I was just running a test of the new software and studio with Green screen. Once I got done I figured /"Since I did a lot of work on it, why not post it?/" So I did.  The studio still needs a proper lighting system, but we really got to play with how the setup will work. Using the new Logitech 9000 video web cam (that records at 720x400), I tested out the video and audio (using the mic from the logitech, too.).  I then ported it over to the editing studio where I put in all the handy-dandy little graphics. Finally, I worked it all together for a finishing product.  Green screen needs a touch of work and like I said - lighting needs to be fixed. Oh yeah, a decent sound setup, too. Those will be coming shortly.  

One of the first reviews I did for the Geekazine channel was for the Fretlight guitar. However, during a computer crash, I thought I lost all of the video footage. Scrolling through a backup, I was able to recover an edited version of the file and subsequently post it. We are also going through some different intros. Let me know if you like this one. 

What a great day of content with the HP Tech Forum. We did some interviews on HP, CMS, Buzzcorps and other companies.Then it was the closing keynotes, which was one of the best. It featured: Mike Klayko: CEO - Brocade Rob Helm: Director of Research on Microsoft - Independent Analysis of MS Tech & Strategy. Tom Kilroy: VP - GM Intel Digital Enterprise Group Dr. Michael Kaku: Henry Semat Chair in Theoretical Physics, City University of New York.  We wrapped up the show and started blogging in the lobby. Tonight it's a "Thank you" party with the Beach Boys. Let's go surfin! Then it's back on a Plane and home. Thanks to everyone that helped out put out some great video content. 

Wrap up of Day 3 in the HP Technology Forum

Daily Wrap Up Video of Day 2 at the HP Tech Forum Expo.

What a time on Day one in the HP Tech Forum Expo at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. During the day we met tons of new people and discussed how new media is shaping traditional media. The Keynote was broadcast on SDRNews. We also have a lot of backchannel video, which will also be up there.  Tomorrow we scour the Expo floor with more great information and video. 

All this week, Geekazine will be with Andrew McCaskey from SDRNews and Kara Karsten to cover the HP Tech Forum Expo 2009 in Las Vegas. We will be covering and interviewing many different companies, as well as running the infamous "Backchannel" video. Andy will be bringing the serious video rig, so it's my job to make sure I have enough to cover the Backchannel experience. Add to that doing my regular Podcast on Tuesday.  In this episode, I show you 2 things. 1 - my new location for future videos and 2 - the gear I am taking with me to Las Vegas.
