October Workshop 08

I agree with the VMWorkshop comment about negataivity. I enjoyed this video, it looked as though it was fun to make and full marks for the guy who was brave enough to go in front of the camera (s)!
I usually hide behind my camcorder. If I lived closer to Chico I'd definitely go to one of the Videomaker workshops. As you say, it's all about meeting people and learning - not for guys who already know it all.

Despite the Video quality, I found this video Pretty funny, especially at the end, Good Job :)

I am a bit surprised by the negativity of these posts. Generally we find the video community to be very supportive of beginners and first time Videomakers.

The purpose of the video production workshop is not to make a brilliant perfectly polished video. But to teach the fundamentals of videography to beginners. Of course there's going to be some mistakes, but allowing them to make those mistakes, then teaching how to avoid them in the future is the process we're after, not a polished video.

A few things:
Yeah, videos done by students, wannabes, rookies. But students, wannabes and rookies with the expert guidance and tutelage of Videomaker. Not a good reflection on Videomaker.
I know now not to refer anyone to a Videomaker Workshop. I get asked frequently and I have wondered if it was any good or just cheesy. These student videos answer that question.
A couple more of these and I am gong to revoke my subscription.

that was terrible

I don.t want to sound like one of those stupid youtube hate commenters but the people at vide maker seem like real geeks.  Love the mag though!

The magaizine is good, but i have to say, the videos are BAD!

WTF
