After commencing Hi Def video production in 2009, the FPC Video production department will now be able to complete the Hi Def media equation, by burning and duplicating BluRay media discs. These BluRay discs will hold up to 25 gigs of media, which is more than FIVE times the amount of media on a standard DVD. Going forward, all productions will be mastered in both Standard Definition (for DVD) and also in Hi Definition (For BluRay). For those members who own a BluRay player, you will already know the difference. And currently, the cost of owning a BluRay player is lower than ever! Brand names can be purchased for a little as $100 at all the major consumer electronics stores…so the time to get yours is NOW!
Our first BluRay production is the Key West Poker Run 2011. We are now sending out a Directors Cut version to participants …two hours in length, which is NOT the completed version. The full length feature production will be mastered and released in late January.
Please contact the FPC office by phone 954-545-1414, or email your preference to Laura at [email protected].
Member Video Contest for 2012: We are working on a program for 2012 that will involve the use of Gopro HD Video cameras. This program will invite members to use their own personal Gopro cameras to furnish video footage from their own boat and crew. The footage will be edited into the finished Souvenir event videos…and the best clips will be entered into contests, with great prizes! We will keep you posted on this exciting contest!
