maybe such a job should be bidded out to other vidiotographers as
well.  There have got to be people in the area that could do the same
job but ma=ybe at a cheaper cost.  You know, since there are no
traveling expenses with local subcontractors.

It would be nice if there were more video crews out there, but you
probably don't want a crew's first gig to be the championship game, do
you?

c'mon punto. you disapoint me sometimes.  First off, dont you have
more faith in your administrators that to think they would hire a
rookie to set up ONE STATIONARY CAMERA. and second whats so dificult
about setting up ONE STATIONARY CAMERA?????

I don't think anyone's ever done a live feed of an ultimate game
besides Rob, so anyone they hired would be doing their first live
ultimate game.
You do understand that there's more to it than rolling the camera into
place and turning it on, right?  Let me know if I'm going to fast
here, but there has to be someone operating the camera, no?  The guys
who do that in the NFL make bank (and their cameras cost thousands).

Whether the camera is moving up and down the sideline isn't relevant,
what is is tracking, zoom, focus, shot selection, etc.  That's what
you're paying for.  The equipment and the know-how to use it.

  Even if you're great at your job, there's going to be a bit of

learning curve in applying your general skills to a sport you've never
covered before, no?

seriously???? i'd say of observing, comentating and zooming in and out
on a stationary camera.......filming would be the easiest of all three
services.

Obviously, you're not a golfer.  Or a video tech...

Overall I definitely enjoyed the webcast. And I will echo that the
feed was great during the time I was watching (open and mixed) and was
actually pleasantly surprised by the resolution. This opinion isn't
really informed since we still haven't heard a cost (or even a ball
park) but I kind of like the idea of seeing it for free if you're a
UPA member and paying a small fee if you're not. Making it pay-per-
view might be risky and/or difficult since it would probably be pretty
difficult to get an accurate idea of how many people will order it by
the time you're writing the check to ultivillage.

Also I didn't mind the commentary... as people have already said, it
sounded like real people, and was kind of a nice break from the cookie
cutter BS you get from pro's... that said, I would certainly welcome
improvement/more professionalism from the commentators. Not a huge
deal to me tho.

My number 1 priority: being able to watch live again next year one way
or another (be it the same or ppv or other). And maybe other
tournaments before then?? Or more than just the finals next year? I
don't want to be greedy, but I'll watch whatever I can if I'm not
there playing!
