HardDrive Camcorder
In: Geek Finds
20 Nov 2006Hmm. Wondering about whether it would be productive to have a video camcorder inhouse for shooting various gigs around the ZCoB? Could be used for facilitator training, huddles, staff meetings, events, classes… Maybe. Most likely scenario would be taking it to a video format like a podcast rather than studio quality. Questions to answer: is there a potential demand, who would provide time doing the shooting, who would do the studio/editing work, what would be the best equipmnet for this purpose? Last first…
HD Camcorder looks like the way to go. MPEG-2. 7 hours of room at highest quality. No tapes, no mess.

Sony DCR-S100 or for future proofing go HD with the Sony HDR-SR1 AVCHD

This is two complementary ideas meeting. I’ve been thinking of videoing my tastings and releasing them as mpegs onto arborupdate.com or releasing them as podcasts. I would have a use for it. And I’ll bet every five people who watch would generate one or two more guaranteed spots at a future tasting. The end of the podcast could even have future tastings and contact information.

I think this would be an incredible tool for recording roleplays of the top service situations that Service Central gets questions about: pricing complaints, juggling the phones when you have guests in front of you, a ZXI tutorial…

This could really expand our options for improving website. “Notes from your local cheesemaker” could show an actual demonstration of cheesemaking. M&G has been discussing the idea of buying a nice digital camera and taking on more of the photography we outsource to freelancers. We could add video-editing to that part of next year’s ZAP as well.
