Hi everyone
I'm from Newcastle upon Tyne -Tyneside, in the North East of England. A diehard Toon fan - football (soccer).

I found this board whilst getting info for what is to be my new acquision in film-making any day now, a HVR-Z5 Sony camcorder. This replaces a VX2100 I have just introduced to ebay.

Not being a proper professional videographer, it's a learning curve at times with modern kit, but I've just ordered Adobe CS4 Production Suite, and I will try to make some use of After Effects, as well as the others in there.

Being a critical care nurse, I don't film at work, but do so creatively away from work, and get kicks from entering amateur competitions against anybody and everybody in the amateur scene. I've a few movies on youtube under my 'billyfromconsett' name.

So that's me, a 1960's baby, finding these boards great.

If you post me, call me Billy, I can't get this name to register.
