I'm now wrestling with editing HDV in FCP. I struggled with Lumiere, then decided to wait for the 5.1.2 update. Now I'm trying to capture my footage without losing any of it. If there are any experts out there, I could use all the help I can get.

I'm also interested in creating a real film community here. There is a lot of filming going on here, but no one knows about it and there are few outlets, and not much publicity. I can easily imagine a regular feature in either the Stranger or the Weekly (or both) on local production. Whadaya think?

Yeah, not much going on here unless you know where to look, which I don't really. NWFF seems interesting as I posted above. There's also the SIFF (Seattle International Film Festival) sign up for their newsletter to stay informed.

Hi Everyone,

I live in Redmond , WA and shoot mostly stock HD footage. JVC GY-HD100U, XL1, FCP5.1, Shake, Premiere Pro, Cubase SX, and host of midi gear. Mack, looks like we're doing to same kind of work - maybe we can hook up sometime. My web site will be under construction for several months, fusionhidef.com. Personal email is j_clark@comcast.net.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Hey Seattle guys,

Anyone have any relatively secure extra space in their driveway or garage for a Nissan Xterra for a month. We're flying to Costa Rica for a month - out of Seattle. From Jan 9th to Feb 11th, 2007.

Will pay up to $150 or so. Ideally closer to the airport would be better.

I can be reached here or by phone at 1-800-518-8378.

Thanks.

Shawn, welcome to Seattle. I'm just getting started with my JVC 110U, shooting mostly scenics & outdoor footage right now. Would you be willing to teach lessons?

Thanks

Hey Dion, how do you like the HVX 200? I will be using one around March for a upcoming project. Don't own one but it will be supplied by the producers. Right now I'm going through the online manual for it to pre-familiarize myself with it as much as one can do without having it in hand. Currently I own the XL2 which I love tremendously.

Dion LaBlue · December 27th, 2006, 07:36 PM

So far so good...I have only shot test footage so far but it looks great. I love the work flow of the P2 cards and the varicam style of shooting it provides. Although it is not a varicam I think it is amazing. I wish you luck with your shoot and if you're needing a second hand with it, shoot me an email
...D...

Anyone in Seattle and surrounds know Tom Costanza? He shot news at KING 5 ( I think that was the one) and last I heard was teaching. He and I went to college together and worked as a news team back in the 80's.

if you do tell him to drop me a line at bill AT (insertmynameasoneword) dot com.

Thanks!!

Hi everyone,

I learned of a web site called "meetup" which allows people to meet others with similar interests in their local area. I'm actually part of a ski club on the Eastside, but there is a new digital video group in Seattle which looks fun as well:

http://dv.meetup.com/cities/us/wa/redmond/

Our first meeting is this Thursday (Jan 11th) at the address below. Make sure you register on the web site, and sign up to attend if you're interested. Maybe I'll see you there :)

Hi everyone, I'm in Western Washington as well. Glad to meet you all. I've been playing around with the JVC GY-HD110U on some projects and having a lot of fun. Thought it would be great to meet others in the area.

Clyde Garrido · February 6th, 2007, 01:01 AM

Hey everyone. I'm shooting on an HVX200 and DVX100. Comedy and filmmaking are my main interest, but I do lots of freelance shooting. Contact info and some of my work at: http://clydehd.com

Alfred Diaz · April 9th, 2007, 10:51 AM

Hello everyone,

I live and work in Walla Walla. I shoot a Canon XL2 20x lesne, and various other equipment. I do mainly promotional video for commercial and nonprofit projects. But I shot my first wedding this Spring. And I actually enjoyed it, so I might do more.

Website: www.advideoproductions.com

Also, I man be needing a second cameraman with equipment for a couple all-day shoots in the Seattle area. And yes, I pay a very fair rate. But you have to have experience and a good camera. Canon XLs preferred.

Thanks.
