Another tutorial, this time for Youtube video

this time for getting the best video quality when uploading to youtube. It's pretty self explanatory. Screen captures don't show up that well, I need to re-edit and zoom in on the specific spots, but here it is.


You may notice an audio totorial down the page is no longer available. Well I mistakenly deleted it from youtube, and since I have been having DSL issues in the evening (when I get chance to upload) I have been unable to replace it. I hope to have the issue worked out (its' been nearly 2 months) this weekend if the tech is on the ball (its a phone line issue, apparently the gremlins only come out after dark).

Teleprompter isn't that easy, just ask my daughters!

My two older daughters volunteered to help me out at work today. One running the scroll control on the prompter the other as camera operator. I do an on-camera anchor man part for an annual test video. I introduce each scenarion and then give the test takers the questions. I usually do it all myself, but since they offered to help, who am I to argue. Well Beth was first on running prompter. She found it difficult to keep pace, falling behind or getting ahead. Katie then gave it a shot. She did pretty well at first then had problems. So dad decided to go to the fall back plan and do it himself, just to get through the lengthy narrations. Once I had finished they got a shot at being in front of the camera. (I will try to post some clips next week) they found that wasn't all that easy to do either. They say it was harder than they thought, especially when trying to follow the copy. It's a skill that is learned thru repetition and practice. Much like reading copy and making it soun

Lava lamps can heat up your career

Lavalamps seem to have been around forever, but are seeing a resurgence in popularity. (2 of my kids bugged us to buy them for them, and they succeeded). They have popped up in photos of recording studios. I guess they add that much needed "warmth" to the sound. But I recently found that being close to a lavalamp can heat up your career. Just watch this guy. Recognize Mike Rowe of Dirty Jobs fame? or maybe as the voice of The Deadliest Catch, or now Ford's truck and car commercials? Lavalamps can help your career, myth or truth? you decide.

Documentary Video

Figure I should at least post something about this at the start. I produced a 45 minute documentary entitled " Lost Towns of the Pine Barrens, Vol. I" that won a 2006 Aegis Award in its category. It's "cross-curricular" meaning that if a school were to use it, it would work for both science and social studies/history classes. I produced a short trailer as well. It's been said there are more ghost towns in the New Jersey Pine Barrens than in all of the old west. This video recounts the unique ecology of the area, the iron industry it supported and how it met its demise. More information is available at www.losttownsvideo.com
