In an effort to become more of a DV resource than just the weekly (weekend) video podcast, I’ve decided to start doing some blogging during the week, especially when I find valuable DV-related resources.

This article from Cnet.co.uk is a great example of the types of resources available on the internet. Like most amateur videographers, I’m mostly self-taught, meaning that I’ve spent many hours on the internet, watching training videos, reading books, and absorbing information from almost any source I can find. Then I practice it, learn from my mistakes, and keep going. I imagine that’s the way most of us learn these days.

Regarding the article — While I’ve talked about most of the 10 steps recommended from Cnet, there are several in the list which I haven’t yet covered. Many of them are well discussed. They are certainly worthy of your time.

I’m not sure how effective making a mic boom out of a broom handle would be, but like many people, I have a limited budget, so if I can save a few bucks by using a broom handle and gaffer’s tape, then I’m willing to at least try.

Check out the article. There’s some interesting info inside.
