There are vague threats of my keynote and the subsequent panel having been videotaped, so I'll let you know if that shows up anywhere (EDIT: it did, here). In the meantime you can get some of the same wholesome goodness by watching my presentation from the recent San Francisco FCPUG SuperMeet.
Thanks to Mike Seymour for the photo above, for his relentless 24/7 Twittering during the show, and for the nice shout-out on fxguide's NAB2008 Day Three podcast.
Lots of grading solutions but no buyer’s remorse about our new Film Master system.
But man, is that Lustre shape tracking sweet.
For those grading on the cheap, you now have a control surface.
The Orphanage is cancelling RED One reso in favor of a Scarlet. Funny given that Scarlet is currently a lump of metal—just like RED One was two years ago.
3D is the RED One of NAB2008. Except, whatever.
With the exception of The Foundry. Nuke’s new stereo tools are useful, innovative. If you must.
Even more whatever: FED display at 240fps! Aparently no one told them humans max out at ~60fps.
Redrock Micro has a packed booth in the middle of nowhere.
As usual, after one day I’m ready to come home.
Press release. Update: fxguide write-up. Screenshots (click for huge):
Wanna know a secret? I drew this on a napkin for Eyeon about two years ago. I know I know, I'm not the only one.
Twitter was the way to keep in touch with homies at SXSW and ensure the seeing of that which was seeworthy. Looks like that could be the case at NAB this year as well, with frequent updates from mikeseymour and imug_nab08 among others. I'll do my best to contribute, and I'm experimenting with displaying my Twitter updates here on ProLost (over on the right). We'll see how long that lasts, but it just may be a way for me to update the blog more often with useful tidbits—or a waste of screen space that bores you all silly when NAB is over. We'll see, and I'm sure you'll let me know!
