Re: UHD Alliance Sets HDR Requirements

Re: Treating a room for voiceovers
Many pro voiceover booths are really tiny, which means that they need to be dead, dead, dead. They also need great isolation to remove outside sounds.
One approach is to use Corning 703 panels....

Re: Why do people use tripod legs with spreaders?
