Introduction and Announcements I am your host, Brent Bergherm. Welcome to Latitude Photography podcast, the place where travel-outdoor photographers come to learn, grow, create and be inspired. And if you’re like me, the experience of the journey is just as important to you as it is to be able to make top notch images from the places you visit. To me, the experience is enhanced by making good images and good images are enhanced by the experience. Thank you so much for being here. Today I’ve got three of the Latitude Regulars joining me as co-hosts. Kirk Keyes, Drake Dyck and Matt Bishop. Fellas, welcome to the show! Tell me briefly what you’ve been up to recently. It’s been forever since we’ve talked and I’m just so happy to be back with y’all on this crisp winter eve, at least for those of us in the northern hemisphere. Matt, let’s start with you. Drake, You’re next Kirk, did we save the best for last? :) I’ve got a few things to cover before we get to our main topic which is tripods. That is to state a goal I have for 2021. As many of you know, I have an affiliate link for Lensrentals.com A week or so ago I had some communications with them and they had stated that I was not doing too bad as an affiliate. I suppose compared to the others. So here’s my plan. I really want to rent a lot of gear and review it here on the show. If you’re willing to click on that link in the show notes a few pennies or dollars will come my way and I’ll be able to put that money largely towards rentals and the cycle will continue. A big thank you to those who’ve used the link in 2020 and I’m just hoping for a good push in 2021 to try and become their #1 affiliate. Also, during my hiatus this last quarter it seems the audience has grown a lot. I want to particularly thank Alex and Jewlie for leaving 5-star reviews in August, 2020. Alex said “I just started listening to the Latitude Photography Podcast. It’s rapidly becoming one of my favorite podcasts. Brent combines the technical and artistic sides of photography in a wonderful blend. Each episode has been really interesting so I’m working my way back through all the older shows I’ve missed. It’s obvious that Brent is putting a lot of work and time into this. He’s very organized. Love it!” Thank you Alex. And I might also suggest with my Latitude Regulars, there’s certainly a lot of effort they put into it as well. And they deserve some credit for sure. For example, Kirk spearheaded the show notes for this episode and it was a lot of work! And then Jewlie also talked about the Master Photography Podcast and our amazing facebook groups we operate with these two shows. Master Photography Podcast certainly being the roundtable show where I’m a partner. But as it relates to the Latitude Photography Podcast fb group. I’m going to make a few changes. Hopefully you agree that it’s for the better. The first change is that I realize that facebook is at least partly what you make it. So to keep me on the right track, I want to make it a better place for all of us. And that means that I’ll be posting more in the group about things that I think you’ll be interested in. It will hopefully be a natural extension to the show. Also, I invite all you listeners out there to submit your own images. As you hear me state when I start the show we’re about learning, growning, creating and inspiring. If you’ve got an image that you’d like to share please do so. I’m also going to experiment with simply allowing posts to be automatically approved. If things get out of hand we’ll go back to needing to approve posts but it’s my hope to make the group a great place to share our photography and our experiences between episodes. And who knows, maybe an image or two will get mentioned on the show from time to time! OK, enough of the chit chat on those things, let’s get to the main topic. I want to start off by asking each of you how many tripods you own. And secondly, what does the tripod mean to you? Why do you use it, and please give me a more indepth answer besides “to hold my camera.” :) [The fellas respond] I have two tripods. A larger Induro tripod (CT304 legs with the bowl spider (the current model is the GIT 304)) and a Kirk Enterprises BH-1 ball head. I then have a smaller Manfrotto 190GO Carbon Fiber with a Sirui ball head. For proof on the pronunciation: https://youtu.be/VfbjATWugak Tripod Terms Legs: the things that extend and can be set at different angles. The main body of the tripod. Spider/Yoke/Apex: The central hub that connects all the legs together and provides connection to the head. Head: The unit that the camera mounts to, connects to the Spider/Yoke/Apex Quick Release Plate: The unit that is attached to your camera and that connects to the head. Not all tripod heads use a QR plate, but many do. L brackets would also fit into this category. Center column: Many tripods have a column that sits in the Spider. You can raise it and lower it for added height. It does cost you some stability though. Tripod Types All-Purpose - Tall enough to get the camera to eye level for most people. More stable than a travel tripod, but they are bulkier and heavier as well.  