We'll try to ease your pain...

• 7:05 - 8:00pm - Choosing a Camera / Tapeless Workflow in the Field
Choosing a Camera / Tapeless Worksflow in the Field will cover the fundamentals of different formats and codecs for shooting video on a tapeless set or in the field. Learning the differences in each manufacturer’s products and how it affects post will be a major
topic covered in this class. Other topics will include various shooting styles in a tapeless environment and techniques for downloading and preserving media in the field, including solutions such as AJA’s KiPro. We will also outline the costs involved in a tapeless world
and compare them to various modern tape-based mediums and traditional acquisition options.

• 8:00 - 8:20pm - Choosing Storage and Media Management 101
Storage and Media Management is one of the key components when shooting tapeless. This class will cover the basics of storing media from downloading on set all the way through post-production and archiving digital media. We will explore storage solutions
for a variety of applications and introduce the concept of using RAID arrays for storage, which will also be covered in-depth in
Media Management 201.

• 8:30 - 9:30pm - Prepping for Post-Production via Pre-Production / Q&A Panel
In this new age of formats and choices, the workflow and decision making process for post-production actually begins before shooting frame one of your project. Topics covered in this class will include advanced techniques and tools for downloading and organizing tapeless footage a steps to follow from pre-production through post. Adobe's Steve Whatley will be demonstrating some revolutionary new ways to use metadata from script to distribution, as well as using OnLocation in the field.
