National Treasure 2

Back to upcoming theatrical releases, National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets is here in under 2 months.

The sequel looks to be a more than worthy addition to the series, but don't take my word for it, check out the trailer for yourself.

NEXT WEEK BABY! I CAN'T WAIT!

Panasonic P2

That's right, this is the camera that I drool over almost daily, the Panasonic AG-HVX200. My videography abilities will soar to new heights when I pony up for this baby. Not only does it record in True High-Def (1080p), it does so onto tapeless media so that there is never any capturing or dropped frames. It sports multiple frame rates and a host of other features that will make every production, a quality production.

Adobe CS3 Production Premium

If you are looking to produce videos, be they professional endeavors or just for fun, the ultimate software package in video just updated...Adobe CS3 Production Studio Premium is an exciting new release that I can't wait to add to my workstation. With tons of new features, unmatched integration, and an intuitive user-interface, this is bound to make you more productive and working at a higher quality level.