Travel Tripods - smallest, lightest. Often not as stable as larger. Systematic - Tend to modular with removable base. Often tall, have a large spider/yoke/apex, and thick legs. Thus, they are usually bulky and heavy. Tripod Options Leg Material Carbon fiber – usually considered the best weight to strength ratio. But the lightness of a carbon tripod makes them less stable. Interesting to note that, certainly, not all CF is made the same. You have different layers of CF used by different manufacturers, different fiber to resin ratio, different layer thicknesses and direction and “modulus” or build of the fibers themselves. All play a role in determining stiffness of the legs. For aluminum, it’s pretty much a straight correlation, more material makes a stiffer tripod leg. Aluminum still a great option. Not as light as carbon. Aluminum transmits vibrations from the ground more than carbon. Susceptible to corrosion from salt water. Older aluminum tripods can be a great value, especially when bought used. Basalt fiber – not common, but like carbon fiber. Wood – not just for large format! They dampen vibrations best. Exceptionally durable.. Size and Weight Number of Leg segments - fewer segments should be stiffer. Leg angle adjustment - pull out/push in tab, thumb lever? Removable center column? Is the center column reversible for low angle views? Feet - are spikes, snow/sand platforms, or rock claw available? Center brace - may add stability, may be a sign of poor overall design.  But also prevent low camera positions. Leg locks - twist, snap, knob Leg quick release? Bag Hook? Heads – As important as the legs! Ballhead rankings Ball - versatile and lightweight, but not very precise. 3-Way Tilt - lots of control, but bulkier and heavier than a ball head. Tilt-Head - More precise setup than a ball head as the camera can only move up and down. You may need to combine with a rotator plate. Drawback is there is no 3rd axis of motion to level the camera. 3-Way Geared Head - the ultimate in precision. Each axis is controlled with a geared knob and can be adjusted independently from each other. Works well for studio or night/Milky Way photography. Gimbal - when balanced, the camera and lens become "weightless". You can Rotate the camera to any direction by just pushing it. However, they are big, bulky, and heavy. Best when using really big lenses. You can somewhat emulate a gimbal with a ball head by putting the ball arm into the side slot, loosen the rotation lock and ball tension, and shoot from the side of the ball head. Make sure your camera is balanced on the ball for this to work best. Panorama Rig - horizontal rail, vertical rail with a tilting stage, and a rotator base. Allows precise camera movements for overlapping panorama images. You do want the tripod support to be level when using a Pano rig. Fluid Head - Allows smooth pan and tilt movements, usually used for video applications. Car Window mount - clamps to a vehicle window, sometimes with a ball head or not. Head Mounting Locks Some tripod mounting plates have set screws you can tighten against the bottom of the head to keep the entire head from spinning loose. You do not need to overtighten it, as it may deform the bottom plate of the head. Mounting Plates on Tripod Heads Arca-Swiss is the de facto standard. They are a dove-tail design and Manfrotto - some are unique to Manfrotto, some are Arca-Swiss. Video/Fluid heads have large mounting plates. Connecting the Camera Quick release mounting plates L-Bracket - allow easy reorientation for landscape/vertical positioning Make sure you can still access batteries or memory cards. Other Features and considerations Tripod Levelling Base Some mount on the tripod baseplate, some replace the center of the yoke. It allows the head to be quickly leveled, independently from the tripod legs. Great for pano rig setups. Cheap Not Worth It   Cheap head are hard to use! The often droop, especially with large lenses. They can also shift the position of the camera when you tighten them. Best to avoid. Bubble Levels Some tripods come with bubble levels. They can be on tripod yoke or on the camera mounting plate. You can add one to your camera hot shoe or use one built internally in the camera operating system. Each can location serves a different purpose. Do you need them all? Not necessarily. Using Your Tripod: Best Practices In general, the yoke/legs do not need to be perfectly level. If doing a pano - the head needs to be level so the camera can rotate without angling up or downward. Keep your camera/lens near the middle of the center of gravity. Add a "rock/stone bag” - it is a hammock that hangs between the tripod legs. You can add weight to the tripod to make it more stable. Useful in windy conditions, or when you have a lot of weight mounted to the head. To carry the tripod with your gear attached or not? Any tips for working quickly or should we just forget it? (Brent: I like to grip multiple twist locks at once and loosen and tighten when opening or collapsing the tripod. It helps me speed things up when I’m in a hurry) Tripod Testing There are lots of opinions out there, but little actual