Videomaker Presents — Episode 62: VIDEO BITS & BYTES: News from NAB. TIPS & TRICKS: Using camera levels to change perspective. TAKE 20: "Crawfish Hunter", by John Westerlund. HANDS ON: JVC Everio GZ-MG555 camcorder.
This week's "Videomaker Presents" goes outdoors... Our studio is in the state of upheaval due to packing for our upcoming Summit in Los Angeles, so we set up a "remote" studio on the patio of VMHQ. Meanwhile, John and Mark were in Las Vegas covering NAB, the National Broadcasters show, and Mark brings us a brief report fresh from the show for our news segment of Video Bits & Bytes
In our Tips & Tricks segment, Jennifer shows us how taking the camera from eye level to a low or higher level can change the perspective of a shot and enhance the emotional mood of your scene.
In this week's "Take 20", Charlie and Jennifer show us "The Crawfish Hunter", by John Westerlund. This video demonstrates a sweet example of how to get the kids into the act, and it's edited tightly with the perfect length to share with friends.
In our "Hands On" segment, Charlie takes us on a quick tour of the JVC Everio GZ-MG555 camcorder, which includes a 30GB hard drive and a dock connection that allows for quick connection to a computer or television.
