NYLUG Presents: Ira Hyman on Creating a Free Infrastructure for Multimedia & Internet TV Production
Channel: NYLUG
Date: 2012-10-22

Ever have an idea for a TV show, a stage production, or a movie script? How do you get everyone on the same page? Collaboration is a very hot issue right now, and with good reason. Through the use of several cross-platform and web based applications, you can share documents, scripts, and whiteboards, while using VOIP, IM and chat all at the same time. These tools can be used for many other purposes as well, including workplace tasks. They are well suited for small offices and startup companies. The total software cost of this infrastructure is a whopping ZERO! The preferred OS is Linux of course, and all of the applications required are Open Source, but if you are running Windows you can still get on the same page. You can use all open source applications for video editing and graphics production, even subtitling.
