PAL-Studios Serendipity

in #pal-studios6 years ago

So, I have a camera, mic, lights, computer, desk, editing program, and just about everything else I need to get PAL-studios going except a space and a TV for a back set. I've been a little dead set on a space a town over that's got high walls and such, but it turns out the land lord isn't my favorite human. He's a pretty tough business man to deal with and he wants me to sign a year long lease for double what his sales guy initially offered to me. I'm not thrilled...

So, while looking at insurance (because he requires that) I visit my insurance agent for the last few years and it turns out he owns the building, has some extra space, doesn't need a long term contract, and will charge me $200 less and include internet for me. He's also a really nice guy.

There are a bunch of ladies that work next door that were loud enough and chatty enough that it came through the studio space, but at least for now I'm not that worried because I'll likely just start by filming only after 5pm when they've all left the building. The space is about 20 min from my current house and a 2 min walk from my last home, which part of me still thinks of as home.

So, I'm waiting on that paperwork, but I think I should have a lease done this week, get a TV installed next week, and start shooting videos by mid February. If it takes off, I love it, and I can find more people to shoot there then things will likely pick up. I imagine starting just with my talking head videos, but with a TV set as the background we could just change the image and KAPOW brand new show.

Equipment

For anyone that cares here's some of what I've got so far-

SONY FDR AX100 4k camera
64gb sd card
i7 computer withe Nividia TI 1080 graphics card, additional RAM
Adobe Premiere Elements
Adobe Photoshop Elements
2 500W LED lights
a desk from Ikea
2 stools from Ikea

Still on my list are a lease, a 70" TV, and a wall mount for it.

Whole thing is probably going to be around 7-8k to start, and $6k for the year.

Space

The room is probably 24 x 12 with 10' high ceilings. It's a little echo-y and the lights hums when they are on. We'll see what I need to do to make it suitable. I'm confidant it'll be a good place to work especially since it's only a few hundred bucks and helps me get my sea legs under me.

Help I'm looking for

@soundwavesphoton made me a truly dope intro to Minnow Mayor Town Hall. I'm looking to get a 30 second graphic that would be really cool. I'm eventually going to model my show off of the Daily Show or Corbert Report (show format not their politics). I think it needs a cool as intro. I'm not sure what that would be. It probably has to flash the words Peace, Abundance, and Liberty up there, maybe show some harm that government causes through recent news clips, flash up some crypto headlines, and then put up an as of yet unmade logo.

If you got skills and wanna make this come message me in Discord.

This is a good setup @aggroed. Wish i ciuld be of help, see you next time

Recuerdo cuando comencé a trabajar en Global tv un canal de tv acá en el Zulia Venezuela... El dueño del canal, Guido Briceño, me comentó que comenzó en un rincón en su casa con solo 1 cámara... Tengo otros conocidos que comenzaron en lugares alquilados y equipos alquilados, Pero ellos tuvieron 1 cosa en común, soñaron para luego hacerlo realidad.

Otra cosa.. El editos de video de adobe es excelente. Otro editor de video igualmente increible es el Edius, es un editor de video profesional.

waw! I have booked for the first release of the film.

posstingan nice, i've upvote you, do not forget my upvote @azhariari

Wow, good things happening to you...by the way, which crypto coin are you going to invest in these $200 ? :)

Ladies have this legendary quality of talking tirelessly and you know what, it's the same everywhere...women talk connecting world! :)

Regarding logo, you can go for #steemgigs. Great post @aggroed and best of luck!

Nice posting

This is great. Congratulations on this. You already got a good number of equipments. I hope you find all the human skills you need.

Best wishes

this is great investing sir and thanks for sharing this, this is something new to me.

Congrats! Anything I can do to support the non-mainstream media, count me in. Peace, abundance and liberty.

Where’s your location??

if your plan is really very mature, we will wait for the wow work from your studio, regards to know from me, hope everything you planned will run smoothly ...

This is a great project,nice one,keep moving higher

You are really working hard..keep it up. .hard work pays

You might want to take a look at lights from Aputure if the humming is affecting your video-recording.

@aggroed, luck in your project, already has almost all the implements except the television that you want to have, in the background, I have a question
my question is:
Do you already have the camera and the place where you are going to record your program or video?
What is your program about?
What topics will you talk about?
I'm a little curious.

Dude!!! This is AWESOME!!!! I can't wait to see what you do with this. I'm not a professional video maker - not even remotely, but I did create the intros for my shows, so let me know if you want help with it, and I'll jump in with both feet. As for "start by filming only after 5pm when they've all left the building." .... that's only 11pm my time... I can actually participate :D
love d

Congratulations! You're a man of action for sure! Good decision going with the peacefully abundant landlord... I guess he can be considered a pal!

Congrats on getting this so far already... unfortunately I have absolutely no relevant skills to offer at this moment but I’m always around so if I can help out I’d be happy to.

Whew! You almost lost me with:
"going to model my show off of the Daily Show or Corbert Report (show format not their politics)" 😉
I've just recently been reading your posts. I appreciate how much you're doing to help out the newbies. I'm eagerly expecting great things from PAL Studios!

Awesome work mate best of luck for the rest of it.

This is incredible. I don't have the skills you need, but if you ever need something storytelling related, I will be the first to jump. :)

Congratulations!

Great news about the space! Sometimes the best deals are the ones you find by accident. Worked for me in reverse once. My friends and I were going to rent a restaurant from a pizza shop owner across the street that he had just bought. When he found out how cheap our insurance was going to be (even with a liquor license), he pulled the building and opened his owner full fledged Italian restaurant. Oh well.

I can only mengresteem .., no comments

Wow this is a good start and i wish u success in this journey
