It's a safe bet that I am absolutely the least knowledgeable person here when it comes to video production. I've been shooting concerts for a few years, first with a Sony DCR SR40, and lately with a Sony HDR SR12. I started filming because I'm a huge music nerd and I wanted to be able to throw in a dvd and watch the show again. Recently I've decided to make a doc on the early days of one of my favorite bands. I plan on buying a NX5 within a few weeks and getting started.

As far as what I've previously done, it's novice to be sure, but you can take a look here if you're interested in bootleg concert video's.

No tripod, not sure what I'm doing, shaky concerts of my favorite bands. But soon, soon I shall make amazing things.

I hope.

And sorry in advance for the massive pile of rookie questions I will unleash upon you all.

You've been warned :)

**EDIT** Oh, and the only thing that I've filmed and edited myself is this video for some friends band. If you enjoy metal, then take a listen. And keep in mind, I've never made a video of any kind before this. I just filmed and edited it and threw it out there. I don't think it was terrible, but I know I have a LOT of room to grow.

Hello Ryan,

Welcome to DVInfo.net.
You have found a great source of wisdom. :)

Good luck with your film project. Sounds interesting.

Re: Portland, Or

Thanks! I plan on utilizing this forum to the fullest extent!

**EDIT**

Oh, and if someone could let me know why I can't post in the Private Classifieds section, I'd appreciate it. I read through the FAQ and I imagine I missed it. Do I need a certain post count? I'm looking for a docking station for a DCR-SR40 is all. Thanks!

You do, indeed, need a certain post count, or is it time from first posting, hmm, simply can't remember, anyway, one or the other, it will happen automatically when it happens.

Enjoy DVinfo.

Re: Portland, Or

My Nx5 came today. i've been shooting a little bit of test footage, trying to get used to it. I thought I'd shoot our dog in the yard......first thing he did was take a crap. So that's how I broke in my new cam! Doggy duece!
