Adam Wilt has been working off and on in film and video for the past thirty years, while paying the bills writing software for animation, automation, broadcast graphics, and real-time control for companies including Abekas, Pinnacle, Omneon, CBS, and ABC.
Since 1997 his website, adamwilt.com, has been a popular reference for information on the DV formats. He has reviewed cameras for DV Magazine and written its "Technical Difficulties" column, and taught classes and led panels at NAB, IBC, and DV Expo. He co-authored the book,"Optimizing Your Final Cut Pro System", part of the Apple Pro Training series; he hopes you'll buy a copy, as there's still a large advance to be paid off.

Stuff I saw on the final day of NAB 2008
Softron Media Systems demoed their suite of fully Mac-native broadcast automation apps, with OS X compliant user interfaces. Their capture and playout apps use AJA or BlackMagic cards, standard codecs, and are AppleScriptable. Never heard of Softron? They’ve been in TV Stations in Europe and Asia for several years; in Russia this past year; they’re just now coming into North America. If you’re interested in Mac-flavored broadcasting, dowload demo software or the user manuals and see for yourself.
Of course, there are other Macintosh broadcast apps—BUG.tv is also Mac-centric, and Building4Media‘s front ends are cross-platform—but I thought Softron deserved a look since they’re new to our market.
