We put all three to work in real-world office and studio settings, and the overall experience has been a striking reminder that good equipment extends beyond lenses, cameras, and digital technology. Successful creative professionals use every tool that improves efficiency and productivity, including furniture. They make their work space work for them.

Together, PVC and Createasphere are going to take these sites to a bigger and more stable place, both online and in-person.  I plan on being part of the transition to make sure things run smoothly, and potentially much longer.  I am really excited about this transition to PVC 2.5 and will finally be able to realize much of our plans moving forward.

Many times I’ve been asked if PVC will do a print version.  In fact, there have been so many times, it now makes sense to find out what the market is for print?  We have a very brief survey, in fact only three questions long, to test the waters.  If you like PVC and would like to see more, perhaps in print, please take a few moments to fill out the survey.  If we move forward with a print version, and if there’s a subscription fee, the first 1,000 respondents to the survey will get a free subscription to PVC. C’mon, three questions!  Here’s the survey Thanks, this really helps us plan.

Sponsored by http://adobe.com We spent a good deal of time with Chuck at NAB.  I was interested in the DSLR as much as the new video cameras.  What caught my attention most was his discussion of the Technicolor partnership.  I would bet we hear more about that, and expanding that partnership over time… Cameras, GentryMedia Sister Sites, HDSLR, Mac Coalition, ProPhoto Coalition, ProVideo Coalition, NAB 2011, Production 2011-04-20T20:15:14+00:00 http://provideocoalition.com/index.php/sgentry/story/adobe_cs_5.5_video_walk_through/ http://provideocoalition.com/index.php/sgentry/story/adobe_cs_5.5_video_walk_through/#When:20:08:23Z Adobe CS 5.5 Walk Through from ProVideo Coalition on Vimeo.
