Re: OT converting VHS to DVD live loop performance

["Jim Goodin" <jimgoodinmusic@gmail.com>]

Rick for short-term and least outlay I would think a service such as these guys http://yourmemoriesremembered.com/?gclid=CKDk78Tw7I8CFQibggodf0l2Kg
, would be the most affordable.  They came up in my Gmail as gmail will do  when you open a specific email, kind of a built in promo search.  Anyhow looks like $15 for 30 min vhs to DVD.

I've used sim outfits here in NY.  I used to work with analog tape all the time  and though you could set up and get hardware/sw going from VHS deck to computer I would still think a service would save you least $$/sweat.

Hope Ohio drum convention/siminar for all those Buddy Rich traditional  types was good, hope you shocked their world.

I did a 30 minute solo Lime Green found sound live looping performance
for our local television station a few years ago that
was nominated for a National Cable Access Awards for
best video (we lost but we were pretty weird compared to the
competition).   It was a really professional three camera shoot done
in real time, though it looks far more produced than that and I'm really
proud of it.

I really want to convert it to digital and be able to:

1) Make hi resolution DVDs as a promotional product for my touring  and

2)  Make lo resolution copies for streaming on my website and also at
      YouTube.com.


I don't know the first thing about making this conversion.

Can anyone on this list advice me what I need to either purchase to do so
and/or
hip me to the least expensive way of making both of these conversions?

Thanks,

Rick Walker
