Apparently I missed posting this, but the sixteenth episode of THE EDIT BAY is now available for download, and has been for a couple weeks.  This one is about “rock and rolling” a cut about….Jesus.

The seventeeth episode of THE EDIT BAY is now available for download (I just now realized that I never announced that Ep.16 was too…I’ll fix that).  This one is about having footage on the brain.

So there have been some good comments about THE EDIT BAY Special Edition video podcast about true 24P monitoring (the post right below this one). Owen points out that many HD LCDs are switchable to 48Hz and therefore can show a true 23.98 signal. I confirmed that yes, this is true. But I still stand by my statement that it isn’t needed, and INSISTING on needing it is silly.

Here is a follow-up video to that podcast.

A special VIDEO edition of THE EDIT BAY is now available for download.

I have heard time and time again on the forums, and in person, people wanting…nay…DEMANDING “true 24p” monitoring with their capture card and HD monitor. I am here to tell you…”no, you don’t.” True 24p monitoring is possible, but no professional editor or colorist or online editor I know uses it. And this video podcast tells you…SHOWS you…why.

To play in your browser or download direct, click here. Mind you this isn’t streaming…so it will need to download first. And it is 111MB, so it might take a while.

EDIT: Hmmm…the iTunes download doesn’t seem to be working. It downloads…but then isn’t there. Tried this on two machines. I’ll work on it tomorrow.

EDIT 2, Electric Boogaloo: FIXED!

This week Inside Mac Radio did an interview with Rodney Charters, the DP on the series “24.” He talks about why the show still shoots film, and even comments on the use of an HDV camera on the set. VERY interesting…and shows the resourcefullness of the editor to get what they need to make a scene work.

Well worth a listen. Click on the following link to download the episode into iTunes:

INSIDE MAC RADIO

OK. Not really. But I actually like that 80’s song and it is SORTA true.

I will be appearing on Phil Hodgett’s Digital Production Buzz (http://www.digitalproductionbuzz.com) on Feb 8th. This podcast can be found on iTunes.

What will I be talking about? Not sure. Perhaps working with P2, or DVCPRO HD, or the workflow I use to get from P2 to D5 and digibeta for broadcast delivery. Perhaps my elbow rubbing with Oliver Stone on my first film job, thus making me ONE degree of separation from Kevin Bacon…and other famous folk and world leaders. I won’t be touching on my stints on WHEN ANIMALS ATTACK or AMERICA’S FUNNIES HOME VIDEOS, because really, are they all that interesting? I was the TAPE VAULT MANAGER…so no, they weren’t.

Listen in and hear what I sound like. I hope not to ramble much. I am apt to do that.
