Thanks to several recent donations, the Soho Center now has high-quality uncompressed video-capable, digital non-linear video editing capability and greatly enhanced office, web, and graphics development capabilities.

EDIT FACILITY:
Our primary video editing system is an AVID Meridian 11.  We also have a separate, full-featured AVID Xpress and an AVID Media Composer 7.2.  Video input can come from BetaSP, D-2, and DVCPro.  Audio can come from any video source as well as from DAT.  

All sources are directly interfaced with and controlled by the AVID.  In addition, the Xpress has a complete ProTools package for advanced audio editing.
 

The new facility includes a granite conference table, granite counters and granite editor's desk, LCD displays, even a Rancilio espresso machine.

FIELD PRODUCTION:

Field production equipment includes a AJ-D215 DVCPro camera as well as donations from the manufacturers of  a Vinten tripod and fluid head, AKG wireless microphone,  Anton-Bauer power, a neat PortaBrace field case, and Tiffen filters.

First - Look for more great media projects from the Soho Center to follow up on our well-reviewed Business of Family Child Care video.  (Our National Children's Literacy Videos are the next!)

Second - If your non-profit organization needs high-end media - whether print, PSAs (radio or television), or long-form videos - call us!  We would be glad to explore ways your organization can work with the Soho Center to develop high quality media (video-based , web-based, or print) to support your projects and initiatives - whether in the child care field or any other legitimate non-profit arena. And thanks to our new expanded in-house capabilities, we can offer you high-end media at a very reasonable cost. 

We have an excellent track record in planning and developing media that WORKS - and we'd be glad to discuss working with your non-profit to develop other high-quality media projects.
