An interview with Sam Baird of Whitehill Media about the IPTV World Forum and how his company is doing.

An Interview from the IPTV World Forum with BCS Account Manager Chrissie Walker giving her view on the days events with their client Broadband Forum.

This is an edit which is an package for SeaChange, another one BCS' clients. It follows a similar principle to the Broadband Forum one below.

On Wednesday 25th March, Tom Pearson, Jason Bickers and I went down to London Olympia exhibition centre where the IPTV World Forum was taking place. This was to film some promotional videos of some of BCS's clients and this is the first of them, Broadband Forum.

All 3 of us filmed and recorded sound on the day but this time I have the job as editor as I live in Nottingham and can easily show Brian (Managing Director of BCS) different versions of the film while the other two are home for Easter.

The film is going to be sent to the client to be used how they like to advertise themselves, but also on the BCS website.

Last Thursday (12th March) we had a lecture on film titles. I hadn't previously thought much into the titles for my film, so this helped open my eyes a little as to what I can do to make my film look more authentic.

Now as a video dairy style operated by someone who supposedly doesn't know how to work a camera my advice was to keep titles as basic as possible. This even meant writing titles on using the camera (if it had that function).

My film is in a similar style to The Blair Witch Project, so for me to make titles and edit to suit that kind of seemingly uncontrolled style, it will benefit the look and feel of my film.

Unfortunately my trial copy of Photoshop has expired (again) so I cant show a still of what I mean and I've looked on Google and its hard to find a still of what I mean on their too, so you'll just have to use your imagination :P

This is a collection of the best of the production stills taken during the shoot on Monday 23rd February. They are displayed here in reverse order.

Here is the first draft edit of the required 6 minute version. I don't think its as good as the 14 minute version (which I will be uploading soon) but nevertheless it's still fine. I will be continuing to edit this to meet my standards over the next week.