scientific testing. Stiffness, Damping, Leg Angle, Height, Weight, Material - all affect the performance of the tripod. Check out:  https://thecentercolumn.com/ Also check out the Weight Ratings are Meaningless Article. A great read. They have rankings for systematic, all purpose, travel, as well as a volume weighted travel tripod ranking. Their top 13 rated tripod brands are Gitzo, RRS, FLM, ProMedia, Jobu Design, Feisol, Leofoto, Manfrotto, Induro, Colorado Tripod Company, Oben, Peak Design, and Benro. They do not include usability in their ratings, but they do have reviews of many tripods, and they discuss it there. The bottom line is, weight ratings are essentially useless because they don’t consider real world applications in their ratings. Who cares if a tripod can support 20 pounds or 80 pounds. Will it support your gear that is potentially awkward, heavy or off-balance. Your use of a gimbal tripod head and a monster lens will have different requirements as compared to someone on a mirrorless camera with a fixed 23mm lens. Tripod care - If you hear grinding noise, parts are stiff or will not lock - it is time to clean! Sand, Deserts, Water, Ocean - salt water is the worst! Clean them - take them apart. Take a shower with them. Lubrication - use a weatherproof grease. Gitzo Grease about $30; enough for two cleaningsSil-Glyde, Induro Recommended Grease about $9; enough for about 50 cleanings Leg locks, even twist locks need lubrication.Do not over lubricate them - it will collect dust and dirt.Occasionally disassemble metal parts - leg spikes can corrode and bind. Disassemble them and lubricate on reassembly. Use a small brush like an old toothbrush.Do not loose plastic rings on twist-locks. Keep them in order so you can remember how to reassemble them. Legs are like nesting dolls and must go back in a certain order based on size. Some twist-locks have arrows to help you realign the parts. Other support options - Monopod - combine with a tilt head for a great sports/wildlife setup. Platypod - get low! Beanbag - still low, but less precise than a Platypod Rock or ground - the lowest you can get! Trash cans in the city - Brent has a short story! The PLAMP by Wimberley! https://www.tripodhead.com/products/plamp-main.cfm   The Worst Tripod - the one you do not carry with you. Heavier not always better - you may not carry it if it is too heavy. Lighter not always better - not enough support can lead to soft photos. Momma Bear, Poppa Bear, Baby Bear - find one that is just right for the job.  Side Notes: Do not always need a tripod - If you are using a fast-enough shutter speed relative to lens focal length. Consider Image Stabilization in lens / body. Intentional camera movements. Shooting handheldUse your body to brace your camera.Stand with your feet apart, kneel, or even sit down on something.Pull against your neck strap.Hold your breath or press the button in between breaths.Create a Zen moment.Practice. More than one tripod – There is not one tripod to rule them all. It is up to you to decide what features are going to work best for your photography. Tripods are like lenses; you will want to match your tripod to your subject.  May want to turn off IS – When using a tripod, especially with long exposures. Some have a "tripod detection mode" and automatically turn off the IS. Quickly releasing Twist Locks – With practice, you may be able to grab the twist locks on one leg and loosen them all at once. With a quick shake of the tripod, you maybe able to get all the leg segments to extend fully! Manufacturer Thoughts: (this is not an exhaustive list) Gitzo: Distributed by Vitec Group which also distributes Manfrotto and Lowepro among many other recognized brands in the photo industry.Considered top of the line and very expensive. Long history (since the ‘50s) manufacturing tripodsMade in Italy Promediagear: Small independent company located 30 miles south of Chicago.High quality, precision design. Rather expensive.USA made Really Right Stuff: Manufacturing tripods and more since 2002 (quick release plates since 1990 under previous ownership). Known for excellent customer service and they always go beyond your expectations. Price point is high enough you should consider it an investment.USA Made (Company based in Lehi, Utah) and proud of it. Induro: Good variety of products and very good quality, though not to the level of the previously mentioned producers. A striking resemblance to Benro tripods, since they have the same mailing address it’s no surprise. Though the branding does seem to be targeted to different types of photographers.Made in China.Distributed by MAC Group which also distributes MeFoto, Kupo, Shimoda, Tenba, X-Rite and several other photography related brands. Feisol: Started as a carbon fiber tube manufacturer. Full line of products. Made in Taiwan Sirui: Wide Variety of products for different types of photography and needs. Made In China Other notes: Heard a leg crack at Thor’s Well. Still works well. Do not immediately count out aluminum - it is still good option. Lube the metal parts like knobs. Seals on Feisol - really well designed. Swipe out much of the dirt.

