Mexico is a country which has an incredible amount to offer. Its history, both cultural and political, is writ large upon the landscape in a fascinating manner. Its culture is unique, its food is spectacular, and its scenery takes a lot of beating for both beauty and variety.
As a member of LinkedIn, there are a few groups to which I belong. Sometimes I’m fortunate enough to stumble across a great discussion regarding business or in particular, the field of broadcast production and multimedia. The following discussion, in which professionals share their own personal stories of their best career move, I felt was worth sharing with you….. Interspersed are some production stills we have shot over our years of producing and shooting video here in San Diego.
We love most everything the West Coast has to offer (other than the traffic jams). We love the diversity of cultures. We enjoy the restaurants featuring eclectic foods, the small-craft breweries, the beaches, the mountains, the deserts, the weather and the feeling that this is Paradise.
The way it works is this: Over the course of a day or more, the shooter covers the conventioneers and speakers at break-out sessions, gala events, award ceremonies, recreational activities out and about the hosting town, etc., and then delivers the raw footage to the editor who is on-site where a mobile editing system has been set up. The footage is copied onto the hard drive, along with music, logos and any other desired elements, and the editor then spends the next ten hours or more (sometimes all night long) creating a piece that will be played on IMAG screens for the conventioneers at a designated time, i.e., breakfast or lunch on the final day.
