Where do you guys store your videos?

Just wondering where mist people store their video, in the movies folder or in iMovie? I currently am importing all the movies taken from my iPhone in the past 2 years to iMovie. A folder named let's say June 2010 has 16 videos in it and so I import that entire folder and create an event called June 2010 and so on. But lately I'm questioning this method cause I can't see a way to see the date of one of those videos once in iMovie, the only thing the event shows me is let's say June 02 through June 27 2010. How do you do it?

Where do you guys get your clients? I need side jobs

Sorry if off topic. I use premiere cs4 and AE. I work for a non-profit org so all my work is for them. I would like to start doing small projects outside of work. I placed ads on craigslist but all i seem to get is spam replys. production hub seems slow. How do you guys put yourself out there? I don't really have any connections.

The MOD's will probably move this to the Video Lounge, as that is the proper place for it, so watch in case it "disappears."
In my case, most of my clients come either from my still client-base, or via word of mouth. Many of the latter seem to come from my circle of "friends," and from people related to my social endeavors, i.e. networking.
One possibility would be to offer to do pro-bono editing for other not-for-profit groups. With permission, add full credits, including contact info. I sit on a few charity boards and we often do some major AV productions for the events. As these involve much more than just editing, and I also have a full "dance card," we use some pro-bono (in kind donations) productions. All of our printed materials have full credits to the production houses, and we ask that each do a full credit portion. For materials that we hand out at the events, or use in pre-event promotion, we ask that those production houses put their credits on the printed discs. This obviously helps us (pro-bono production), so we want to help them. I will also donate editing time, where appropriate, to those suppliers, should they need additional work.
Back when I was shopping my portfolio more actively, I donated my services to organizations like the Denver Art Directors Club, and the Denver Ad Federation. I picked up dozens of clients from the donated projects. It also gave AD's and Creative Directors an opportunity to work with me on the pro-bono projects, so that they knew my capabilities and personality - at no charge to them.
Lot of good comes from doing a "favor" under the right circumstances.
Good luck, and look for this to go to the Lounge.

[Edit] I see that the MOD's DID move the thread to the Lounge. This is where I would have put it too. Hope that the OP finds it here. If they saw any of the early replies, should not be an issue.

Where do you guys place your Mac in your live rigs?

I've been trying to do live gigs with a single 88 key controller (a Yamaha Motif 8 or a Motif ES8 as I've got both), with my MBP on the 2ne tier of my keyboard stand (using a shelf of all things). Most drops nicely down onto the right side of the Motif and it's usable that way.
Thing is... I'm really wanting to use both Motif's live. Sure, I can zone MainStage to death and use all 88 keys that way, but my head wants strings and horns to be "somewhere else" than on the same keyboard as pianos, organs and other synths.
So... 2nd controller probably going to happen, but the Mac's got to go somewhere, and I want it somewhere "within reach".
So, what-ya-all-usin'?
I've got a 17" MPB.

