[videoblogging] noob question...
Ok, this might sounds really dumb, but I'd rather not find out the hard way. Anne and I are looking at getting a dv camcoder in the next few days. I will have to get a firewire card for my pc, but that's fine. The camera records to a dv tape. Now when I capture to the pc (preimiere, virtualdub, whatever) this is goiing to come in the same as if I were capturing from our old analog camcorder via my tv-tuner card, yes? -- ~Devlon http://loadedpun.com - blogs, vlogs and video goodness http://mefeedia.com - The easiest way to find free video podcasts http://8bitme.blogspot.com http://devlonduthie.com Yahoo!

Depends on what you mean by the same. Before I bought the dv camcorder I have now, I did some test shots with a High 8 camcorder and dumped via an s-video-to-USB-converter. The quality was crap. A dump of dv over firewire is going to look a lot nicer and is more likely to be free of defects. If you mean to ask if it's a similar capture process, then they're somewhat comparable. -- Rhett. - This message was sent using Endymion MailMan. http://www.endymion.com/products/mailman/ Yahoo!

Yeah, it was the capture process I was after. Thanks -- Rhett. - This message was sent using Endymion MailMan. http://www.endymion.com/products/mailman/ Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Noob Question - Animations?
Hi everyone! I'm not new to blogging OR video editing -- but I am new to video blogging, AND I just got my first Mac (iMac Core Duo) yesterday, so I'm still trying to get the hang of it (but I'm LOVING it so far). My question is: I've seen a lot of vlogs using short animated clips. Not just the title-effects or transitions from iMovie -- but short animations such as some of the Creative-Commons animations that are in the Files secton of this yahoo group. I was wondering what software is used to create those animations (specifically on a Mac)? Thanks! - Mandi Yahoo!

Re: [videoblogging] Noob Question - Animations?
hi mandi,depends on the type of animation. some use flash or director to animate. flash is a lot easier than director, in my opinion. stop animation is done using stills. you can do animation using a scanner (some of those can be pretty cool, i think! love low tech solutions). really, anything that can make an image in a format that's compatible with your editing software is fair game. there are lots of freeware and shareware products to check out if you're looking specifically for animation software. just google them. way to brag about your new computer, too! i'm jealous!!anneOn 4/6/06, Mandi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Hi everyone!I'm not new to blogging OR video editing -- but I am new to video blogging, AND I just got my first Mac (iMac Core Duo) yesterday, soI'm still trying to get the hang of it (but I'm LOVING it so far).My question is:I've seen a lot of vlogs using short animated clips.

Mandi,I use flash and then export it as a .mov file.I made a bunch of screen shot tutorials at one point.http://www.umr.edu/~rhall/flash On 4/7/06, Mandi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi everyone!I'm not new to blogging OR video editing -- but I am new to videoblogging, AND I just got my first Mac (iMac Core Duo) yesterday, soI'm still trying to get the hang of it (but I'm LOVING it so far).
