Bruce A. Johnson
A 1981 graduate of the Boston University College of Communication, Bruce A. Johnson got his first job in broadcast television at WFTV, an ABC affiliate in Orlando, FL. While there, he rose through the ranks from teleprompter operator to videographer, editor, producer and director of many different types of programming. It was in the early 1980's that he bought his first computer - a Timex/Sinclair 1000 - a device he hated so much, he promptly exchanged it for an Atari 400. But the bug had bitten hard. In 1987, Johnson joined Wisconsin Public Television in Madison as a videographer/editor, and still works there to the present day. His responsibilities have grown, however, and now include research and presentations on the issues surrounding the digital television transition, new consumer technology and the use of public television spectrum in homeland security. He freelances through his company Painted Post MultiMedia, and has written extensively for magazines including DV and Studio Monthly.

NAB 2012: Trucolor Ohm Space Light400 watts of LED replaces a 6K? Sounds good to me. Next time you need to flood a room with soft light - in whatever color temperature - you should give the Ohm a look.

NAB 2012: EZ-JibEZ to use, EZ on your wallet I’ve always been intrigued by jib arms, and usually put off by their high prices. EZ-FX might have a solution to that problem.

NAB 2012: Profoto Reflector UmbrellasThe big one in the picture is TEN FEET TALL! When I walked past these the first time, I thought they might be antennas left on the Moon to shoot signals back to earth. But a little research proved to me that these are great lighting devices. NOTE: a big “Thanks!” to my colleague Erik Higgs for letting me edit on his laptop while I was in Vegas.

NAB 2012: Eizo 4K MonitorYou are going to have to look at your 4K footage on *something.* At NAB 2012, when you see a crowd of people clotted around a small booth, it’s a sign you should pay attention. The Eizo full 4K monitor I found there was easily one of the most beautiful I saw all week, with a price tag to match. Also: A belated “Thanks!” to my colleague Erik Higgs for letting me edit on his laptop while in Vegas.

NAB 2012: T3 Motion Camera TransporterKind of an unholy marriage between Ben-Hur and Blade Runner, and super-cool to boot. Steadicams have great uses, and some downsides - like severe back strain. Here’s a great product that can help you get fantastic shots and keep you out of traction.

LIGHTING: Advanced Cucoloris Use Illustrated by a Solar Eclipse
Q: What happens when you stack several pattern-making devices in front of a light? A: Extreme lighting goodness. Learn why here…
I love stacking cucolorii (plural of “cucoloris”) and I thought it was time to write an article about how this technique works and why I like it so much. I was a bit stretched for ideas that would illustrate this concept… and then an eclipse happened. Why that made a difference is a very interesting story…
