Interesting (if wet) morning at this video trade show in Easton at Stonehill College. Particular fun highlights include seeing the Pelican rep nearly break the viewfinder off an $8000 Canon XL H1 trying to demonstrate a too-small case. I spent a while talking to a turnkey system saleman from EditHD about an Edius system (a cross between odious and oedipus?) – it’s extremely tempting to get something like for a dedicated Adobe system given that my desktop is trying to die on me (it’s just waiting for the worst possible moment, clearly a subscriber to the apex of despair school of thought). By far the coolest yet not terribly practical-for-me* product I saw is this reflecmedia collapsible green screen with blue and green LED ring lights. Here’s a great demonstration of this.
Oh also, randomly ran into Adam (of TIKL ‘fame’) on the way out.
*Coudal saying the green screen is good for bad star wars makes me want it all the more.
