Re: Jameela Boardman's Article FVM October 2019
This has been a long and detailed discussion and the recent publication of Jameela’s article in the October FVM might encourage more members to contribute to the forum. My own observation is why are we using so much of our membership fees on the printed version of the FVM, when a digital version pub...

Clubroom/Film theatre upgrade due to Covid 19
The Edinburgh Cine & Video Society Clubrooms, including our 54 seat cinema, has been closed since March and it will be a long time before club meetings and events can take place. This is also due to the older age profile of our members and many have said they will not return until several issues...

LED lighting green hue
While taking a video in a coal mine I used aTriopo LED panel light, due to size and being battery operated, and the resulting footage when played back had a distinct green hue. The LED light is dimmable and can be adjusted between 3200K and 5600K using alternative rows of LED to create the colour t...

Use of Replica Firearms
I am planning a production that requires the use of a matched pair of 17 th Century duelling pistols. Has anyone else carried out a duelling scene using replica firearms in a public space such as a park. Are there any local authority, public and police notification/approvals needed prior to shooting...

Re: The Photography Show
I was at the Photography Show on the Monday and was very impressed by the wide range of exhibition stands and workshops offered. As Brian has already given a flavour of the video content of the show I will try and cover some of the other aspects of it. At one of the Filmmaking workshops the benefits...

Re: Where to from here part 2
John Roberts input is very welcome and I wish him the best in his endevours. Some input from myself is offered: 1. Taking the FMV issue first the current membership of the IAC, from the representative sample attending the AGM, is skewed to the over 65 age group, and as such will in the main prefer t...

Re: Where to from here?
[They managed to attract entries from budding professionals which we aren't getting today, more's the pity, because I honestly don't think that the standard has risen since those days, possibly it has even regressed] Thus is the rub! There are many young filmmakers across the UK who make films, that...

Re: Where to from here?
Most Universities have their own filmmaking section and this can be a very productive element or become just another social film viewing group. I don't know if the IAC has any links to these filmmaking groups, one of the problems is that due to the nature of their membership, continuity and ongoing ...

HDMI Signal extenders over CAT5 cable
I have to produce images from my pc for a show over some distance. I believe one solution is to use HDMI line extenders using CAT5 cable to link up the HDMI output of my computer to the corresponding on the remote projector. Has any one tried this out before and does it work, if it does, is there an...

Re: Creating a searchable video archive
Thanks for the info. I'm looking for something similar to CatDV that can capture, analyse and store HDV, AVCHD and SD formats. I think that CatDV is limited in the range of video formats it can capture and handle. Plex looks a very comprehensive media management system, and for club members interfac...
