Ron Fredericks writes: Blue Cube Toastmasters Club recently held an open house to attract new members: Blue Cube Makes a Movie. The agenda for the open house was to make a movie. I directed, produced, and published this movie as a demonstration of what Blue Cube Toastmasters Club is all about.

Watch this movie to:

• Learn about Toastmasters International,
• Demonstrate how Toastmasters’ self-help public speech and leadership training works, and
• Show potential future guests and experienced Toastmasters what makes Blue Cube unique as a club worth visiting/joining.

Background Notes

LectureMaker hosts the Blue Cube Toastmasters Club in its conference room. LectureMaker owns a professional video studio down the hall from its conference room, so it was only a matter of time before the club members got together to make a club movie.

Ron Fredericks writes:

LectureMaker’s video studio captures audio with highest quality. Each audio source is recorded on separate tracks because audio is so important to a high quality video or podcast. I hope this overview helps my clients and prospects see just how serious I am in recording the very best audio for my live event video capture projects as well as my in-studio projects.

For hardware, I designed my audio capture platform around a PreSonus StudioLive 16.4.2 analog plus digital 16-track recording system that includes mic pre-amps, dynamic audio correction, and both analog and digital mixing. For software, I use Adobe Audition 3 (AA3) for multitrack capture, recording, and final post production mixes.

Here is a photo of LectureMaker’s studio setup:

Ron Fredericks writes: Blue Cube Toastmasters Club is having a very special open house. Let’s make a movie! The event is also a membership drive to attract guests and experienced Toastmasters to consider joining Blue Cube Toastmasters for its special relationship with LectureMaker’s video studio. Blue Cube club members can use up to one hour of LectureMaker’s video studio time (at LectureMaker’s desecration) to capture, produce, and publish video to the Internet and DVD. As a demonstration we plan to make a Toastmaster movie during this open house event – and you’re invited.

LectureMaker has donated several hours of video studio time to Blue Cube Toastmasters club in its ongoing support and hosting of the club meeting in LectureMaker’s conference room.

Discussion

If a picture tells a thousand words, imagine what video can do at 30 picture frames per second. In fact, we don’t have to imagine… online video published around events, news, and business has sky rocketed. See this report for more details.

Now Blue Cube club wants to make a movie. Sign up to become a Blue Cube Toastmaster and join in the fun during our open house event too.

BP is trying to salvage the leaking Deepwater Horizon oil well, not plug it.  I believe it’s possible to stop the leak very quickly, if we, not BP, choose to kill the well.

More Info

Over and over we have heard from BP that the long-term objective is to drill relief wells to reduce the pressure.  This is so they can go back in and start harvesting the fruits of their $600 million investment.

On April 20th the blowout occurred at 5,000 feet and the emergency relief valve, rated at 450 tons of pressure, failed.

Remember ‘Top Hat’?  In late May, a complex system of equipment was assembled on the floor of the Gulf with pipes from a surface ship to pump heavy mud down on the leaking wellhead. Pumping from the surface requires some of the most powerful pumps in the world.  They didn’t have enough mud.  Top Hat failed.  So has every other effort.

Most everyone in media, industry, government, and the scientific community has bought the BP point of view.  But there’s a much easier solution: kill the well. Drop something on the wellhead that weighs more than the 450-tons.  A large empty oil tanker ship might do.
