Hi, everyone!
As you know, I’m conducting a session on Saturday regarding online video at the Podcamp AZ. Because this is an unconference, the audience plays a significant role in the session. That said, I’m thinking we should get some discussion going before the session. What questions do you have? What comments would you like to make?
In what direction do you want the session to go?
Leave comments here if you’d like. You can also email me at israelhyman (at) gmail (dot) com. You can twitter me at www.twitter.com/israelhyman or you can always call me at 480-980-1533. Yes, that’s really my mobile number. :-)

This installment of Izzy Video is all about light positions. It shows the various results which come from moving the key light relative to the subject. I demonstrate “Broad Lighting” and “Short Lighting” among other topics.
This video is available in the members area.

I’m going to do a free session called “Improve Your Online Video” on November 3rd at Podcamp AZ. The Podcamp is free. My session is free. You can follow this link to register. If you can make it to Phoenix on November 3rd, please join us. I’m hoping to see as many of you there as possible.
Following is the description for my session:
Aesthetically, most web video is pretty horrible. Because folks don’t know how easy it is to create good video, they make major blunders. They shoot up their own nostrils; they distort their faces with incorrect lens settings; they ignore audio quality. Avoid these pitfalls! Beginner or pro? Come join the discussion.
Oh, and by the way, I believe Podcamp AZ is going to be streamed live over the internet using Ustream.tv, so if you can’t make it to Phoenix on November 3rd, you can still enjoy much of the event.
Finally, my friend, Justine Ezarik (yes, the iPhone “Bill in a Box Video” Justine), is having a Photoshop contest to help promote Podcamp AZ. Maybe you’d like to participate?

I thought you might be interested in seeing the studio setup I use for Paperclipping. In this video, I show you how I convert a room in my house into a temporary studio. It usually takes about 30 minutes, but in this video, it only takes a few minutes. Enjoy!
This video is available to members only.

Over the past two years, I have received many questions dealing with Compression. In this video, I do an introductory tutorial on the subject. I explain what compression is, what a codec is, conceptually how compression works. Also, I review some of the settings inside Compressor, Apple’s compression application which comes with Final Cut Studio.
Future tutorials will go more in-depth on the subject of compression.
