    And test with a tape you can afford to lose in case it decides to chew it up.

    Borrow a Digital8 camera. You’ll need a mini firewire to FW400/800 or whatever your computer will take and skip the analog connection. I find it easiest to capture directly with QT Pro in a native DV format.

    When the woman came up to the board, I thought for sure she was going to exclaim that she did his job.

    In conversations like this I simply ask the client to “show me something you saw and send the youtube link or image.”

  • Wow Mark! I used to do that all the time and forgot about it! Different sheers & colors for different effects. Always got some good looks at the drug store when making a selection. I eventually went on to buy good lens filters and today there’s less time spent on setups and heck, my EX1 doesn’t have a removable lens.

    Thanks for the memory!

    I’ve been using Trend Micro Internet Security. The license is good for 3 devices MAC or PC. So far so good.

    Or perhaps he is using the wrong acronym and he actually means OMF?

    I’ve never heard of it in the video sense, but you probably found it to mean Original Equipment Manufacturer – the company the originally produced a part for another company. Such as a Mopar oil filter is OEM for Chrysler products but a FRAM filter is not.

    I’m guessing he’s just referring to the original files and not any particular flavor of digital file.

    Keen observation Rich.

    I don’t think you can ever get their 100% buy-in to you because many (not all) are not business people. They love the freedoms, the cash (as many don’t get the tax implications of self-employment), they are busy off and on and think they are making money. When things get lean they look for a job, generally have impressive reels, but lack work ethic, commitment and experience being bitched at by a boss.

    If they are considering becoming an employee, show them a non-compete while they are employed, not just after they depart.
