Hi Bob,
I found you on Creative Cow and need your advice. I am in the process of equipping a small portable production company. I will be using the Sony EX3 cameras with the Panasonic AV-HS400A switcher. We will be doing various types of productions including small to medium size event productions, seminars, studio interviews, on-location taping of shows (ex: cooking shows, etc…). Need inputs for powerpoint, CG, titling/lower 3rds, etc…everything needed to have a basically completed product on-site after taping, to include DVD authoring…
What switcher ad-on boards (HS04M2,M3,M7???, etc…) are necessary to incorporate lower 3rds, character generation, etc…?
Also, would you mind giving me your recommendation for the remainder of the necessary equipment
