Looking for NAB 2012 volunteers
  • Important

    We started collecting donations for NAB coverage.
    All money will go directly to the guys who'll be making it for us.
    Remember to leave "NAB" in the donation notes (button is above :-) ).

  • becuase it doesn't have dedicated equipment, most especially SD cards... or even Lenses.

    It is joke, right?

  • Funny they have Bruce Logan... worked as his Camera Op recently. Tried to talk to him about the GH2 and he just didn't know much in concern to cameras. He even said they have a hack to make the 5d 4:2:2 and said, "when is this coming out?" and he said "it's already out".

    Idk about him being an expert, but he was the Dp on Tron and part of the Special Effects team for Kubrick's 2001... he's shot a lot on the 5d and Red for what he told me.

    Gh2 is a weird camera, becuase it doesn't have dedicated equipment, most especially SD cards... or even Lenses. Hard Camera to judge, but everyone I talk to says that the next Generation(AFI, USC, UCLA, LA Film School Students) are using GH2 for their projects and using Vitaliy's hack.

  • There are a few seats left for the shootout on Thursday midday.

  • okay, or should I say Amen brother?

  • Is there anyone from Panasonic you do want interviewed?

    Anyone who seems to have some logic in their words :-) Except Jan and Barry :-) I really like both, but have zero intention to expose members to religious preaching.

  • Hi Vitaliy!

    Is there anyone from Panasonic you do want interviewed?

  • @BillStrehl

    Do not worry. Contact me via PM if you need to get booths list and contact info. Including PcHood.

  • If you are using the NABSHOW planner tools you won't find Cinematics listed. I had to go the the floor plan to find them. They are listed under: Shenzhen Pchood Technology Co., Ltd are are at C10548 which means Central Hall. Looking forward to checking out their gear!

  • @BillStrehl

    I'll personally delete any interview with Jan Crittenden Livingston on this site. As I am not interested so see her in any form.

  • From personal experience, I can say that Wednesday afternoon and Thursday are the best days to have in depth conversations and have a longer time to get hands on gear, and probably to get interviews at the busier booths. Show traffic has died down by that point. If you haven't been before, map out the booths you want to visit and stop by the big booths like Panasonic, Canon, Sony, Adobe, etc and see what is scheduled to be presented, then go to the less well known companies. If you want to do interviews at Panasonic in particular, Jan Crittenden Livingston is the best person I know of to talk to. Since she has a busy schedule, I suggest you ask if there is a time you can come by and schedule and interview,

  • Muckraker:

    I just sent you a PM with my cell # to call when you get there. As far as sold out events; the Zacuto people sometimes add extra showings and they do let people in if they get no shows. People also sell Supermeet tickets. I know, cause I sold mine last year. It might be worth showing up if you really want to check out the event.

  • I unsticked this topic as next data will be added to new topic about NAB coverage.

  • I'll be there Tuesday with an Exhibits-only pass. Last minute decision after SFCutters sent out a promo code this morning. Supermeet's sold out, shootout's sold out that day, so it'll be Exhibits only for me, and only for one day, then I'm gone.

    I'll have a GH2, fast zoom, shotgun mic, and 3LT tripod, keep it small. 'Don't know if I want to carry a mixer. Maybe a lav. I can shoot interviews, products....I don't know what Vitaliy wants.

  • So far Jeff Anderson, Tom Guiney and I (Bill Strehl) will be there and plan to meet up. Anybody else going to be there?

  • I am signed up to the Tuesday 10am showing of the shootout

  • For you gents who make it to NAB, please consider signing up for the 2012 Zacuto Shootout screening in advance where the hacked GH2 will be featured. Participants will have a chance to be interviewed and may end up in the final cut of the documentary. http://www.zacuto.com/shootout-revenge-2012

  • I live in cleveland ohio, If I had a flight out and some cash to spend out there. I can professionally film it with a gh1 and a g2. I have 4 year's of college behind me and 15 year's of shooting video . I recently donated to hack the DMC-G2 although I am unsure if my donation money went toward that cause, how would I know when I have entered my donation upon selecting the different options. As I feel my 10 dollar's should go toward the DMC-G2 as it was the best dslr in 2010.

  • Hi Tom:

    Just sent you an email with my cell phone number. See you Monday.

  • Yes let's meet up on Monday afternoon. I've been before. Yes, it's rather...large. I'll PM you contact info.

  • For those of us going to NAB, maybe we can find a time to meet one another and figure how to provide the best coverage. If you've not been to the show before, it can be daunting. This will be my 5th show. I started attending in 2008.

  • I'll be there Monday afternoon through the close of the show on Thursday. I am also attending the Supermeet. I'll post a list of companies I plan to visit in a couple days.

  • wow nice mb i would definitely go if were in north america!

  • A good post on all the LEDs would be most welcome

  • Ill be running around with my GH2 + tascam rig shooting exhibits with my product. Please post here if there are specific exhibits you want to see shot and posted here. I'm there for all 4 exhibition days. So what do people want to see? I'll obviously hit Panasonic and Canon, and my area of interest is LED lights, so I'll be looking at a lot of those, but what else do folks want to see? I promise to do what I can. Donations gladly accepted, either of gear or of cash. I could use an extra portable drive to handle all the footage, as well as a couple other necessaries. But I'm committed. yours Tom Guiney

  • Join our NAB team, as it could be too late!

    We'll have special prizes from our long time partners for people who'll be making coverage.
