"Of the new titles released last year, almost 99
percent of them didn't sell enough copies to let
their creators earn a living from CD sales, and
almost 95 percent of them didn't sell enough
copies to cover the most basic expenses involved
in their recording."
I was
interviewed for this documentary. I'm looking
forward to seeing it.http://www.galloway.tv/reppt/ "Release

& Comcast VOD

Director’s Comment: I’ve done nearly
200 speeches in the last 3 years, and in every
one, clients insisted I include a PowerPoint
presentation. My film “Why Walmart
Works” was about the scale and influence of
Walmart, and I became fascinated with the scale
of PowerPoint, which has an estimated 400 million
users worldwide.
The documentary “Regarding
Powerpoint” traces the origin of the
program and its subsequent development.
We’ll look at who uses the program for what
purposes. The film will also address
PowerPoint’s effect of cognitive
development and syntax structure, i.e., is
society beginning to think in outlines and bullet
points, as opposed to to paragraphs? Does anybody
give a speech without slides anymore? Will
audiences listen to one?
Much as Walmart dominates physical distribution
of goods, PowerPoint has come to dominate
business expression and presentation.
“Regarding Powerpoint” will attempt
to put the program’s influence on business,
education, and thinking into meaningful
context."

"On a Mac, the sky's the limit for creating
professional video. With all the tools available
though, it can be a daunting task to decide which
ones offer the best solutions for combined
efficiency and high-level results. How can you
effectively communicate your vision to clients
and crew? How should you calibrate your camera
for multi-camera and green screen shoots? Is it
better to do your keying in After Effects,
Motion, or Final Cut? How should you set up your
edit suite for efficiency and accuracy? How do
you manage large amounts of media and a multitude
of formats for multiple software applications?
In
Video Made on a Mac, you'll learn the answers and
much more. Chock-full of practical advice and
step-by-step instructions, each chapter provides
insight on the critical components of production
and postproduction that can make all the
difference when you're up against a tight budget
and schedule. The accompanying DVD supplies you
with project files and high-definition footage so
you can follow along with the examples, as well
as 50 training videos. Whether you're an advanced
Mac user or just beginning to incorporate Adobe
Creative Suite into your Final Cut Studio
workflow, you'll learn to apply best-practice
techniques to all your video projects."
I've always been a
huge Arrested Development (AD) fan since college.
Many haven't realized that the band has continued
to release new music at a regular pace.
Here's their latest music video, shot entirely
with a Canon 7D camera. Been studying up on this
process as I am in the middle of co-authoring a
book on DSLR filmmaking right now.