Gotta say I was embarrased to write back to any public forum that I ended up using Velcro (indeed klittenband in Dutch :)).
Oh the shame of it all... but hey, it works...
So, if you were to do this... the velcro "pads" are taller than the rubber feet on the bottom of the Speck cover - on a flat, hard surface the MBP wants to "slide" a bit easier than normal, but for everyday use not a problem. and seriously, the MBP is going nowwhere while velcroed onto it's spot...
Yeah, I've got a Motif 8 and an ES8. Love the sounds out of these things. I kept my classic 8 because there was something different about the sound between the two. The ES is transparent, the classic has a "bump" to it that's a bit like always have some resonance in the filters... it "barks" a bit, and somehow, that's a good thing.
So, live, or at least with MainStage, it's a pain in the total rear to move stuff around in a coordinated fashion between MainStage and the Motifs. If MainStage would sent out program changes, it would be easy, but it doesn't. Could do it the other way around, and set the program changes MainStage to respond to, that proved cubersome as well, especially if you copy/paste,drag/drop patches around between different concert files...
So... in the end, I using MainStage for all sounds, which means that I don't have any of the Motif's kickin' Rhodes and Wurly's happening. For piano, I'm using Ivory although I've got to say that the Motif pianos really are great. Organs are EVB3 to which the Motif simply holds no candle.
So, I've also got the Korg Legacy stuff, including the M1 thing with all the T patches, although the star in that setup is the WaveStation...
Horns... Need to do something about this... but I've never liked sample-driven horns... FM? a bit "wanky" and too many sine waves... need some kind of fat analog thing "under" the samples... haven't got that right yet...
Remember, this is a live rig in a band with two guitar players... As the synth and organic instruments guy, I've got "my place" in this band... hey, I'm happy with the sound I generating, I hear it through a set of in-ear monitors, I'm getting a lot of questions about where "all that sound is coming from" so it must sound okay in the mix in the house too.
I'm capable of doing my own sound design so it turns out that I can get all the pads etc that I need out of the Logic Studio suite of softsynths and the EXS24...
We're going to cover that Amy Winehouse song "Valerie". that's a lot of stuff. Tremolo strings, there's pad underneath that, there's that tubular bell, another bell that enunciates most of the chord changes, then those individual horns, wickedly (oh that's natural) out of tune with each other. that should be a good workout for MainStage...
The Motifs have simply GREAT feeling keybeds... I tried one of the m-audio 88 key controllers - cool - LOTS of knobs. They generate MIDI messages. The sliders and four rotary pots on the Motifs only generate MIDI CC data when in Master mode (more editing to do)... the m-audio controller just felt strange, almost "wrong". Too bad, they're otherwise a great idea and the price is right too.
So yeah, the Motifs are now just controllers, no audio coming out of em, but... should the MBP ever fail, I'd use the Motifs as sound generators too... I used to trust a Yamaha KX88 controller (it generated no sounds either) and a 20 space rack of synths. Kind of the same deal I guess...
At the end of the day, sonically, the Motif's are awesome and they get used, albeit less and less as sound sources in my studio setup. Live, MainStage and a bunch of AUs get the job done. Without Ivory, I would not have chosen this route.
MainStage itself remains a struggle, as I've got repeatable behavior where MainStage corrupts pointers between patches and the underlying components (channel strips, and settings of an AU within a channel strip) while copying/pasting, dragging/dropping without any hint of an error message etc. It just "goes wrong". Most of the time, this happens near the limits of MainStage's memory limits, but reading that display (at least the graphic) is pointless.
Does all this explain why I'm using this the way I am at the moment?

Where did you guys get your MSI 655 mobo's?

I've looked everywhere. I cant find a place on the net to purchase a 655.
thanks :D

I haven't seen any HT capable ones out there. I got mine from Knowledge Micro. They were the only ones at the time that clearly said no HT. At the time there were no HT 655Max boards out there. MWave also has them.
Edited: 150.00 at Knowledge Micro.

How do you guys like your GFX5900XT's???

Hey im in the market for a new computer and Ive been searching around for a good video card for the money. Well i came across PCSTATS review of the MSI
FX5900XT.
http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=1543
It blew me away that a card priced less than half could overclock so high and reach 5950 Ultra like speeds while still being stable.
I came here to ask how you guys find your 5900XTs and what (if any) overclocking issues you may have. Is it really that good?
Thanks

I CAN'T OVERCLOCK MINE AND CAN' :angryfire:T MONITOR TEMPERATURA
FAN RPM AND VOLTS
BUT HAVE VERY GOOD RESULTS IN BENCHMARKS

Where do you guys (or girls) learn??

When I ask a question on this forum, I know that after school
I can return to my computer to find a slew of useful answers. So I
ask another: Where do you guys learn how do use flash so well?? I
personally am self taught, and use various internet tutorials if I
want to do specific things... but just general knowledge of the
entire program? I have seen various flash books in bookstores, but
while flipping through them they look like the Adobe Live Docs,
just ActionScript, and their usage. Also, I live in a hick town in
the middle of know-where, so theres no chance of finding a flash
course, or even a lecture of two.
Where do you folks learn, and is there anything available to
me that would be more than reading an ActionScript dictionary, but
wouldn't need me driving half way across the country to find a
flash course?
THANKS!
-Donald J

Guy, in this case.
Here at my office, mainly. ;)
Set yourself a target, try to solve it on your own. If it
does not work
out, look for help in Flash related forums, newsgroups,
articles, books
or ask your friendly Flash guru acquaintance. That's me.
Not the Flash guru acquaintance, but all the rest. That's how
I learned
Flash and is how I am still learning it.
Final words: Without the internet as a source for Flash
knowledge I
think, I'd still be using Tweenings...

How are you guys powering your laptops in your cars ???

