Greetings From Louisville, KY

Been on the boards for about a month or so and finally thought I'd post a quick and dirty Hola on the neighborhood thread. Just getting started as an honest to goodness production company on the small scale for event/wedding/corporate/real estate using a Sony A1U, Steadicam Merlin, Senn wireless, Rode boom, manfrotto sticks with 503 head and assorted other goodies. Editing on Vegas with Connect HD. Would love to meet other area gear heads to start a small local group with similar interests. Working out of a home office in the downtown area. Right now I'm spending the bulk of time prepping to go live in mid August. Lotta training going on learning how to fly the Merlin.

Cheers!

Louisville

Greg,
As a fellow videographer in Louisville I just wanted to take a moment to say hello. I do event videography as well with 3 XH-A1 cams and Sony Vegas softwre. I don't know if you've seen the thread, but a few other videographers fromt the 'ville are thinking of forming a user group. We don't really have a support system or major video retailer in Louisville to got to and compare equipment, techniques, or software so a User group really makes sense. If your interested send me an email. ICVideo@bellsouth.net. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hey guys! I'm a writer/producer/photographer/editor in the Creative Services & Marketing Department at WHAS11-TV. I would be interested in a local group as well. I'm close to pulling the trigger on my own equipment (Canon XL2, AVID Express Pro). It would be great to share ideas with some local folks.

Erica?? Don't know anyone by that name.

Are talking about Shawn Kaelin?? If so, then yeah, he's the assistant director of my department.

No,
I'm referring to the Benhams in Meade county. I grew up with some of them. Just thought you might know them.

Thats him

I would hang out at Shawn and Kelly's house all weekend. As for the Video group, getting people excited and together is 2 different things. I think the first meeting may be small(3-5 people), but hopefully grow from there.

Cool!

It's a small world! Kelly and I graduated from high school together. We would bum around Old Weldon when we we're kids. I remember Shawn when he was little. Haven't seen him or their sister Michelle in years.

Hope this local group takes off. Here's my email: scott.benham@whas11.com

Well....It's in progress

It's still planned. Interest is there, it's just coordinating the first meeting. I just spoke with Doug Netherton who is the Vice President of Franchise Development for Flickos Video Workshop over off Heather Lane on Bardstown Road (near the old mega theater) about starting a local video group and he was somewhat receptive. There will be a group. Where and what will transpire is the question. If your still interested send me another email and I'll send out information in the next couple of weeks.
