Hey they are shooting the folow up movie to barbershop in chicago. You should try to go overto the set.

Anyway good luck and keep on editing.

Welcome Dan its good to see Chicago family here. Good luck in your film projects.

Barrie M. Yacher · November 2nd, 2003, 08:22 PM

Dear Dan: I just happened to be reading the posts and saw you were from Chicago. I just wanted to say hello. I leave near Cubs ball park. When the team was doing good, I could hear the crowd, and when we were not doing very good, it was very quite. I bought a GL2 in March, 2003. That's what got me started reading the DV Info Net. I shot my first job in March and knew that I wanted to be able to edit it. So I am very slowly trying to learn Premiere 6.5 and I have a matrox 100x add on board. I bought 14 hours of instructional material. I am still on my first 3 hours. I am going to start from the begining on the first 3 hours now that I just finished it. Anyway nice to see that you are from Chicago. My regular work that interfers with my video is being a lawyer. I do Bankruptcy and real estate closings.

Good choice on the DVX100.
I've got both the DVX100 and the DVC80 and I'm pleased with them both. Much easier to take around than my JVC GY-DV500.

Is there any Chicago people in the forum??

Just wanting to know if there is anyone in the area that's all.

Dennis Sladek · November 10th, 2003, 03:09 AM

Here I am! Direct from Chicago proper.
I was born here, went to College downtown. And, I'm still here.

Don Bloom · November 10th, 2003, 07:11 AM

Lived in the Chicago area all, well most of my life. My kids live in the area, my wife lives in the area, my dog lives in the area, my mother, sisters, neices, nephews, grandchildren and various other sundry animals in the family all live in the area.

Speaking of Rockford, I'm doing 2 weddings there in the next 4 weeks. I've never done one there and now all of a sudden 2. HMMMMM, is there a special meaning to that?????
Let me consult my Chicago SunTimes horoscopes just as soon as I get done reading about how inept the Bears were yesterday;-0

I live way up yonder in Andersonville Foster and Clark area. Lived here most of my life went and joined the Marines saw the world came home saw the USA then settled down in Chicago.

Don Bloom · November 10th, 2003, 10:45 AM

I grew up around Foster and Kimball by North Park College before it became whatever it is today. There was a CTA bus terminal and an Army reserve artillery post about a block from where I lived, River Park where I played baseball and smoked my 1st cigarette and of course a couple of great Chicago style Hot Dog joints. About 4 black away was the original Chicago Choo-Choo resturant,where they served the food to you at the counter on an HO scale train. It was very cool for the 50's.
Ahhhh, the good old days. (Not really-if they were so good we'd still be living in them).

Foster and Clark, not all that far from the Romainian Deli and the Taffy Apple factory. One thing about Chicago, the food, anything you want.MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

Foster and Kimball.....As to the base it is a Marine Corps Reserve Training Center I have worked for Toys For Tots there. As for the area I went to River Park as a kid as it was right across the street from us, I lived in Chapin Hall a children’s home at that time. It's gone now as Swedish Covenant Hospital bought the land and developed when they closed down.

Don Bloom · November 10th, 2003, 10:54 AM

Yes, it is now a Marine Reserve base. I forgot they made the change a while ago. I went to Budlong school and walked by the original Swedish Covenant to get to school and had a lot of kids from Chapin Hall and Lawrence Hall in my classes.
Small world Tom.

I just spent this past weekend in Chicago and had a wonderful time. Great food, steaks and chops, and as always a great town with very hospitable people. Could only have had a better time if it had been a little warmer. Other than wild horses, I can't think of anything that would get me to go to St. Louis.

Bob Schneider · November 18th, 2003, 08:12 PM

I'm actually a home builder with a relentless passion to learn more about DV. Would love to get involved with a project with some other locals and learn more about the craft. Definately willing to volunteer my services for interesting projects. Have Vx2000 & Premiere. Just playing with the stuff for fun right now.

Chicago suburbs.

Don Bloom · November 18th, 2003, 08:39 PM

Hi Bob,

I'm in the NW 'burbs.
