There’s been a few betacam tapes lying around here and we needed to get the footage off of them and into the computer. Luckily we have friends in the broadcast industry who had a Betacam deck we could borrow. The BVW-75P is an ancient piece of machinery but a real marvel of electrical and mechanical engineering. Back in 1989 it’s suggested retail price was around $53,000. Now units online are fetching around $7500, still a hefty sum.
We hooked the BVW-75P into our sony anycast through the composite out signal, and use the anycast to convert the signal to firewire which was fed into our computer. The footage turned out fairly nice considering one of the tapes was over ten years old.
The footage will be used for some promotional videos we’ll be making in the future for the upcoming ship ministry which we’ll be a part of.

This is the Marine Reach promo video from 2003:
Stable on the Strand is Townsville’s yearly event held down at the local beach. This year was a huge hit with estimates of close to 40,000 coming to the event. Each year a play is put on that represents the true Christmas story. This year ‘The Promise’ took it one step further. Not only did they outline the life of Jesus, they pretty much summed up the bible in about 20 minutes. You can watch it for youself below and see what amazing job they did.
Here’s a few videos put together by our friend Joanna to give you and idea of what happened on the Voice in the Dark Tour that Sara was a part of.
These are the videos that Stephen, Joanna and myself worked on for the Voice in the Dark Tour that Sara went on. The tour was mainly geared toward school kids showing them that there are injustices happening in the world and that they could do something about it. These videos were shown during the concert.
