Sony's Virtual Expo Jan. 15th at DVinfo.net

Doug Jensen · January 13th, 2009, 10:17 PM

If you're not already aware, Sony is hosting an online virtual expo this Thursday.
Anyone who would like the opportunity to ask questions and/or chat with dozens of Sony XDCAM staffers ought to sign up. Unless you're headed to NAB, this is a rare opportunity.

HD Creation & Workflow Online Expo | Home

See you there.

What's the cost? Trying to get the better part of the day off to sit in front of a computer should be a hoot!

Andrew Stone · January 13th, 2009, 11:12 PM

It's free or rather "complimentary" Perrone. Mentioned on the linked page albeit in an obscured manner.

I have a revenue-generating gig on thursday and would really like to attend this. But revenue takes priority these days. :-|

If someone from our little community here at DVi does this event, could you please, please write up a little summary?

Perrone Ford · January 14th, 2009, 01:11 AM

I might be able to have a quiet day that day. I'll see if I can attend.

Vincent Oliver · January 14th, 2009, 02:43 AM

I am not sure if I will be finnishef in time for this event, if not can someone ask the question about a Sony recommended HD - SD workflow

Jay Gladwell · January 14th, 2009, 05:59 AM

I signed ups weeks ago, but I haven't had any kind of reply from Sony.

Thank you Doug for taking the time to post this and providing us with the heads up. An innovative outreach to those of us unable to travel to the big convention cities. Also a green approach with consideration to the economic realities of all concerned. Cheers!

There's also this:

Next thing you know, NAB will be gone!

After registering I received an reminder on January 9th which also mentioned that I'd be getting an email with the link the day of the show (tomorrow by my time).

Now I have to figure out how one can buy the show demo equipment off the show floor at the end of the day.

I went back and found the original e-mail. It stated: "You will receive a link to the show via email on the day of the event."

Hmmm, that seems to be cutting it kind'a close. It's "the day of the event" and as of 6:30AM it still hasn't arrived.

I haven't got my link either, and it's 11:30am here in the uk.

Ditto! Where did they go?

Jay Gladwell · January 15th, 2009, 07:30 AM

Starts in 30 minutes and no e-mail with link as promised.

Maybe they canceled due to a lack of interest.

Perrone Ford · January 15th, 2009, 07:36 AM

I registered and got my email.
