Ten years ago I sat down with a VP of Cisco Systems and told him the future was video on the internet. At the time, he thought video would always be a minor, though growing element. He said “people don’t want to watch video on their PCs, they want to watch video on their TVs.”
I disagreed, and told him that in a few years it would be the #1 highest traffic driver on the net, and the #1 reason for people to upgrade their (Cisco) routing systems.
As I predicted, internet traffic is skyrocketing, propelled by video. 
“The majority of the …

The Library of Congress’s Copyright Office on Wednesday granted an exemption to film professors, allowing them to break the copy-protection codes on DVDs in order to create compilations of movie clips for their classes. Although such compilations are permitted under "fair use" interpretation of the copyright law, breaking the CSS security code is not. Studios had argued that the professors could use VHS tapes of the same films, but the professors countered that such tapes are often not available and those that are lack the quality of the DVDs. The ruling — along with others dealing with copyright law handed …

I was just thinking this morning about Apple, and their unspoken agreement with creative digital media professionals, and yes, there is one. Steve (Jobs) makes the offer to you of a free new Apple computer every year. Plus, he’ll pay you a little cash to take it.

Now that Apple supplies us with most of the software we use every day, they have more control over this planned obsolescence than ever before.

We have had many questions on how much to charge for various jobs. When I first got into the biz almost 20 years ago, the standard for industrial video production (training, marketing etc.) was $1000 per finished minute. So a 20 minute piece would be $20,000, including planning, shooting and editing.
Nowadays there is no standard. Being a creative pursuit, videomaking is done for free to millions of dollars. TV commercials are shot for free (by local cable companies), average about $300,000, and can run to millions. So asking "how much should I charge" depends on many …
