CAMBIO DE RUTA

DATELINE September 28, 2008
VIVO de WOODBRIDGE, VA


David Alberto, Productor "de Cambio de Ruta" con éxito el primer programa de lengua español Religioso remoto vivo del FPA de emisión de Woodbridge, Virginia atrás al Canal del cable de Timonel 10 en Fairfax y alrededor del mundo 7 segundos más tarde.
Jim Southworth lo ha hecho otra vez. Él ha puesto en práctica una tecnología de consumidor simple descubierta por Leo Torrezao y amplió su uso intencionado. El "HAVA", los mercados de vendedor que el aparato llamó una caja de cabestrillo, un dispositivo que permitirá que nosotros miremos nuestra TV de casa en cualquier computadora relacionada con el Internet. Torrezao preguntó si el dispositivo no podía ser usado como una cámara al interfaz de registrador que así elimina el enredo de cables que ensucian todas las producciones de TV. Southworth leapfrogged aquella sugerencia como de costumbre. Él comenzó a probar usando una de las cámaras de campaña de Torrezao en vez de una TV como el vídeo de la fuente. Dentro de 24 horas ellos habían subido con lo que es conocido en la industria de TV como “un eslabón de transmisor de estudio”.
En Southworth corto y Torrezao han sustituido un camión de satélite costoso por la electrónica de consumidor que es prácticamente indistinguible. El Southworth refinó el sistema usando su propia licencia “Dentro de la Pala” programas como una cama de prueba antes de recomendar que ello ser liberado a otros productores. ¿Qué harán ellos para un bis?
Si usted se preocupa por nuestra comunidad,
Si usted se preocupa por el cuidado de nuestra voz viva entonces
VOTO para Jim y Leo el 28 de septiembre.

FCAC Election 2008

My concern about the corporation this year begins with the realization that the legal reason for our existence—a franchise with the county ends in less than 5 years.
The political wind tells us that the Federal government (FCC) will declare that since the county now has more than one cable provider a franchise is not necessary.
As soon as that matter is settled in law we see no reason for the cable company to continue funding us.
Who are we?
Do you believe that public access is about the public access to the cable system and free speech or is it about producing amateur vanity TV?
I believe that we are the soapbox in the town square.
Please remember that the county has not helped the concept of free speech since Audrey Moore was on the board of supervisors in 1988.
Do you have friends in the county? Or do you have people who are masters at making you believe that they are your friends?
That is why today, I’m asking for your vote.
Vote for Jim Southworth and me.
Jim is acknowledged as one of the 21 architects responsible for building Internet II.
FCAC can not only survive as a corporation, we can go on to build a nation wide Public Access Network.
If you care about our community,
If you care about keeping your voice alive,
If you care about what kind of a country we leave for the next generation then vote for Leo Torrezao and Jim Southworth.
Former FCC Commissioner Gloria T told me, “Even when you think that you have friends in office, don’t stop fighting, your enemy’s never do”.
Thank you for listening.

We continue our search for good inexpensive editing software more appropriate for Public Access TV editors than either Apple FCP or Adobe Premiere.

“Great Amateur/Prosumer Editing Suite, September 4, 2008 by CFE Chillnhill
The "Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum Pro Pack" is another fantastic entry into the outstanding Vegas family of editing software. We make instructional DVDs and have used Sony Vegas since version 4. While most of our videos are made using the higher end version Vegas Pro 8 I use the "Studio" version for home videos and quick edits. What's included (all on one disc): * Vegas Movie Studio 9 Platinum Edition (editing software) * DVD Architect Studio 4.5 (DVD authoring) * Sound Forge Audio Studio (audio editing) * Cinescore w/themes (sound track creation) * 1001 Sound Effects * NewBlue 3D Transitions & Effects ("Cartoonr" is an interesting effect) Here are my observations: * Very intuitive and easy to use interface * Huge selection of effects and transitions * Support for HD video * Burns Blu-Ray from the timeline and from DVD Architect * "Show Me How" interactive tutorials are very helpful * Direct YouTube upload support * Excellent Chromakey (green screen) capabilities * Great sound editing tools * Easy DVD menu creation

“Buyer beware - Even though the product is "Vista" compatible, there is a fine print - it is not supported under 64-bit version. The solution from support was to install 32-bit vista instead. If only they would print this requirement on the box, it can save some headache!!”