Hi guys,
Although I have been using computers since the first pc appeared, I only recently decided to get a laptop. I got a Lenovo B560 and have been absolutely delighted with it.
However, I am perplexed at the fact that there does not seem to be any easy options for using the laptop in the car on long trips etc ? I do not see any type of 12 volt adapter listed in the accessories ?? A google search shows a few "generic" brand power converters but I have always been leary of using anything but oem type equipment.
Anyway, how are you guys powering your machines while mobile ??
Thanks,
Bill

Your tip size is 2.5mm x 5.5mm, 19volts, and your current adapter is 90watts, right?
Your tip size is the same as what is in the y450, y460, y550p, y550, y560, and the y730.
The y730 is listed under the adapter listed above as taking the 4R 4319 tip, which is the same size as yours.
The tip, Pt. # 46 4319 is listed as an optional tip for the ultraslim adapter, Pt. #4IN8460, that tip has to be ordered separately from the adapter, it doesn't come with it.
Scroll to the bottom of the link for the adapter and you'll see the listing for the 19 volt tip, pt. #4R 4319.
All this is assuming that you have integrated graphics.

Where do you store your videos?

My 80 GB iPod has more space than my computer does, and after buying several seasons worth of TV shows, I've run out of room on my computer, but still have space on the iPod. Where do you store all of these video files? I don't have a DVD burner (just a player), so I can't burn them onto DVDs.

Mist people store their video in the cloud.

Where to store your videos (2014): iPhoto vs iTunes vs iMovie?

I used to store all my home videos in iPhoto, because I think It's better to save videos and pictures together in the same event.
But now that we have a tab in iTunes for 'home videos' and we also have 'theater' tab in iMovie.... Where do you think is better to save your home videos?
The idea is to watch them later in AppleTV, iPads, etc.
Thank you!

Open iPhoto and iMovie. Find the video is iPhoto and control click to get the contextual menu. There is an option to locate in Finder. Click on that and a Finder window opens with the video file highlighted. Drag that file to iMovie to import. After importing you can delete the one in iPhoto to avoid duplication.
As for events, iMovie automatically lists them by day. By default a event is a day but you can change it anyway you prefer.

Why Store Your Videos In iPhoto, When You Have iMovie?

Is there any reason for storing/importing your digital camera movies into iPhoto, when you use iMovie? The only reason I can see is, it's quicker and easier to import them into iPhoto, along with your photos. But really, it doesn't make much sense them being in iPhoto, mainly because iPhoto can't play video.

I will simply add that the preference to use iMovie or iPhoto probably has a lot to do with how you shot videos and what you do with them.
For me, I have a lot of old Analog 8mm/Hi8 and then Digital8 tapes I have been importing and editing with iMovie for yeas now. I also now use a Flip MinoHD video recorder which works very nicely with iMovie. In all cases, I often do some bits of editing and iMovie is a natural choice for that and also is now a gosh dang swell cataloging application for all your videos.
That said, many people don't use a camcorder, only take occasional movie clips with their point & shoot digital camera (many of which make pretty good video these days) and never do any editing. So for those people, iPhoto is a natural choice to store the small handful of short clips they take in any given year that are never edited and occasionally emailed to relatives as is. iMovie is overkill for them and they don't need a separate app to store their 5 or 8 clips they took over the past year, 80% of them on that one vacation in August.

Hey you guys need your advice

my mom is convinced that i should get an ipod nano instead of the ipod video. but i want a ipod video. so i was wondering do some of u guys know any where to buy well not cheap but inexpensive ipod videos.

the only place that i have found is on the itunes music store for $1.99. If thats to much well then you can spend $30 for quicktime pro and you are able to save quicktimes videos with it for free and then convert them to your ipod for playback. You can also do a search on these boards with "music video" and there was a few links offered where you can download music videos with quicktime for free. Im sure some peopel will say to use some software but the video from p2p is awful quality.

How do you guys use your Moshi Clearguard? (or any other KB cover)

For those of you use the Moshi Clearguard, or any other keyboard cover, do you guys use the cover all the time or only when you feel that your hands are a little dirty? Also, do you keep it on when the lid is closed? Thanks!

i just leave mine on there and forget about it. I got a clear one and cant even tell that its on there. hope this helps

Curious how you all organize your videos/music/pictures

I am curious to know: How do you all organize/keep/archive (1) the videos you have created, (2) your music in iTunes, (3) your photos in iPhoto?
Do you keep each individual video on a separate CD or DVD? Or all in one ex. hard drive? Or?
~L

