I just returned from three days at the Videomaker Expo. I'm new to video and was not at last years Expo. People I talked to said this years was better than the first Expo last year. I attended as many of the seminars as I could. I found them very informative and the faculty very knowledgeable. My main complaint was that many of the seminars were not long enough. Each one was an hour long with a fifteen minute question period afterwards and only fifteen minutes between seminars. Also if you attended all of the days seminars and forums you were left with little time to roam the exhibit floor. I was also surprised at the absence of some major manufacturers. ( No Fault of Videomaker) Other than these minor complaints I enjoyed the Expo and plan on attending next year. I found the staff of Videomaker warm, friendly and knowledgeable. They always had time to answer any questions no matter how simple or complex. I think that Videomaker is to be commended for advancing the quality of video done by home based videographers as well as educating and encouraging newcomers into the field.
