Too bad they don't have it in Dallas any more. Would be nice to sleep in my own bed during the convention.

Thanks Bill.

I've always wanted to go and now I guess I'm going. I've done the free exhibit registration, replied to the invite Sony sent me and signed up for the LAFCPUG super meet and greet. Anything else I should be thinking of?

Wow, how else can you go to NAB and come home with a free HD camera package worth $9K -- I know of no other way -- watching this thing find its new lucky owner will be the crowning moment of the FCP SuperMeet before I head back to Centrifuge on the main floor of MGM Grand for a nightcap or three.

And now Panasonic has donated this:

Panasonic AG-HSC1U 3-CCD PROLINE Camcorder with 40GB SD
Store Drive ($2099 value)

With a couple other prizes that just came in, total value is now over $86,000.00

Now if we can get Chris to donate dvinfo.net pens we expect total value to soar above ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

I'll also be doing another presentation this year at the FCPUG Supermeet that may be of interest to multicam FCP editors out there, as well as those with access to cameras with TC IN/OUT capability.
There will be more details to come, but I've called this one "The Fastest Music Video Cut... Ever."

Sony will be presenting my short film "Table Manners" (shot on the EX1 and Redrock M2) in their booth, along with behind-the-scenes footage and interviews. I believe that Douglas Spotted Eagle will also feature it in his presentations during the show.

Hi Conrad:

Sorry for not responding sooner, but I've been on the road. I haven't been to an NAB show for more than a decade so I can't offer you any advice on the show. I can tell you that getting around and to/from the convention center can be a real pain. If possible pick a hotel along the monorail line and use that to get around. You can buy different packages for the monorail. The MGM, where the Super Meet takes place, is on the monorail line.

The Las Vegas Trolly is a good way to get around on the Strip. Cost of either a day or night pass is $4.25.

Bill Thanks for the tip. We are staying at the stratosphere which looks ? to be close to the Monorail and convention center.

Just got an email from Sony. View presentation at NAB and get a $500 of $5000 purchase coupon good thru May 31st.

Just make sure you leave the show by 3PM if taking the monorail. Otherwise its an hour or more wait.

this sounds pretty cool--Dallas Mavericks, isn't that a Mark Cuban production?

NBA in 3-D HD Coming to NAB Show

Content Theater to Feature Special Presentation of NBA Basketball Game in 3-D HD

Washington D.C. - April 9, 2008- NAB Show today announced it has added to its Content Theater a presentation examining the live 3-D HD production and transmission of National Basketball Association (NBA) games. The session will look at the league's groundbreaking 3-D HD initiatives, with a special focus on the March 25, 2008 Los Angeles Clippers vs. Dallas Mavericks game, which was the first-ever NBA regular-season game broadcast live in 3-D HD.

The session titled, "Case Study: Live 3-D Sports -Production and Transmission of NBA Basketball in 3-D" will provide attendees with the first opportunity to see and discuss the new NBA footage, as well as examine the challenges and possibilities for the future of live 3-D HD sports broadcast.

Steve Stubelt, director sales & marketing Sony Solutions, SONY Electronics Inc., will moderate the panel, which includes:
. Dave Evans, director of broadcasting, Dallas Mavericks
. Stephen Hellmuth, executive vice president operations and technology, NBA Entertainment
. Mike Rokosa, vice president engineering, NBA Entertainment
. Vince Pace, CEO, Pace; executive producer, "Hannah Montana Concert Film"; 2nd unit DP, "Avatar"; and DP & producer, "NBA FinalsGame #2"

**ALL PARTICIPANTS AVAILABLE FOR MEDIA INTERVIEWS FOLLOWING PRESENTATION**

The NBA originally unveiled games in 3-D HD during the 2007 NBA All-Star Game in Las Vegas with a special invitation-only viewing party at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. The league followed the success of that event by featuring Game 2 of The Finals 2007 in 3-D HD between the San Antonio Spurs and Cleveland Cavaliers to more than 14,000 fans at Cleveland's Quicken Loans Arena.

This session will join other 3-D as well as sports-centric panels in the new state-of-the-art Content Theater. For a full schedule for the Content Theater, please visit: www.nabshow.com/theater http://www.nabshow.com/theater

In addition, the NAB Show will host a number of sessions dedicated to the Beijing Olympics, which will be the most complex TV production ever, with more HD, broadband video and hours of live sports programming than all previous Olympics combined. The NAB Show Beijing Olympics Workshop Sessions, which will examine the cutting-edge gear and techniques being deployed, include:
. Making the Leap: Transitioning the International Broadcast Center to HD
. Virtual Beijing: Inside the Venues
. Goin' Mobile: Olympic Mobile Production and Flypack Systems at the Summer Games
