#New Member–Video To Go!
Hello, I have just discovered this forum. I am a desktop video producer in the
Seattle area. We use S-VHS Hi-Fi format and a Video Toaster System in
post-production. We have produced a number of videos of NW area bands, and
have produced shows for broadcast comprised of our video projects. We are
obviously excited that we can produce "broadcast quality" programming with our
"entry-level" gear, and have established some extremely valuable contacts in
and around the music business in this area, as well as among area
videographers, audio and video studios, and area printers, audio and videotape
duplicators, makers of audio CDs and CD-ROMs. We are members of the Puget
Sound Video Alliance, and provide technical consultation to the Creative
Community Access Television group, a not-for-profit corporation attempting to
establish and regulate a cable, user, and government supported Public Access
Cable Channels in the Tacoma and Pierce County Area. No, they don't have any
Public Access Cable at this time.
I am also interested in multimedia production, using the Macintosh
platform. I use a 660AV, which is roughly equivalent to a Quadra 900, except
with built-in AV capability, including stereo 16-bit audio, S-Video in, an
on-screen video monitor, and the ability to output S-Video. Am currently
evaluating my options re: Adobe Premiere, MacroMedia's Director, SpigotPower
AV, and more. Any tips will be welcomed.
