The Beginning of the End for Adobe's Flash By David Goldman CNNMoneyTech

Adobe is abandoning its Flash software for mobile devices, moving away from its seminal 15-year-old technology to embrace HTML5, a universal standard for displaying rich media on the Web. More»

Why This Matters: For over a decade, streaming as we know it was Flash-driven. The proprietary standard enjoyed massive market share—nearly 90% at one point--and allowed Adobe to push ahead with the streaming paradigm that set the course—everyone else had to adapt and encode. Adopting a universal standard is a big step for Adobe, but most of all it's good news for us. HTML5 promises to make it easier to move content from display devices to handhelds to computers. Content is driving the future of AV so the ability to move it more easily with a technical standard is key to proliferation. –Cynthia Wisehart

Canon’s 5D/7D Family vs. 35MM Film: A Cost Comparison

Hello loyal readers, it’s Andrea here to discuss the cost differences between 35MM film and today’s easily accessible Canon DSLR cameras in the 5D/7D family. But before we discuss the numbers, let’s take a moment to consider the fundamental differences producing for either medium: Wait for it… There aren’t any. Shocking, I know. Granted, there are significant differences in cost and ease of use when using the Canon 5D/7D, as compared to shooting on 35MM film. But the process of filmmaking is relatively the same.

Or at least it should be. Lets take a minute to go over the process and then we can get into the details in budgeting.

New HD HERO2 camera

GoPro has announced the release of its new HD HERO2 camera. Twice as powerful as GoPro's original HD HERO camera, the HD HERO2 enables consumers and professionals to capture and broadcast their lives most exciting moments in professional quality 1080p HD video and 11 megapixel photos. The new HD HERO2 is now available at GoPro.com, specialty retailers around the world, and at Best Buy for MSRP $299.99.

Arguably the most versatile camera in the world thanks to its innovative mounting system, renowned durability and small form factor, the HD HERO2 surpasses its predecessor with several technology upgrades. The HD HERO2's new processor delivers twice the processing power, taking full advantage of a new high performance 11 megapixel sensor that delivers more than twice the image detail along with professional low light performance. A totally redesigned wide-angle lens was required to take full advantage of the HD HERO2's increased image-processing, resulting in a lens that’s twice as sharp as the previous model. And with the arrival of GoPro's new Wi-Fi BacPac and Wi-Fi Remote products slated for release this winter, the HD HERO2 will enable video remote control via the Wi-Fi Remote, smartphones and devices, tablets and computers as well as enabling live GoPro video broadcast from anywhere there is Wi-Fi or a mobile hotspot.

Sony Announces New Upgrade of Vegas Pro Software

Sony Creative Software, a leading global provider of professional editing and authoring applications, has announced the latest upgrade to its Vegas editing technology. Vegas Pro 11 adds significant performance improvements to the award-winning NLE, courtesy of OpenCL and highly optimized GPU hardware acceleration for video processing and rendering. Vegas Pro 11 is the world's first Windows-based OpenCL NLE, broadly supporting the open standard for core video editing operations, video effects and rendering. Other new features include NVIDIA 3D Vision support for single-display 3D computers such as the VAIO F Series 3D laptops and L Series 3D desktops, an enhanced video stabilizer tool, and new software tools for creating animated titles.

"Sony continues to be a leader in developing professional content-creation applications that are extremely powerful, yet easy to use," said Dave Chaimson, vice president of global marketing for Sony Creative Software. "With the addition of GPU acceleration, Vegas Pro 11 streamlines the video editing experience by providing smoother previews and faster rendering times, ideal for industry professionals who work on tight deadlines where every second counts. Utilizing the OpenCL standard, customers will find that even very affordable GPU solutions from AMD and NVIDIA offer workflow enhancements that provide between two and four times faster rendering speeds, with equally as impressive performance gains during video playback." Vegas Pro 11 Feature Highlights:

Understanding Video Codecs

CODEC is one of those newly invented words that's only been in the dictionary for a few years, yet what it represents may be one of the most important pieces of technology in all of AV. There are at least two derivations of the term codec - some believe it's a contraction of the words "compression/decompression," and some insist it comes from "coder/ decoder." Some people think of the set-top box attached to a videoconferencing display, and some envision a codec as a bunch of programming code. All are correct, and no matter how you interpret the word, a codec is a critical component in the process of digital audio and video signal transmission.

A video codec is a combination of hardware and/or software that creates a binary stream of data that represents the video and audio captured by a camera.

DVI HDMI Signals Over Twisted-Pair Cable

Advances in cable, connector, and driver designs make it possible to send DVI and HDMI signals over longer distances. Now that sending RGB analog video long distance over Cat 5 is well accepted, it seems only fitting that DVI and HDMI are next. Accomplishing such a feat seems almost magical considering the challenge of simply buying a good quality dedicated DVI or HDMI cable. A fundamental understanding of the challenges and guidelines of DVI/HDMI transmission is necessary in order to take full advantage of long distance extender systems.

WHY THE DIFFERENCE IN CABLES?

