Preview: Sony PMW-350 2/3” 3-CMOS XDCAM EX CamcorderXDCAM EX bulks up and goes shoulder-mount… for a price.
Sony has announced the PMW-350, the first 2/3” camcorder in the EX series of solid-state memory-based MPEG2 camcorders. It’ll ship in January 2010. Sony kindly lent me a pre-production prototype for a week, and this preview is the result: not an all-out review, because the PMW-350 isn’t finished yet, but a good “first look” that’s probably 90% accurate regarding the final product. more » |

Compositing in FCP X
On this week’s MacBreak Studio
On this week’s MacBreak Studio, I show Steve Martin from Ripple Training a few things I’ve discovered in my exploration of the compositing features in Final Cut Pro X.
David Atkins Enterprises and Digital Pulse use Adobe software for record-setting arena projection
Australian production studio delivers animation for the 12th Arab Games, on record-size projection space, using Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.
In December 2011, the 12th quadrennial Arab Games took place in Doha, Qatar at Khalifa International Stadium. As part of the planning process for the Doha games, the world-renowned event production agency, David Atkins Enterprises (DAE), was commissioned to conceive and produce the opening and closing ceremonies. Following this commission, DAE contracted Australian digital design and video production specialists, Digital Pulse, to produce the animated visuals for the opening ceremony including the athletes’ parade and cultural segments. Far from a conventional production canvas, the animated visuals that the Digital Pulse team were to produce for the event would have to play seamlessly across the stadium’s two different playback systems: a contiguous LED system installed behind all stadium seats and an 86-projector projection system that covered a world record 12,600 cubic metres of on-field projection space.
