  • Tired of waiting

    You've got a great thing going with this, just stick with it. The only reason I'm giving you three stars is becuase you've been so inconsistent.

  • Great podcast (& excellent fair use example)

    This series is great for someone like me who is completely new to video/audio production. The history of why things are the way they are really makes it easier to remember, and little humor certainly adds some fun to the presentation of technical details (for example, I love the bovine part in episode 005). And, as a copyright lawyer, I can say Craig got the details on fair use (end of episode 004) exactly right.

  • Keep them coming

    I'm really enjoying your cast. It's great to get all history on all of these crazy and often confusing details of DV and film. I'd like to see something on all of the different formats around the world.

  • One of my two favorite podcasts...

    This is a fabulous podcast and the information given is core to understanding the principles which underlay video production and related technology. This is one of my two favorite podcasts and this podcast, as well as the Multimedia 101 podcast from CreativeCOW, taught me many great principles that I have often wondered about. Man, you gotta love podcasting and the ones who do it right. Thanks, videogrunt!

  • Big return on a small investment.

    Absolutely fantastic job presenting material in a concise yet but not simplistic fashion. I just stumbled onto this and I can't be happier. Knowledge is power, and I suddenly gained 20 pounds of muscle.
