NAB Roll Call
 

Howdy from chilly Orlando Florida,

Need to know right away how many of you guys are planning to be in Las Vegas for NAB in April... if there's enough interest in getting together for an hour or two one evening, I'll look into securing a venue for us to meet each other and shoot the breeze.

Will be home on Friday, promise to get caught up with all the posts I haven't read yet. Thanks,

NAB
 

Ill be at NAB, I run a multimedia/DV company in Las Vegas where i reside..

Ill be intersted in doing some mangling during the convention for buisness
reasons.. I would like to get my foot into the door in whats going on outside
of Las Vegas in the digital video industry...

If any thats a possibility then great, Im always looking for ways to meet and
exchange info with others in the industry..

Adam

C'mon guys, not much time to prepare for this! Anybody else? Otherwise if it's just Adam and myself, looks like I'm buying the beer.

Free beer? Sounds real tempting, but it comes down to me going to Las Vegas, or bringing our son home from The Boston Conservatory for spring break. My bride already adjusted my paradigm -- you can guess who lost!

Cheers

If work schedule permits, I'll be checking out NAB, especially if that Panasonic 24p is going to be on display...hard to turn down an opportunity to raise a frosty.

Charles, it would be an honor and a pleasure to meet you at NAB. I'll buy the rounds if you can put up with a few questions I'll have for you, such as what was it like to work with Tony Kaye, and what was it like to work with Mike Judge in Austin in the summertime during the "Chiapas Haze." Office Space and Am Hist X really stand out in my mind as very interesting movies! And folks, Charles has also worked on West Wing and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, to name another couple items on his long and impressive resume.

Gotta love IMDB -- looking forward to meeting you, Charles!

Anybody *else* for NAB? You don't have to be a star to be in my show. ;-)

I look forward to meeting you too Chris.

Without going into too much detail...Austin was interminably hot and sticky during the filming of 'Office Space", but Mike Judge was a lot of fun to work with. "American History X" was a great film but a strange shoot; Tony Kaye's working methods are unorthodox to say the least (his post-production struggles are now Hollywood legend, but there was almost as many unheard stories from the production itself).

I'd be happy to elaborate in Vegas--which I haven't been back to since "3000 Miles to Graceland", the Costner flop, which itself has plenty of stories attached to it--now look what you've done!

Hello Chris
 

I'll be at NAB from Sunday to Thursday and would enjoy having a get together. I have my own DV production business here in Clearwater, FL and have done alot of recording work for pianist Chick Corea. Let me know either way.

Looking forward to meeting you, Bob... drop by the Canon booth during the show; I'll be there. Looks like I'm open on Tuesday night or Wednesday night so far.

NAB in April
 

I'm trying to finalize some plans on attending. Any tentative meeting time or place? Looking forward to meeting many who post here.

Thanks for the response Chris. I'll definitely be coming by the Canon booth and check for you.

I'll be going to the Digital Video Cafe on Tuesday in the early evening. Wednesday evening I'm still open.

Thanks Bob,

Indeed the Promax Digital Video Cafe on Tuesday seems to be the best place so far to hook up. I've been meeting friends at that event for several years now... it's either that or the Pepper Mill on Wednesday! Here are the Digital Cafe details:
