2 products i have looked at using in the past are a Tricaster TCXD300
https://www.newtek.com/tricaster/tricaster_tcxd300.php
and the more expensive Broadcast pix https://www.broadcastpix.com/Products/Slate-100.html
They are All-in-one production in a box tools, they will let you switch live video playback clips add graphics, and i believe both have the ability to green screen and do virtual sets. Your work flow here would be record all your cams via SXS or optical disc for your iso and edit later. with the switcher you would record your line cut, which of course can be imported into your NLE
these can get a bit spendy tricaster HD starts around $14,000 list. But they are powerful little tools

There was a intro before the group but they only used a spotlight. we always have a had a terrible time when we try and white balance to just a spot. After reading these comments I’m guessing,it was as mentioned, and the spots are more in the 5200k range. which now makes sense becasue they always do have a blue cold look.
I will talk to our lighting director about getting some CTO Gels (correct?) to use in the spots when we do video Imag. Also i don’t think that when we white balance to just tunsten lights, any of them are at 100% intensity so we will also give that a try. Our next show is Wednsday and then we have a different show that following saturday. Thanks for all the advise. sometimes when you don’t know where to start all you need is a gentle nudge in the right direction. Thank you ALL for the nudge. 🙂

Believe it or not we have had a couple of touring dance groups come and preform and no they didn’t use any white light everything was color. Usually though most groups do use some white light.

WE do, do a Multi camera show (usually 6 cameras) so color Matching is what we want. When white balancing would we use the non geld tungsten light even if none of the actual show lights are un-geld
does that make sense.

I’m with you this camera is really exciting!!! I don’t care about codec either, my plan would be to connect via a Nano Flash record 220 mbit. i think panasoinc has hit the nail on the head a DSLR-like camera but in a Real Video camera form factor, can wait to see some test footage 🙂 I know what they had at NAB was a early early test model but i wonder what else the’ll put under the hood when all is said and done.

March 22, 2010 at 8:02 pm in reply to: Can I do ‘Picture on Picture’ with powerpoint on a tricaster?what we did to get this effect was to use the 3d transition which scales the video layer down in to a small square box and off to the bottem left edge of the screen. if you just do a half transition it will gives you that picture in picture look.

Not completly sure what your looking for or what your price range is but Tricaster might be what you are looking for.
