So when I got on the plane to return to Boston after several days in Vegas and at NAB, I had this sinking feeling that I had missed a lot of things and people that I wanted to see. I’m not sure if it was mis-management of my time, my hurting back or the constant beckoning of the blackjack tables, but I definitely wanted to do more in my time at NAB. Oh well. It was still a great trip and I saw cool things and cool people, and I already can’t wait for next year.
So here’s the highlights of this year’s show: Read more…

So back in April I wrote my recap of attending my first NAB conference. I discussed how one of the items I was checking out to buy was a new HD field monitor. I wanted something to work with my 7D (which I was starting to use more then) and my EX-1 (as well as any other camera going forward). I was most interested in the existing Marshall 7″ offering, the prototype Marshall 5″ and the SmallHD DP-6. I settled on the SmallHD and soon after returning from NAB, pre-ordered one. The big selling point for me (other than image quality) was that the DP6 would have HDMI, Component AND HD-SDI inputs. Neither of the Marshall monitors had that. This meant it would work with any camera out there, which was a huge plus. They “guaranteed” that we would have the monitor 75 days after purchase. That was fine; I wasn’t in a huge rush. Read more…

I wasn’t planning to do a review of my new purchase, but some Twitter buddies were curious about my new tripod, so I thought I’d post a little overview. It just arrived yesterday and has not gone on a shoot yet, but I played with it a bit today and can go over some of the features. The tripod in question is the Manfrotto (Bogen) 535 Carbon Fiber legs with the new 504HD head. I wanted a second tripod and when I was at NAB, in April, that was one of the things I was looking for.

I just got back last night from my first trip to the NAB Show in Las Vegas, and after a good night’s sleep I am now beginning to feel human again. It was a short trip, only there for 2 full days, but I sacrificed sleep in order to pack each day with as much stuff as possible, and my head is still spinning a little from everything I saw and everyone I met. This trip also included what will hopefully be the first of many All-In Film Charity Poker Tournaments on Monday night. It went great, and was well received. I will go through my highlights of the whole trip for you all. Read more…

I am very excited that today I get to announce the “All-In Film: Charity Poker Tournament” that I conceived to take place during the NAB show in April (National Association of Broadcasters). Last fall when attending and shooting at the “Blogs with Balls” conference they held a similar tournament and it was a blast, so I am (not so subtly) taking their model and running with it. This promises to be an awesome event. It will take place on Monday, April 12th at the Hard Rock Casino’s very swanky Poker Lounge. This will be a great way for industry folks to meet-up and we have a few celebrity filmmakers that will be in attendance. Read more…
