Quinn - Your vodcasting program with possible follow-ups is even more complete than the skype program. it's a terrific and quite thorough approach to disseminating the information to lots of people ... count me in!]]> Fri, 28 Nov 2008 23:22:46 +0000 http://www.studioQ.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2391&PID=15284#15284 Workshops & Demonstrations : UK Gathering - 22-23 November 2008 http://www.studioQ.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2178&PID=15276#15276 Author: jogane

Hello,

I havn't actually used the tent on location yet - I bought it justbefore the workshop for Quinn to take a look at so its all a bit new tome too. You need to add a zipper pull to close it from the inside andthere are some air vent holes that you have to make sure are pulledtight shut with cord to close - to shut out all the light, but this is quite easy to do.

It is quite heavy, but folds into a bag that you could carry on yourback over a couple of fields. I'm going to add some guide ropes to makeit more sturdy in the wind - at present I would worry it might blowaway. It folds up and down in about 10 mins - you need a rubber malletto knock the ends of the support poles in tight though, or else thecanvas frame won't stretch over the support poles. it is around a metersquare by 1.8m high (i'm short so this is ok!) I use a small foldingtable - which was advertised as a TV table! it is about 50cm square, soleaves room for me in there...

But the important thing is - it is affordable and quite usable! I'm not yet using my 10"x12" on location until I am well into a project - to save chemicals, but will start using the tent on location with this camera next year - for now I'm only making 4"x3" plates so I am just using a small box..

Thanks guy, exactly the info I need to hear. If you have any specific ideas, please pass them on. I'm going to do this, and I want to do it right.

I agree, I think this would have more potential and could be used as a resource for schools, presentations, etc. In other words, I could get a lot of mileage out of doing it this way.

Quinn,

sounds like a great idea. I can see you reaching more people this way instead of trying to do the workshop via skype.

Quinn, that's an interesting new take.
This could actually be advantageous in a lot of ways.
The main one I see is the follow ups.
For those of us that have been tinkering for awhile some of the material will be redundant and 'unnecessary'. Also, I'm sure some of the material will be of content some of us aren't currently doing (like negatives,pop or albumen).
So follow ups could focus on the areas of interest.
If you want to do roundtable follow ups, you might be able to consolidate similar questions for one 'meeting' and others for the next, thus avoiding the issue I stated above.

vodcasts sound great! just go ahead!]]> Fri, 28 Nov 2008 15:54:20 +0000 http://www.studioQ.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2391&PID=15254#15254 Workshops & Demonstrations : Wet Plate Workshop Vidcast http://www.studioQ.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2391&PID=15251#15251 Author: admin

Okay, as the research continues, I've found some interesting bits.

First, I'm now debating whether just to convert all of my digital video over and do VODCASTING (Video On Demand Casting), kind of like Podcasting, which I’m a big fan of. I'm even thinking of "publsihing" my book this way, with vodcasts and a PDF of my new book. Trees would love me, and people would have access to the information quickly and easily.

My VODCASTS would be broken into "workshop" sections or chapters and cover everything in incredible detail, with high quality video/audio.

There are several advantages to this; first, you have access to it anytime you want to watch it. Secondly, you can review it at anytime, and move to any part of the vodcast you want to see/hear. These are HUGE advantages over a live feed and the potential technical and time nightmares for some.

The downside is the "live" element. Here's my take; after the initial "workshop" series of vodcasts, I would move to email recommendations or do Skype hookups and have some "roundtable" chats about the burning questions. I would base my future vodcasts on these emails and discussions so that if I'm not covering something people want to know about, they can request it. There are always new things coming around about this process so there is always something to vodcast about.

What do you think about this? Is it something that you would be interested in? Don’t be shy, YES! or NO! please chime in!

Post Script:

If it's okay, everyone that reponds to this thread will be put on an email list so that I can communicate with you "offline". If you don't want an email or two about vodcasts, tell me and I'll take you off, no worries.
