Today's episode of the Digital Convergence podcast finds me face-to-face with Chris Fenwick who is working on location for a huge conference. We talk about ergonomics.

Autodesk's Marc-André Ferguson joins Chris Fenwick, planetMitch and I today on the Digital Convergence Podcast to talk about Smoke 2013.

Chris Fenwick delves deep into the mind and vision of Po Chan - a remarkable visual story teller and artist. Po Chan wrote and directed The Ticket and The Last Three Minutes - both films that were shot by Shane Hurlbut of Hurlbut Visuals.

Creativity on a budget is the theme of this week's episode of the Digital Convergence podcast. We talk about two low budget films that prove to be a good antidote to the toxins of stratospherically high priced gear and software that have unfortunately dominated our conversations on this podcast for a while.

This week show was recorded in the midst of what is probably one of the best NAB shows on record. Chris Fenwick, planetMitch, and I only scratch the surface in talking about all the exciting announcements coming out of NAB 2012.

The buzz is building for NAB. What is Canon going to announce? Wait, not one, but two cameras? planetMitch, Chris Fenwick, and special guest Paul Antico, all chat with me about we might expect from next week's NAB show in Las Vegas.

Chris Fenwick, planetMitch and I talk about the latest announcement from Sony: the new NEX FS700.

planetMitch calls in from LA where he is working with Barry Andersson to produce a short movie with their brand new Canon EOS 5D Mark III's.

The Digital Convergence panel launches into a discussion on the sunsetting of 16mm movie cameras in film school as reported to us by a listener of the podcast. planetMitch reports on the latest Kickstarter sensation: the Digital Bolex 2K Raw video camera. Is this camera too good to be true?

With an APB out on Chris Fenwick (we think he's holed up in a KOA Campy Cabin in the mountains), planetMitch (planet5D.com), and Gabe Cheifetz (CrumplePop.com) and I take on the latest news and happenings in the world of video and photography.

Episode 63 of the Digital Convergence podcast brings Chris Fenwick, planetMitch, Tony Reale (of NextWaveDV) and myself together in a lively discussion about learning the craft of filmmaking. Do you need to go to film school? Is a college degree necessary to make it in this business? What is the best way to learn? Does one size fit all when it comes to education?

All artist face it one time or another. We loath the work we do, wondering "Is it good enough?"
