Izzy Video 74 - High Def vs. Standard Def

izzyvideo74

For the second members-only episode of the month of December, I did a fun video showing some differences between the imagery from a High Definition camera and the imagery from a Standard Definition camera.

I used my Canon GL-2 to shoot the standard definition footage, and I used my brand new Sony XDCAM EX to shoot the high definition footage.

Do I like the new camera? I love it!

Izzy Video 73 - Masking and the Alpha Channel

izzyvideo73

“Masking” appears to be more complex than it is. It’s a visual effect that we frequently see in video, and it uses layers. In this installment of Izzy Video, I introduce you to the concept of “masking”. I also briefly explain what the “Alpha Channel” is.

A simple, but powerful, video.

I know this video is old, but I just saw it tonight for the first time. I love stuff like this. If you have a website, please consider embedding it.
