    We have used iBiz for years…bought the server version and we keep track of all jobs including mileage and even hours for employees.

    Works great and has for many years!

  • Hmmmm, maybe the Motion Media Ball until maybe 7:30 then cut out early and walk over to Zelin-Fest…it’s nearly across the street from the Monte Carlo…although it’s still probably a 1/2 mile walk!

  • Ok if you’ve been to both, the Motion Media Ball and the Zelin Hard Rock party are on the same night…if you had to choose one….

  • No sign up or tickets needed? Just a business card and a positive attitude?

    Knock it off…you’re scaring me!

    Depreciation of gear is astoundingly short. It really is not an investment anymore because it changes so fast. but I have gotten 5-6 years of good work out of a small army of MacPros so they were worth every penny.

    One big difference is that there are so many players and so many ways to connect with a particular video project. Used to be the big production companies were the only game and they were in the white pages. Now we are bombarded by solicitations on Facebook, Twitter and more.

    Establishing and maintaining a solid base of good clients is still the key to all this chaos..and a little reinvention once in a while can’t hurt.

    I always think there is clear writing on the wall well before a change happens. Just reading the credit roll on highly effected movies over the past ten years you could plainly see the number of foreign countries and their artists plugging in growing rapidly. Why? Cost. Time to revamp the business model. Broaden the scope of your work to more than just features…don’t just sell to the movie industry, but pay some of the bills selling high end services to corporate clients or ad agencies.

    Diversify. With so many talented artists and even programmers, they could have spent some resources on developing a custom effects app and sell it at NAB. Could have kept them afloat perhaps a bit longer.

    Purchase equipment wisely. Technology costs have come down…find ways to save on gear and networking…drive arrays and the like.

    Advice for us all, really.

    ON the other hand the South Upper hall, other than Sony is a bit thin on interest for me. Gonna look at some digital signage and maybe some of the trades how booth display technology….but not too much up there except Avid…and surrounding Avid? Bupkis.

  • I was thinking the same thing. Simple editing in FCPx on an iMac might seem like easy breezy. But when I’m encoding in Episode, rendering in AE and still cutting in FCP7 the old Octo MacPro is the tool I would rather be using.

    And why is a Thunderbolt drive faster? Isn’t the rotation speed and access time etc the factors? A fast esata connection is plenty fast for drive access and read/write. Why would a Thunderboldt drive be faster especially if it is a 5400 rpm portable drive. Give me a Seagate Barracuda esata 7200 rpm any day.

  • But I agree that the new model of the cloud and the app store in managing multiple systems in a professional environment is murky water indeed. I have just 6 systems and it is not exactly clear what the future holds for maintaining these systems….seamlessly.

    I am pondering the same questions. Apple hardware (MacPro) is one thing, and the new OS model is quite another.

    Room for a third (linux) OS with competent software?
