The Newport High School Follies, an all school variety show for the Bellevue Washington High School took place last weekend and I had the terrific opportunity of taping the Tech Night on Wednesday March 3rd in HDV. I was trying out the new HD editing options in the Avid and learned a lot about what it can and can’t do. Fortunately I was able to put together a 7 minute highlight sampler from that footage. Here it is:

That was just a run through that night. The real plan was to tape an actual performance night. So on Friday March 5th, I brought the cameras, mics and tripod back and taped the actual performance. It was so much better. The acts had high energy and the lights and sound flowed so much smoother. The video turned out great. I am making DVD’s available to the school as soon as I can get them duplicated.
Meanwhile the tech highlight is posted on You Tube and on SunnyWonderMedia.com and on the Sunny Wonder Media Facebook Fan Page. I will post a much improved highlight with portions of every act within the next few days.