I keep my iTunes Library on my iMac's drive, with a backup copied to another external drive.
My iPhoto Libraries (I have 12 right now) are on an external drive, with backup on another external drive, not the same one that backs up my iTunes.
For my iPhoto Libraries, I number manually all the photos in each 'Family Photos' album for each year, aftr I have finished putting them in chronologic order. I do this myself because I want the photos to sort the way I placed them. I burn those photos to DVDs from Finder so I can save those discs as backups of all my photos. If my drives fail, or if my family ever needs to print some of these photos, I have the photos in the order they would be in if they were printed and put into an album chronologically. There are other photos in my iPhoto Libraries that are either similar, not great shots or some that I don't necessarily want in my Family albums. I do not need to save them for posterity and if they were lost or forgotten it would not matter to my kids and grandkids.
I am not yet using iMovie 9 a lot so I don't have more than a couple of small movies there.
I use iMovie 6 and have my in-progress movies on the external drive that has my iPhoto Libraries. I have copies of all those movies on another external drive and I try to update that whenever I do any extensive editing of my iMovies.
After I have finished editing an iMovie, I export it back to miniDV tapes using my camcorder. Apparently exporting back to camcorder is not a feature of iMovie 8 or 9.
I then put my iMovie(s) into iDVD projects, burn 5 DVD disks from each project (one for us, one for each kid, one extra and one for secure saving) and save each project as a disc image file. After checking that the DVD has burned correctly and that the iMovie does not need to be further edited, and after the edited iMovie has been exported back to tape, I then delete the iDVD project and the iMovie used in that project.
I put one DVD copy of each iDVD project in our safe-deposit box.
I keep all the disk image files on two separate external drives. I even went back to the DVD discs that I had made before iDVD had the option to create disk image files and created disk image files from the discs. I can now reburn any of my projects whenever I need another copy. Even though I have several copies of each project, DVD discs can crack, melt, scratch and break, so I wanted to be sure I could always have another copy.
I am somewhat concerned that newer technology will produce some sort of image/video-storage device and all my DVDs will need to be converted to that format, but I figure that will be the job of my children and/or grandchildren. At least I will have all our old photos and videos preserved in a digital format.
I am almost finished with my project of putting all our photos/videos on DVDs for the years 1890-2010. I have completed 1974-2009 except for the last two months of 2009. I am working on the 'early years' and when finished with that, I will be up to date. At that point, hopefully in the next two or three months, I am going to learn iMovie 9 and FCE and purchase a new HD camcorder and a better still camera, so maybe my organization plan will change a bit for movie clips.

How can you tell if your video/graphics card is failing?

I have been playing World of Warcraft for over 7 months now (insert geek jokes here), and I have never experienced the problems that I have been experiencing with WoW this weekend.
I was hoping that it was just a connection/internet issue with WoW, but when i play on my laptop (and older Powerbook G4), screen loads aren't slow like they are on my Intel iMac.
Yesterday and today have been horrible. I'll get disconnected at least 4-5 times (which NEVER happens) and when I am finally logged into my account for game play, it's horrible lag. And even then, it takes a while for the background or other characters to load.
I'm worried that it's my video/graphics card and might be failing. How would I know if this was the case?
I am still hoping it's just a connectivity issue and has nothing to do with my card. But I don't know at this point.
I'm very frustrated.
Any help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Suzanne

Wow, ok, sounds like you are on the exact same path that I'm on. I'm a WOW player also, have had my iMac since 2008 (and play wow alot, raiding, etc) and recently it fried it's graphics card. I just replied to your thread about HDDs... so please see that response.
I'm convinced it's a heat issue and I have a feeling the latest OSX update may have changed something about the fan speed that caused extra heat to build up. Just a theory.
Anyway, your options are very limited for "fixing" a screwed up graphics card. Hopefully you have AppleCare, otherwise you're looking at ~$500 to fix this.
I'm not going to bother. Just bought a new monitor and graphics card for my 4y.o. Windows machine and will be using that from now on. I'll miss the Apple display and the operating system, but the hardware doesn't make me happy at all.
Good luck!

HT1420 so where do you actually authorise your account on itunes ? cant find the option

how to authorise your account for device on itunes ?

you don't need to do it on an iOS device like an iPhone or iPad.
When you use windows, go to the menu bar, click 'store' and then there should be an option to authorise the computer.
NB: if you don't see the menu bar in windows, click the black/white square button on the top left of your screen. You can then choose 'show menu bar'
In Mac, the menu bar is always at the top and the steps are pretty much the same. Select 'store' and 'authorise computer'
For detailed steps: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Good luck
