Greatings from Chicago
 

Hi everyone,

I just joined with in the last week and wanted to introduce myself. Im a "Digital Cinema" student at DePaul University and have been using DV for about 6 years now. I got my start producing news packages for my highschool television station and now I'm studying cinema, so its deffinately been a gradual progession.

Last week I took out my first HD camera for a little test run and I'm really excited in what the future holds. That was the day with out immigrants protest that happend everywhere so I checked out the JVC-HD100 and documented the event as well as I could. I actually got introduced to this community by these guys who were filming the same event but with 3 of the same camera I was using. They seemed cool plus they had 3 JVC-HD100's so I decided to check it out. Well thats all for now. Drop a line and say hi.

Jack

G'day From Chicago
 

Hello everyone, I'm an Aussie, now permenantly living in the windy city..

I'm as new as they come in this field of work, (haven't actually started yet):)

I've been reading these threads for about a month and finally decided to register...I have much to learn and I reckon I've hit the jackpot with this site.

I want to get into event videography (weddings)..probably going to buy a
sony pd-170 for now and get used to it..hopefully work as an assistant with an established videographer...but for now as I stated..I have so much to learn.
thanks for having such an informative site like this available for everyone to learn, no matter what level they're at.

Manny.

Welcome to DVInfo, it's a great place to hang out, have a cup of coffee and talk it up!

Hmmm, Frankfort, Tinley Park? Is that still in the U.S.? ;-)

Kidding, I've been thru Tinley ( a long time ago) but Frankfort is a bit out of my usual running grounds. Welcome aboard!

coming back home on vacation
 

Howdy all-
I am currently suffering from a intermittent keyboard failure bug which crawled into my computer on a sick Leopard and is plaguing my very digital existence, so I'll have to keep this brief to minimize my desire to throw my Macbook onto Damen Ave.
I work freelance in Chicago doing various things, all related to film. I am hoping to go down to my home (San Marcos actually...) Austin, TX and get mixed up in some filmic grandeur, and beat old man winter in the process. this will be my first year of migration... Anybody with experience? Recommendations? Contacts? :) You are all awesome. In advance.
