The fourth and last podcast from the fxguide suite in Las Vegas. Yesterday in our podcast we mentioned that Ron Brinkman had left Apple. Today we have exclusive interviews with both Bill Collis from the Foundry and with Ron Brinkman about Ron advising the Foundry on Nuke. Also our final roundtable discussion from NAB 2007.

We wrap up day four of our NAB coverage - a roundtable with guests Tahl Niran and Paul Rosckes. Discussion includes Shake, After Effects, monitors, Nuke, Tiffen Filters, c>me, Stonegate, Sapphire... and much more.

Before we depart Vegas, a personal shout out to our friends who weren't at NAB this year -- Martin Helie (aka the Mayor of Discreet) and Peter Webb in Melbourne. NAB isn't the same without you guys....

AMD - who gave away a Ferrari Laptop at Autodesk User Group - had this on their booth




An LED light system that was controllable to put moving light passes on car shots. From a company called Element Labs. (UPDATE: I spoke with a friend of mine who is in lighting and she said that you can even feed video to the multi color LEDs in the system - to put cloud footage into them for example.)








We have talked alot about cameras in RED conversations... the S-Two booth had 3 on display.
