Hot Air

I’ve added a new link to my Blogroll: “Hot Air”. It’s a new web site by Michelle Malkin. I invite you to take a look at her new site. Not so much from the political perspective, but the technologic one. She emailed to Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit about how she does it.

The newscast is filmed in my basement with a Sony HVR-A1U Digital HDV Handycam and edited with Avid Xpress DV and Adobe After Effects. There's a green screen behind me. Bryan does all the wizardry. We're having fun and it is truly amazing how all this fairly inexpensive software and hardware is revolutionizing broadcast media. We're living the Army of Davids dream. (Can't count how many times someone has written and said "when are you going to have your own TV show?" Now, I don't need to wait!)

I’m rather weirded out about how easy the technology is getting for this sort of thing. Take a look at one of her videos and see what you think. I think it's pretty slick.
