After a very successful workshop this summer in Mexico, Dan Duncan, one of the founders of BigfootHD and a contributer to this blog will be teaching another intensive workshop on High Definition Documentary and Television. Here is more information along with the fliers:
Aspiring videographers will have a new opportunity to learn high
definition documentary filming in the center of Afro-Brazilian
culture, Salvador, Bahia. A ten-day seminar in all aspects
of HD filming will be offered in the spring break of 2010, with studio classrooms in the heart of the famed Pelourinho
District of Salvador, Brazil’s third largest city. Led by Emmy
award-winning videographer and Brazil specialist Dan Duncan,
accompanied by David Yetman, host of the PBS documentary series The
Desert Speaks, a small group of students will undertake an intensive
course in all aspects of filming documentaries, including pre- and
post-production.
Duncan and Yetman found Bahia to be the ideal setting for the seminar,
which is an outreach program of the Oaxaca Summer Institute, sponsored
in part by the University of Arizona’s Southwest Center and Center for
Latin American Studies. Salvador teems with Afro-Brazilian
traditions, including the mysterious rituals of candomblé, the agile
and athletic arts of capoeira, the pulsing rhythms of samba, and the
incomparable Bahian cuisine. Students will have the option of
attending courses in Portuguese as part of the seminar. Instructors
are also fluent in Spanish, so students from other Latin American
countries will find the sessions equally valuable.

Here at BigfootHD we also offer video production services. Leveraging on 100% HD source content library, extended industry networks, and our footage editing and processing capabilities, we provide additional values to our customers and content providers with the following services:
• HD Editing
BigfootHD offers services for the customers who do not have capabilities for editing in HD. The customers can storyboard and/or rough cut a project in a low-resolution format. BigfootHD then “conforms” this cut into a full HD resolution project and delivers on a Blu-Ray HD DVD.
• Crew Connecting
BigfootHD offers a commission based networking service for independent HD cinematographers, producers and customers who need to assemble a crew to film footage not already available in our database. Industry partnerships and affiliate programs are also available to increase our footage offerings.
• Footage Processing
While suppliers may provide their footage already edited with metadata and cataloging information, many prefer to submit hours of unedited footage. In exchange for a percentage of commissioned sales or a fee, BigfootHD organizes and edits the raw footage provided by content suppliers. This model ensures the superior quality of our products, and the sustainable growth of our library and unique specialty catalogs with our efficient streamlined footage processing workflow.
