There is a great interview over at FreshDV with Josh Oakhurst, an Indie filmmaker and also senior editor at SportsHD. He talks about his beginning with VTR-to-VTR in high school, his move to a Casablanca, and his college move to an iMac, Final Cut, and a Canon GL-1.
He talks about his opinions on camcorders, HD formats, and Canon camcorders, among other things. Definitely a must read for anyone interested in digital videomaking, whether amateur or veteran.
