Kembali ke bangku sekolah

I love being in a room, absorbing information that I'm interested in. A couple of months back, I caught wind that a gentleman by the name of Douglas Spotted Eagle is coming to town to give a workshop on video production called Power Production. Without second thoughts, I jumped on the chance to be tutored by one of Hollywood's lesser-known but recognized (having won multiple Emmys and Grammys) audio/video/music guy.

Douglas, also known affectionately as 'Spot', has quite an array of achievements under his belt. He's responsible for the music of The Last Samurai and has worked with countless Hollywood powerhouses. Click here to see for yourself.

Power Production Workshop
The 2-day workshop, which was held yesterday and today, was essentially a drive to encourage the usage of High-Definition Video or HDV in our productions. He's a Vegas user (as I am) and his lectures were very engaging and honest. We basically covered all there is to be covered on the essentials of video production like shot composition, chroma-keying, miking, editing, management etc. The course set me back about RM700 but it was all worth it. Next step, Sony and Dolby Certification! (am dreaming of it first...)
