Adobe Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP)

As part of the new video workflow we need to map the use of XMP in creating metadata from the Canon quicktime files thru editing in the field, into Bit Central, into home editing and thru output. How is Adobe Bridge used to create and insert this data. Is an external file created or is the info embeded? Many, many more questions coming up.

What we learned today....

Mike Cutler from Canon was in today with gear for our evaluation; he left cameras, a Beachtek, an IDC Rig, a Red Rock Micro Event rig and a cool but pricey Iphone grip from Zacuto. Our goal is to create a hard spec for Gannett based on the Canon MKIV and a separate configuration on either the 5D or 7D. Will be testing with the dual audio method, Beachtek and direct into the Canon audio system. Am beginning to get an outline together on a standard training package. Best part was being turned on to the Bloom Hitler videos. Hilarous.Hitler on the 7D

Future of Photojournalism

Why most newspaper videos are weak

Very interesting and helpful post form Colin Mulvany.
* Storytelling (making the transition from still images to video sequences)
* Bland Videos (no surprising revelations or engaging hooks)
* Structure (lack of dramatic narrative)
* Technical flaws (jarringly distracting audio and/or video glitches)
* Editing (lack of pacing, transitions, sequencing, layering, orchestration, audio mixing)
* Journalism (lack of basic reporting principles, the most frequent offense being the absence of multiple sources)

Critique: Duchess

1) Need to do multiple interviews
2) faster pace, sequence
3) include video

Veteran reflects on using the atomic bombs

Biosphere 2

Lightroom 3 Beta 2

Began using Lightroom 3 Beta 2 this week on a football project. Am assigned to shoot action for an interactive slideshow piece of all 80 ASU football players over two days. Overall good performance however LR is choking with folders more than 600 photos (or six gigs). This is on a new Macbook pro with 4 gigs of RAM...when the folders are smaller or breaking it up into a couple of collections performance comes back.
