Helping Hands from 2012

May 21st, 2012, 10:30 AM

We are updating firmware for free on the cameras and have a bevy of operators who have picked up locally. If the need arises I'll pass YOUR info to them and THEY can respond. I won't release client info without them knowing...

Hi Steve,

What time of day is the recital?

Thanks, Jim

Andrew Alden Miller · May 22nd, 2012, 10:51 AM

Thanks Phillip.I know where to go if the need again arises.

Victor Nguyen · May 23rd, 2012, 02:15 AM

thanks a lot Bass, sorry for the late reply, I didn't know how to subscribe to threads back then. I would want to work for film production and corporates work. Not really interested in News. Do you now if there are any good film school in Houston? I heard from people that Houston Community College is good for film and Alvin ( which is close to me) have a really good broadcasting program. I might go into tv broadcasting if there is a higher chance of a stable job. And yes I am already 18, about to get out of high school in June 2nd and head off to college to follow my dream :)

Josh Bass · May 23rd, 2012, 03:07 AM

No worries.

There are not really any film schools in Houston. There are places with film/TV/etc. PROGRAMS, like, yes, HCC, UofH has something, Art Institute, etc. As I understand it these are by no means in the same league as attending a "real" film school. UT in Austin is pretty well known for their film program. Other than that, I don't even know what (if anything) is in Texas.

Please know that film school is not required or even any kind of guarantee that you will make it in the industry. It's just one of several valid avenues to get you there.

yes I know, just hoping to make some contacts and the training might be useful. How about for television? is it the same as filmmaking where I really don't need a degree?

Josh Bass · May 23rd, 2012, 02:33 PM

Depends what you mean by "television".

I believe some positions as TV stations do actually require a degree, but that may more for working in news or operations (operations being basically helping run the station, in a technical sense -- master controller, stuff like that). There may be a few shows around town that need crew people (Hot on Homes, etc.), and I couldn't say as to whether those would require degrees or not.

Google "tv jobs Houston" or similar and see what pops up. Also check each station's web site for job listings and see if they mention degrees.

Shot a local pageant with 3 cameras (Sony cx55x series) and have separate audio. Not up to putting it all together for a dvd. Looking for help putting the footage together with output being a dvd & bluray dvd. Not the best quality due to lack of lighting and such. Just need it all put together as best as possible and finished. Better half is on my butt. I would prefer Vegas so I can copy the job to my computer after it is finished.

Email me with any questions.
Thanks

Garrett Low · May 24th, 2012, 09:41 AM

Hi Richard,

I can't email you as it's not an option when I click on your name. I edit in Vegas Pro 9. What is the anticipated length of the finished video? What is your timeline for getting it done? And what is your budget for getting the edit done? Email me if you're still looking for someone to do it.

Thanks,
Garrett

Hi,
I am looking for a Camera Assistant for a documentary shoot in Moscow in June (most likely June 20-25).
He/she should speak English (or German).
Thanks a lot.

If you choose him, tell him hello from Alex Talis in Dallas

Brian Press · May 31st, 2012, 04:42 PM

Hi Everyone!

Thanks for all the replies and resumes and links! Really appreciate!

Now that we are in the craziness of wedding season, we are looking to add another team of DSRL's shoots! Please let us know if you are interested!

Thank you!

Brian

Allan Black · May 31st, 2012, 05:18 PM

Yes I'm to far away too. Love the name Redondo .. Re-don-do, it's like Embarcadero.

Judging by the celeb news, there should be a lot of biz in LA. Colorful site too, all the best.

Cheers.

Dave Morgan · June 4th, 2012, 07:52 PM

I produce and direct music videos, and I really need someone to help plan out this music video that I am in pre-production for. Would the title for that person be; co-producer? or what should I call this person when I ask people if they want to help out with the pre-production/planing?

I do know a possible person I have worked with, but they work under their own company name. Should I consider using this person and say the video was produced by (company A) and company (B)?

OR since I am the one who got the client, should I keep it solely under my business name? And then tell that person that I am hiring you; not your business name?
