mentality again. It’s been gone a long time… it’s just some didn’t know it.
    In a nutshell, if you are not evolving with the changing times, you are taking steps toward leaving the industry.

    I use em as a guidline. They are too nappy to use nativly anyway so I screen grab em then trace as need. I like to add real textures… dirt, cactus, real mountains, real water, ect.

    The reel is the deal. After that, it’s a personality test. People skills are more than half of the gig so that has always been the most importent thing to me.

    It’s a shame the dude who made this flick is so jaded. I doubt anyone knows Beatle Bob more than I do. I’d never flaunt that negativity on such a good-hearted guy.
    To yell theif at a guy with autism is to yell stupid at a retarded person. That is just cruel in my eyes.
    Shame on him.

  • Denise has unfolded the secret to getting around big business as we know it.
    Avoid it.
    The bigger the business, the worse the business dealings. I did not make this up. They go out of their way to be inefficient and slow paying.

    Yuo can change your import settings so it won’t resize or render at 720X540 for a square pixel import.

    As of yet, the bug that creates interlacing issues in precomutes when exporting reference fiels has not been addressed by Avid so you will have to do a video mixdown before exporting the QT reference to your DVD app.
