Born in 1950 - Went through the "60s" and college in the "student unrest era".
Have been shooting and editing professionally since the mid '70s.
Grad film school in the late 70s. Independent since 1980.
Excited by new gear and still remember "control track linear editing" and flatbed 16mm editing. One thing remains the same.
Content is King... it's all about storytelling... communication...
I've become more pragmatic... the older you get... the less time you have to waste.

Matt Stahley · September 24th, 2003, 02:13 PM

Mike I would say thats good for any age! I remember making some skate videos (non-pro) with my friends in the early 90s with a nice full size Quasar VHS camcorder and 2 VCRs.I wish there were still some decent skaters around my town but basically its all groms now.

Good for you, Jacqueline, and Welcome!

I suspect that your experience in another visual medium will serve your creative inspiration in videography well, perhaps in unexpected ways.
