It's hard to believe it's been over two years since Glen started this thread! Some of us have been hanging around here for a looonnng time.

Must confess that I've been deleting notifications, but tonight I decided to catch up. My best to Bob Trimmer of Medford, Oregon (we're sort of neighbors!). Glad you're having fun here!

Looking back I kept seeing names of bygone DVInfo-ers and feeling kind of sad. Oh man, that sounds so sentimental! Does that mean I'm gettin' old? ;)

(Note to Keith Forman: Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall seeing any numbers from you. And after all the trouble you gave everyone else! If you see this--time to fess up, Big Boy!!!) :)

Happy Birthday, Greg!!!!

I'd look back to see what number changed but I did that once already this year. :) Have a great day!

45. And I'm one woman who won't mind declaring this because I'm always asked for my student ID.

It took me a while arguing with the TGV ticket lady about my so-called "student ID" and realising the kick I was getting in the shins by one of the camera-crew guys with me. He told me later when I finally convinced the ticket lady that I was not a student that I could have gotten away with a lower fare if I had just said I was a student who forgot to bring my ID.

Yeah, riiiigggghttt.

In the video-business, your age is not of importance.
The older you get, the better you become.

My average age over the years is 33-----although I rarely act older than half that.

Robert Rock

37, but I have more artificial parts than most men twice my age. I guess that's why I relate to Indiana Jones in that "It's not the years... It's the mileage".

when i tell people that i have been a professor at two universities and a lecturer at another, they assume i'm old. when i tell them i am only 30, they don't believe me (either they don't believe i am 30, or don't believe that i have taught at 3 places).

again - age is relative. i just find a way of packing in a lot of work in a short period.

Been doing the whole video thing since my dad brought home a purple iMac years ago and I made a movie with the attached camera about Bagel Bites!
Changed my life forever.

I'm 45 and brand new to video. About to invest truckloads of money into something I know absoutly nothing about so my son and I will have something in common besides DNA.

Definate proof that getting older doesn't make you smarter.

See Ya

I'm 54. i shoot video, HD, film, and stills. Whew! Too many formats, too little time.

Dennis Whitney

Im 41. I have no money anymore. I do sound. I became interested in video during the process of tracking sound for an independent film company. I did film editing on 8mm BELL RTR as a youth. Razor Blades and Glue for my dad who did alot of home movies of vacations and my sister and I during the holidays. I have an addiction to creating musical oddities and figured I'd try video as an extension. My camcorder is a Canon ZR200 I've had for 3 months and I've filled up 9, 60 minute DV tapes of just stuff.

Peace,
Dennis

Howdy everyone. I'm fairly new to the prosumer side of videography and just made a huge investment in equipment. As far as age... I'm 44 going on 25 but I don't look a day over 65. Looking forward to reading and responding to a lot of the posts out here in DV land. By the way, I'm way down here in Houston, TX

Im 37 and second generation in TV production. Im a true son of TV, my mother was a news anchor and my dad a news cameraman, they met at a TV station, married, then I came to the world. I was raised playing with film rolls and started working at 12 as a camera assist to my father......so I guess I have 37 years and 25 working on TV.

This is my first post here so I figured I would start with something I know, my age. I am 26. I Edit families home movies into much shorter, more organized and more interesting DVDs. I found this site researching copyright laws and was not too happy with what I found.

Simon Cooper

Recently turned 39 and just got engaged!

Aside from making short films I'm lecturing part-time to university students studying Computer and Video Games here in Southampton, UK.

@ Christian: just the other week I touched a little on copyright during a lecture to my students. I felt a little sorry to have to introduce them to a world moulded by lawyers. The whole issue of copyright can be a real eye-opener.

Ive got my bus pass so im old. But I guess im not the oldest Im 63.

You know the saying "If i had known I would live this long I would have taken better care of myself" I dunno if that applies to me or not..

Anybody else find it hard to remember how to work some software packages?
Premier Pro for example.

Still its good to see all ages interested. The young of today are the directors of tomorrow

While the old, like me, have appointments lined up with tomorrow's funeral directors. You're doing fine Derek. I can't remember where i buried the tutorial cds for Premier Pro.

Never mind; you sing The Banks of Loch Lomond and I'll sing The Rose of Mooncoin
