I can see the wife (or husband) of somebody on here surfing facebook crying and then looking over at their companion who is on Jwsound and their laughing/taking notes etc and getting even more sad. Very glad I surf this instead of facebook. Cudos to Jeff! I am so very thankful for this site! Made my own clip art to get the point across although I think the woman would be …

Audio Engineering Society : Announcement AES64-2012 Command, control, and connection management for integrated media This standard for networked command, control, and connection management for integrated media is an IP-based peer-to-peer network protocol, in which any device on the network may initiate or accept control, monitoring, and connection management commands. The AES64 protocol has been developed around three important concepts: structuring, joining, and indexing. Every parameter is part of a structure, and control is possible at any of the levels of the structure, allowing for control over sets of parameters. Parameters can be joined into groups, thereb…

I posted this last year... Were someone, for some inane reason, to compile a list of people who qualify as being "a waste of space, " then surely film critics would be top ten material. I watched in writhing agony this weekend as two dorky, smug, superscillious individuals barely old enough to remember what real movie stars and good movies used to be, tried to out -intellectualize and out-pontificate each other in their rambling so -called critique of current movies. If the opinions of these pathetic wannabes are the best the networks can come up with in order to cater to the film going public then we should all stay at home and watch re-runs of the Andy Griffith Show.…

A producer I have worked with before wanted me to cut my rate to do some "Simple Sit down Interviews" and she also wanted to feed audio to 5D and not run double system. I told her no to both and this is the email I got today. Remind me to never again do an interview without you there. I just uploaded the footage from yesterday and it's totally unusable. God knows what the camera op did, he said he knew what he was doing, but the audio sounds like the people are 100 miles away and we're in a wind tunnel. It was this wealthy couple who totally rearranged they're schedule to do this for me. I'm mortified. Anyway - just want you to know I've always appreciated your …

SAMUEL AXON - 4/20/2023, 2:54 PM Amazon has introduced a new feature to Prime Video called Dialogue Boost. It's intended to isolate dialogue and make it louder relative to other sounds in streaming videos on the service.

Hi All, I just posted something on the thread "certain reservations"... It came out looking like the quote of the quote of the... I don't know... Is there a good place to learn board posting procedures and what all those things like <g> and "Schrieb" mean... I did find out why some people end posts with a "ploink"...

One of the other offshoots of the digital video era is the facility that DP's now have to shoot 'cross coverage" thereby making it tough for boom men to do a good job when two cameras are facing in opposite directions, sometimes on opposite sides of the line (another directing trend). If the actors are two far apart to cue then it's either two booms or a boom and a wire, neither of which is a problem, but it seems to me to be another step away from camera/sound co-operation. No longer is there a discussion about shooting wide and tight or even a good humored apology. It's taken for granted that we "deal with it". Again, no real problem, but it exemplifies the rapidly chan…
