Re: [videoblogging] Hello Again
Dear Rudy, I am planning to purchase After Effects for my Mac with some Christmas money. What are some good resources that you would recommend for learning the application or for reference? Or maybe some first projects/effects to tackle to get my feet wet with it? (I have The DV Rebel's Guide) Also, there are some neighborhood kids who just won't GET OFF MY LAWN. Any suggestions on how I should deal with them?

[videoblogging] Re: Hello Again
> Thanks Chris! What do you want to know? I'm afraid it was mostly boring lighting questions... how many, what kind, do you bounce them or do you soften them with gels, etc. I noticed around the time of the Dr. Slasher episode that your lighting and greenscreening had come a long way, and was especially impressed at how well some of the lighting matched the background images. What software do you use for your editing and compositing? I warned you these were boring questions. On the non-technical side... do you still accept scripts/story submissions for GALACTICAST? I started a real humdinger of one just before the big show shakeup, and I'd kind of like to finish it up and bounce it off you. I just started a show of my own, very much a work in progress (as you can tell just by looking; I need to get the mic closer to my subject, tighten up the frame and be more mindful of the wind noises... oy, all this technical crap will be the death of me). Anyway, check it out if you dare: http://action83.blip.tv/ There's nothing much to it yet - I haven't gone as far as building a proper website around it - but I'm going to keep hammering at it. To be fair, it's less than two days old. :) No other questions I can think of... oh wait, there is one: what was Casey's beef with Peter Jackson's KING KONG? ;) Hope you have a great New Year's, Chris

[videoblogging] Re: Hello Again
Hi Rudy! Glad you're around... KITKAST was the podcast that introduced me to the whole concept of serial vlogging, and I'm a diehard fan of your other shows as well. Sorry you didn't make it down to the Winnies, I'd have loved to pick your brain a little on the nuts and bolts of what you do. I'm happy to see you're still plugging away at GALACTICAST. Not only is it intrinsically entertaining, it's been fun watching it evolve. Keep up the good work, man.

[videoblogging] Hello Again
Hi all, I am starting a New Year's resolution early and once again becoming an active member of this group. For those who don't know me, I am the co-creator (and now full producer) of a little show called GALACTICAST (http://galacticast.com), and have also created/produced A COMICBOOKORANGE and KITKAST with my lovely former co-star Casey McKinnon. I have a wee bit of experience in all of this online video stuff, and hope to learn more as well as giving a lot back. So if you have any questions, comments, critiques, fire them here, or through the many other ways to reach me. Now ... who to flame first? I kid ... a little bit. Cheers Rudy Jahchan

[videoblogging] Re: Best Mac app for tweaking video sound
Unfortunately, I don't have Final Cut right now... at least, not a version that works with OS 10.3.9. I suppose I'll just have to bite the bullet and at long last upgrade my OS, but my wallet needs to recover from the holidays first.

You got Final Cut? There are some pretty decent equalizers in that. Audacity has some fair EQ as well. Free.

[videoblogging] Best Mac app for tweaking video sound
I need to stifle some of the noise on this video I shot and boost the vocal range... what app should I use? Cleaning up the noise isn't as huge a deal as just adding a little "oomph" to my actress' voice. That's the real standout problem I'm facing. Chris
Re: [videoblogging] Re: question for "show in a box" peoples
You can't do any of the show in a box stuff on wordpress.com Buying hosting yourself doesn't cost very much. A basic account at someplace like 1&1 go for $3/mo + $6/yr if you need to register a domain. So if you need a domain and hosting - that's $42/yr. - Verdi On Dec 28, 2007 8:38 PM, David S Kessler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > > yeah, i gave up. going back to blogger. now to get it to recognize > my domain (headache #2) > > -- http://michaelverdi.com http://freevlog.org http://nscape.tv
