Santa Monica Video

Thursday, May 13th, 2010

When I started to work with DigiBetas a few years ago, I had to figure out a way to capture them or transfer them to my editing system. Purchasing a DigiBeta Deck was out of the question since price and service are very expensive. So I decided to go to a Duplication/Encoding facility to do the work. I stooped by Santa Monica Video and never left.

Well, I did try somebody closer to my studio once, but it was slower and the customer service was not what I wanted or deserved.

In SMV things are completely different, the team there is just amazing, From the people in the front to the guys in the machine room. You walk in feeling welcomed and you know that the quality of the service they provide is the best in the industry. I know that some times I ask too much, there is always a project that is late, but they do their best to help me and ALWAYS they have surprised me with their speed and great atitude.

I thank you for your excellent work and for the amazing service you provide small companies like ours. And special thanks to Theo for all that you do.

Sincerely

The Crexels’ Team

iPad while Recording a VO

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010

I have been inside a Recording studio for four days and it saddens me to see all the paper that it is wasted. Even though we recycle and use the paper on both sides.

So last time I took a different route and a nicer one. Even the talent was happier. The only problem is that they we very easily distracted.

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

ModMyI has an article where the think that Apple will be unveiling the new iPhone on June 22nd Apple usually has its big event at The Yerba Buena Center for Arts, located by the Moscone Center in San Francisco. And they have reserved the place for an event on the 22nd. We will see is the new iPhone has the camera in front, how it will work with the iPhone 4.0 software and if it will go to Verizon.

Many questions and of course no answers until Steve Jobs stands on the stage and show us they new toy (or toys)

iPhone 4.0

Monday, April 5th, 2010

iPhone 4.0 is coming soon. Apple just sent invitations to the media for an event on April 8th. That is just 3 days away. Hopefully, Multitasking will be finally here and who knows, we might see some info on the upcoming phones like the front facing camera everybody wants (at least me). I would prefer the camera on the phone than in the iPad.
I would also like to see Calendar info on the lock screen. It is a perfect place to put the calendar since Unlocking->Find the right page->Calendar takes more time if you just want to see it.
We will have to wait and see what new and “I can’t live without” new features will Apple unveil on the 8th.
