Jaimoe Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 porn addicts are people too, jaimoe. feel free to join our facebook group, but don't let your kids anywhere near the computer once you've signed oni would speculate that HD wouldn't do the majority of local newscasters any favours anywayand i think you mean CKWS, jaimoe. HD wouldn't particularly help a radio stationAll true Dave. I'm on night shifts so forgive my blurring of bad Kingston radio with cheap Kingston TV. However, CKWS hadn't really changed much in 40 years, which is good and bad (their 60-minute 6pm local newscast is idiotic though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Porn in HD is pretty liquidic, and not pretty. No one needs to see Arby's beef that clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 HD is a career killer for sure, especially for pre-op hosts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Do you think a poor station such as CKLC in Kingston will switch to HD? Not bloody likely. It can literally cost millions, but "channels in a box" such as Space and Bravo can switch to HD and will in the near future simply because they don't have to build HD control rooms (Citytv invested over two million to build just one control room - and they have two more, but not HD).HD production isn't that crazy. people are doing it on the internet all the time.

However, a real HD hand-held video camera costs from 35 to 50Gs. A control room runs into the millions. So, would you prefer news shot gonzo by your neighbour?

bouche Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 So, would you prefer news shot gonzo by your neighbour? Are you saying that CKWS people don't have neighbours? And that they live on a different planet where only news people live, and everything is newsworthy? That the only network and equipment available is accessible to them, and no one is qualified to produce anything unless they work for Rogers or some other big company?Yes?well, I disagree.

Jaimoe Posted January 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Sure, people shoot their own footage all the time. Some news departments such as CNN encourage it. I wish some of those sick fucks that shot footage of a dying Jane Creba would turn in their footage so they could help solve the case. Editing, however, is a skill. If you didn't have editors and a vision or mandate, news would resemble one messy and tedious wedding video. That being said, talent is talent and I like it when individuals think outside the box to create something fresh. But TV production isn't easy, nor is telling stories that are informative and occassionally entertain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
