Zune Walkthrough

You are brave people, giving Laura such an expensive and delicate piece of equipment.

She broke the color on the camera for a while there..

We live on the edge

I like to refer to it as artistic vision!

This was a great segment, Duncan.  I liked some of the camera shots of Laura filming.  That camera looked a little bulky.  What was Laura's logic for switching between desaturated (b&w) and color shots?  Never use in camera effects!  All that is done in the editing process.

Anyway, How does the Zune compare to the iPod in size?  I haven't really looked into the Zune because it doesn't do any of the cool things we were promised it could do just yet.  Can you manage media through an established software or do you have to install Zune software?  Does it work like a portable hard drive?  Will it eventually sync to the Xbox 360 and allow us to transfer files?  There seems to be an endless list of things the Zune just can't do yet.  If I get one, it will be used as a portable hard drive and media player.  I'm looking for something I can sync to my 360 and Mac...somehow I doubt the Zune will ever live up to our demands.

all of the effects were done in post. I dont use in camera effects.

 

Hehehe.  Actually, that's what I thought...but I figured I'd get a rise out of somebody there if I threw in an accusation.  Sorry, Laura.  No harm intended.  You’re totally awesome.

What was the motivation for desaturation to color shots in that segment anyway?

Arztek, there are some great shots here, if you want to see the two players side-by-side.

Thanks.  It is indeed larger than the iPod, but only a little.  I'll wait until it slims down a little before I purchase one...or maybe I'll just buy a new iPod.
