Cool. Count me in.

I just noticed you're in Melbourne. My home town is a few miles south of you--Vero Beach.

If you are doing anything around Melbourne, I'll even have a place to stay! (I can hear my aunts and uncles groaning now... *grin*)

Like I've told everyone else... Push comes to shove, you can sleep on my couch. Just make room for the rest of the cast :)

Did you say you have a waterproof housing?

Unfortunately I do not have a housing, just the knowledge on how to use one.

However, I do have some contacts--I'll call around and see if anyone has one compatible I could borrow when the time comes...

Chicago Area Video Editing Services Needed ASAP
 

I need to have 5 hours of wedding video (shot with a GL2) edited down to 1:30 to 2 hours on DVD. This is my first try at weddings and material needs heavy editing. If I'm satisfied with the job, there will be a lot more coming.

Project is due on September 25. I live in the Gurnee, IL area but will drive to Chicago if needed.

Please email me at zenvdu@aol.com if interested. Kindly have samples and rates ready.

Thanks!

Thanks John for the email. Will wait for your call.

Looking for PRO DVD author-
 

If all goes well, I'll have a feature length movie to put on DVD by May. If you can author a DVD with animated menu, 5.1 surround, and commentary track, I would like to see an example of your work.

I will be shooting on miniDV. Now is the time to find out if there is anything I will have to do now, to insure a high quality DVD and audio. It will also give me an idea of how much lead time I'll need to have it out by June/July.

Hey Phil... email me- capt_quirk@hotmail.com

Available in Vancouver
 

Late last week I was laid off without notice from the company I've been with for more than four years. I won't go into the sad details here. However, I am putting out my shingle for helping out people in Vancouver. Here is what I can do:

Experience/
For the past four years (eight years total experience) I was the web designer and all around multimedia creator for a streaming media technology company. I built more than a dozen internal and client related websites using HTML, .CSS, and .SSI. I created ads, marketing emails, banners, interstitials, and corporate marketing materials for my company and for many clients among whom were well-known U.S. companies. I edited and encoded video, created graphic shells, and titles for video streamed from external websites. I designed and developed application UI. I designed and supervised the printing of packaging and CD liners for consumer products. Almost all of my company's identity was designed by me. I wrote copy for the website, support entries, marketing materal and provided service to clients. I also used my XL1S to video press conferences, events, interviews and other corporate video.

Previous to that company I worked as a 3D animator and modeller for a post-production and games company before I moved into web-related businesses.

What I am looking for /
I am looking for short-term contracts involving web design, any graphics assembly, website construction, copy writing, email or ad design. I would love to design and build entertainment/promotional-related websites as this is what I enjoyed most about certain clients I dealt with at my previous work. Most of my work was corporate / product promotion.

Any video work? /
Those of you who know me from DVInfo know that I got into digital video last year. If there is anyone who wants crew, support or second camera, I am also available. Even if you just want to reach out and network, I would be happy to talk. At this time I'm also willing to volunteer for credit/experience/contacts on commercial productions.

My portfolio /
Although I am currently designing a new self-promo website, you can look at my current personal website for portfolio work.

You're gonna have to have a lot of time to edit, almost an hour to two hours per edited minute. That's my experience.

I'm making my first DVD right now, as you know ;-) and I'd be happy to pass along what I learn. I just received DVD Studio Pro 2.0 and a 1.6 ghz G5, so I'm ready to work!

Keith, there's always work shooting weddings and funerals here in Vancouver. Weddings pay well. Sorry to hear about the job.

The basic editing is what I love to do. It's putting it on a DVD that I want to leave to someone else. I'm looking for nice motion menus, 5.1, and a commentary track. While it's no problem for me to do 12 hours or more cutting scenes and stuff, I know my limitations.

I had placed this in the DVD section and wanted to get some feedback from those who may have the skills I lack. It got moved to helping hands, which is ok... I am looking for a DVD author. I would rather it go to someone on the board, rather than a stranger in the yellow pages.

I'd like to get into the wedding gig sbut so far helped shoot just one. Is there any local association, etc. I can contact to reach out?
