FilmTVsound website upgraded

On January 25, 2018 -- we launched a new version of this site, operating from a newer software platform. The content and layout are pretty much the same; but the machinery under the hood that makes it all work has all been updated.

We are calling attention to this upgrade in the event that a few of you who recently registered with us during the final phases of this upgrade (Deember to mid-January) might possibly encounter an issue when logging in. Should that happen, please email us as soon as possible and we will get it taken care of.

Now – why did we upgrade the site? Because we wanted to provide you with:

  • A better mobile experience. The whole website now reformats much cleaner on smartphones and tablets, meaning you can access FilmTVsound from anywhere!
  • Better site performance. Pages load faster, and animations look slicker.
  • Better site security. With all the hackings in the news we made your information security our top priority and went “under the hood” to make sure everything from the ground up is more secure.

As anyone in the industry will tell you: maintain your gear and keep it current. Websites about audio gear are no different.

As always, we welcome your feedback and want to make sure your FilmTVsound experience is as seamless and pleasant as possible. Thanks again for bearing with us, and we’ll see you on the Forums!

Regards,

The FilmTVsound Team

Garage Sale (used shotgun mics)

bp4071LEvery now and then, we go through our shelves of audio gear and find some gems that are too useful to just be taking up storage space. I have gotten older; and admit that these days, I rarely go out on commercials or major shoots. A little bit of cable network stuff just to stay in practice, but the mainstay of my income is from teaching and consulting. So I no longer need to maintain an excessive inventory of professional toys. (And if I do need something extra that I don't own, I can borrow it or rent it.)

On the same token, I realize that most of our readers are just getting started and have to watch their budget. So check out these goodies that EQE Media & Consulting Group is offering for sale....
