Out with the old; in with the new
A few weeks ago, we published our second free newsletter: PVC Pipeline | Post. During that time, subscribers had exclusive access to the articles it contained. These articles are now available for all PVC users to view; a list of them is included below.
We are about to publish our third newsletter: PVC Pipeline | Distribution. It will contain an article on video podcast production from Alex Lindsay, an audio podcast of a roundtable discussion on distribution organized by the folks at FreshDV, a review of Übercaster by Allan Tépper, as well as other articles. To receive exclusive access to these articles before everyone else, click here for your free subscription!

Own a Smartphone? The fastest growing tech segment is smartphone applications…what are the best?
Apps4Phones is just going into beta and we’re on the hunt for seriously knowledgable writers who understand any or all of the following: iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Google Android, Palm Pre and more.
What’s the site about?
It truly is the fastest growing segment of the tech industry, and there are lots of phone applications to choose from. Apple knocked one out of the park with the iPhone and the Apps Store, now everyone is getting in on the action. BlackBerry seems ready to launch their Apps Store perhaps as soon as April 1. Palm will have theirs, Google Android already has theirs and there’s more coming…
Sure it has little to do with PVC, except that the same great model that we use to attract the best writers in the industry, will be used in our sister Apps4Phones.com site. In addition, there are cetainly plenty of video and photography focused phone applications already, with more to come. Just take a look at Allan’s recent Roxio post.
It’s still early beta, and full potential. Feedback is always welcome.

For sale cheap: 2 Canon XH A1’s hardley used…
Damn this is some still. For a camera said to cost approximately $2,500, I want one. Think Jim would send one my way if I ask really, really nicely? Test purposes of course…NAB is going to be fun this year. The line for the RED booth just got longer… “That just happened”

Be the first to receive these newsletters with original reviews and techniques by PVC authors.
ProVideo Coalition (PVC) was launched in February 2008, and we appreciate the positive response we’ve received from our fellow video professionals. Now that it’s February 2009 (where has the time gone?), we are launching a line of newsletters: PVC Pipeline, which will contain original articles written by PVC authors. Subscribers receive advance access to these articles before they appear on the rest of the PVC website. Subscriptions are free; just click on the link in the upper right corner of each page, or here: SUBSCRIBE
The first newsletter - PVC Production Pipeline - will be released in a few days, and covers the subjects of cameras, lights, editing, and other production-related matters. The first issue is evenly divided between reviews and techniques pieces, including:
- Adam Wilt reviewing the Sony HDW-650F HDCAM Camcorder
- Steve Hullfish reviewing the Adobe live-capture application OnLocation CS4
- Allan Tépper reviewing the video production live command center BoinxTV
- Bruce Johnson sharing how to build a lighting kit out pieces available at any home center or lumberyard
- Kendal Miller illustrating how to take advantage of depth cues when compositing your shots
- Art Adams explaining what that innocuous “gain” control actually does, and how to best employ it
The second PVC Pipeline newsletter - due around the first of March - will cover the area of post-production, while we’re still cooking up which subjects to cover in our third newsletter (suggestions welcome!). So make sure you subscribe, and then keep your eyes on your email inbox for the first edition of PVC Pipeline.

PVC will be upgrading the server 1/21/09 between 2:29AM-02:59AM PST
We’re just about to hit our 1 year anniversary at PVC on February 1. Due to the large volume of traffic, we’re forced to upgrade our servers to handle the load. Good problems to have.
With that, the site will be down between 2:29am - 2:59am PST tomorrow the 21st.
Very sorry for the inconvenience, but this will make the overall site faster.

Unibody constructions comes to the 17”
This introduction is really no surprise. Given that Apple has moved to this type of unibody construction across their entire laptop line. I personally have the 15” and love it. While I suspected the 17” would be announced at MacWorld when I purchased this a few months ago, I couldn’t wait.
