Most of my work is corporate and events, 100% of the events work has gone away. Fortunately I have a few corporate Vlog and online training edits for the next month or so but beyond that who knows?
I started an online subscription channel a few weeks ago for my “hobby” business (Aviation and airshow films) so the free time is going to enable me to spend much more time working on that.
The next big problem for everyone might be the internet “slowdown” gets to a critical point where uploading and downloading video becomes a real issue. We’re into uncharted territory here!

[Bob Zelin] “These
things mean little in their lives. Well, let them go play golf, or whatever they do. THIS IS WHAT I DO, and I intend to be good at it until I kick the bucket. When I had knee surgery back in NY City and could not take the subway to work (I was living in Queens at the time) – I hobbled onto the bus with my backpack the NEXT DAY and went to work, and took care of my clients. If I was paralyzed in a car crash, or lost limbs, I would still be doing this. I look at people who are paralyzed, and they are at the gym, or playing in basketball tournaments in their wheel chairs, or “jogging” in their wheel chairs down a long block to keep in shape – these people are HEROS. You don’t give up. You don’t say “whoa is me”. You keep going, you keep pushing, you keep fighting, you keep learning.
I don’t live in the glory days of Quad and 1″ VTR’s. I need to compete with that 30 year old IT guy that knows more than I do – but soon, I will know more than him, and take his clients.
That’s my mindset. And it won’t change, even if I get sick. “Yes, lots of us feel like this, but NONE of those things you mentioned can end up killing other people can they?

[Bob Zelin] “I have no fear of Coronavirus. I just cancelled my Las Vegas reservations today, and only because everything is closed in Las Vegas. I had the tickets – I would have gone anyway. “
Good for you and presumably you have no fear of spreading the virus to other people too?

[Tim Wilson] “So let’s just nod calmly, admit that this year is a little different, so we’ll take little steps. Use the normal amount of toilet paper at home for a couple of extra days this year, and maybe not get super-frothy because we don’t get to climb in a germ tube of a plane to fly into a germ-bath of a convention center with thousands of people you don’t even like to be around the few dozen people you do, ???? and let’s do it next year instead.
“Sound advice Tim!

Pretty sure that NAB won’t be happening

Really annoyed they got rid of this, I’m not sure why as it can’t be difficult to add back in.
Thanks for reminding me, will submit another feature request

[Bob Zelin] “Oh, I am SO depressed that old Mark Suszko knows who Florence and The Machine is !
I thought that I was the only old bag that was keeping up with modern music.
“Florence at Glastonbury in 2015 was one of the greatest gigs I’ve ever been to!