Free Webinar: Final Cut Pro X Road Blocks

On October 6th, Oliver Peters will be presenting a free 90-minute webinar entitled Final Cut Pro X Road Blocks. The description from FilmmakingWebinars.com, "This webinar will explore the missing elements that have caused FCP X to be considered less-than-ready for the daily tasks currently tackled by Final Cut Pro 7. In addition, we'll look at whether some of these are merely temporary missing features that can be added later - or - whether the inherent design of the application prevents potential future updates that are adequate."

'Like Crazy': The Romance and Reality of HDSLR Filmmaking .From http://www.dv.com

Director Drake Doremus and cinematographer John Gulesarian initially planned to shoot the indie love story Like Crazy with a combination of RED ONE and Canon EOS 7D cameras: RED would be the primary tool, and the 7D would serve as a B-camera for grabbing shots on the run or getting very close to the actors in small spaces.
7D fitted with ARRI Ultra Prime lenses, however, they decided that they had the look they wanted for the entire feature.

Like Crazy tells the story of Jacob (Anton Yelchin) and Anna (Felicity Jones), who fall in love while attending college in L.A. and try to keep the magic going after British citizen Anna is forced to return to London. Doremus had developed a style of working with actors on his previous effort (his debut feature, Douchebag) of not formally blocking anything, instead allowing the actors to find their space on their own. Recalling their preproduction period, Guleserian says, "We realized that we could shoot the entire movie on the 7D and it would really add to the aesthetic Drake was after."

Apple starts to fine-cut Final Cut Pro X

Final Cut Pro X 10.0.1 and beyond
Available as an update through the App Store, Final Cut Pro X 10.0.1 adds several much-requested features, including support for full XML import/export of both project and event information; intelligent stem export for both video and audio files using a new feature called Roles; and Xsan integration, allowing editors in different locations to work with the same files, events, and projects.

final Cut Pro X has received criticism from professionals for being too iMovie-like, not offering the import/export features of its predecessor. 10.0.1 seeks to improve upon that.
“The professional [editor] is critical to Apple, and it’s a customer we don’t want to lose,” said Richard Townhill, Apple’s director of pro video product marketing, in a conversation with Macworld. Comparing Final Cut Pro X to Apple’s transition from OS 9 to OS X and the switch from PowerPC to Intel processors, he called the June 10.0 release “the first foundation stone in a building that’s going to be assembled over the next ten years,” with Tuesday’s updates providing the next brick.

In Review: GenArts Sapphire Edge

A good script or compelling documentary subject is the beginning. Of course, having well composed, exposed and creatively shot visuals helps. And don’t forget audio. Bad audio is a surefire way to lose your viewers. But it is the “look” that conveys the true feel of any piece.

GenArts recently released Sapphire Edge, a $299 collection of some 350 customizable looks presets combined with a one-year subscription to its new FX Central service. Now some readers might say, “There are tons of free looks out there on the Web, and besides, I can create my own.” Both are true. However, what sets Sapphire Edge apart from many albeit well constructed homebrew looks is the Sapphire render engine. Sapphire plug-ins have always ranked among my favorites, and the GenArts product line is used extensively in film and broadcast projects. The Sapphire engine is fast and its rendering is precise. It is the Sapphire core that makes Edge well worth the price of admission.

In Review: Red Giant Software Magic Bullet Suite 11

Red Giant Software is taking both a bundled and unbundled approach to its latest update of the Magic Bullet line of plug-ins. The Magic Bullet Suite consists of nine applications that can be bought separately or in the $799 bundle. The bundle represents the best buy, since individually those packages would cost more than $1,500. Included are Colorista II, Denoiser, Grinder, Instant HD, Looks 2, Mojo, Cosmo, PhotoLooks and Frames.

We’ve reviewed Colorista II (DV, September 2010), and I concur with my colleague Oliver Peters, who ranked it above other color correction plug-ins. Within FCP, it is my go-to color corrector.

Is DSLR Video User Friendly?

JOHNSTON, IOWA—When I was in the 6th grade, I received my first 35mm camera, an Edixa Reflex. It was a completely manual camera and as I recall it had a split image focusing screen which I still fondly remember as being the easiest way to focus a camera. (OK, my Polaroid Swinger did actually light up and say "YES" when the image was in focus but the finished product from the Swinger couldn't hold a candle to what came out of the Edixa.) I used the Edixa all through high school and into college but the camera mechanics were worn and finding lenses became a challenge so I moved to a Konica and then a Minolta. Now I am in the market and once again I am looking at a 35mm still camera and I recently had an opportunity to try out a Nikon D5100.

Grass Valley EDIUS 6

By Oliver Peters

Editing software manufacturers continue to expand features by adding native support for a variety of new camera codecs. EDIUS 6, the newest version of Grass Valley’s primary editing platform advances this endeavor.

EDIUS 6 is exclusively a Windows-based NLE, running under a wide range of configurations. I was able to test it on a new HP EliteBook 8740w with the Windows 7 64-bit Professional OS installed. This is a robust, top-of-the-line mobile workstation with more horsepower than most desktop units. I was operating in a software-only configuration, but EDIUS 6 can also be integrated with Grass Valley’s line of STORM and SPARK i/o cards when you use a tower instead of a mobile system.