I had some FFsycontact with them recently where I mentioned my brief hiatus and they basically responded saying, hmm, wow, wonder what’ll happen if you kick it into high gear ‘cause you’re already one of our top affiliates. To which I was a bit surprised. But if you’re going to rent something anyway I’d love it if you’d be able to help support me and the show by using my link in the show notes. My goal is to rent a lot of gear in 2021 and I’d love to just turn all these affiliate earnings back in to rentals. So if you’d like me to review more gear on the show this is one way to support that :)

Hoy tuvimos la grata oportunidad de compartir unos minutos con el atleta elite Freddy Moreno. Campeón en la categoría Master y ahora una promesa olímpica. Hablamos detalladamente de su técnica de carrera, entrenamiento y un poco de psicología deportiva. Me atrevo a decir que escuchar esta historia será de gran inspiración para muchos. Su sueño olímpico puede que sea algo inalcanzable para muchos de nosotros, pero seguro te inspirará a dar lo mejor de ti en tu próxima carrera y entrenamiento. Sueño Olímpico a los 42 años: Para muchos participar en unas olimpiadas a los 42 años es una locura. No para Freddy Moreno Castañeda. Este maratonista colombiano se impone objetivos ambiciosos. Desde su victoria en la maratón de Santiago de Chile con un tiempo de 2:29:51 esta meta ha cobrado fuerza. Para un colombiano, es necesario hacer una marca inferior a 2:19:00 para clasificar a las olimpiadas. Freddy entrena seis días a la semana para concretar esta linda meta. ¿Quién es Freddy Moreno? Freddy en esposo y padre. Nació en 1975 en la ciudad de Bogotá. Su niñez la vivió en un barrio muy humilde al sur de la ciudad, donde la droga, prostitución y pandillas colmaban las calles. Aunque nunca participo de los vicios de sus amigos como la marihuana o cocaína, si fue ladrón de piezas de carros de lujo desde los 9 años. Cuenta que un día a los 12 aÅ„os de edad recapacito y se dio cuenta que él no era un criminal. Poco a poco se retiro de las pandillas y se dedico al estudio y al deporte. Logro graduarse de bachiller y ahora se desempeña como mensajero para una empresa privada, para la cual trabaja ya hace 14 años. Empezó desde abajo, lavando buses.   Sus inicios en el atletismo. Freddy considera que su sueño olímpico no empezó a una edad temprana. Todo lo contrario. En el colegio corría 100 metros y aunque le ganaba a muchos, nunca se imagino que el atletismo seria una parte fundamental de su identidad. Solía correr unos 30 kilómetros una vez a la semana de manera totalmente recreativa. Nunca mirando el reloj. A los 31 años, un entrenado lo vio correr en el parque de su barrio y lo invito a entrenar con él. Después de unos años de entrenamiento, logró un tiempo de 1:11 en la media maratón y marcó 2:49:23 en su primera maratón. Tenía ya 38 años y nadie le apostaba a que en menos de 4 años se convertiría en una promesa real del deporte colombiano y de un rival en cualquier carrera a nivel internacional en la categoría Master (mayores de 40 años).     ¿Atleta elíte? Elíte es un adjetivo que se utiliza frecuentemente en el mundo del atletismo En el mundo del ajedrez, es fácil identificar el ranking de cada jugador de acuerdo al puntaje. Existen los Grandmasters (mayor a 2600 puntos), hasta los de Clase C (menos de 1600 puntos). En el atletismo se puede utilizar la siguiente tabla:   Freddy según esta tabla, se encuentra en el cuarto nivel de atletas. Bajar 10 minutos en la distancia de maratón no es algo fácil. Pero él quiere demostrarle a muchos que si se puede y que personas como Meb Keflezighi (41),  Jo Pavey (42), Erika Olivera (40) y Bernard Lagat (41) no son dioses inmortales. Estos cuatro atletas participaron en diferentes distancias de competencias atléticas. Freddy quiere representar a Colombia en la maratón de Tokio 2020. Entrenamiento Tener un sueño olímpico no es suficiente. Obviamente, debes trabajar por él. Freddy corre alrededor de 100 kilómetros a la semana, repartidos en seis días semanales. Lunes, martes y viernes hace entrenamientos de 18 a 20 kilómetros en la zona cardíaca # 3. Miércoles es su día de velocidad en pista donde suele hacer distancias entre 400 y 1600 metros en zona # 5. Promedia entre 65 y 67 segundos por cada 400 metros. Sábado es su tirada larga, la cual también hace a ritmo 3. Martes y jueves entrena en el gimnasio tren inferior y superior unos 90 minutos. Relata que se cuida mucho de lesiones y se enfoca en hacer entrenamientos de calidad y con una carga moderada. Debe entrenar en las madrugadas antes del trabajo o después de una jornada laboral de 10 horas o más. Dice con gracia que entrena con fuerza y siempre «para adelante, porque atrás asustan». Berlín 2017 Cumplir su sueÅ„o olímpico es un proceso. Entre ellos fue correr la media maratón de Bogotá en 1:15 en el 2017 y ahora se esta preparando para mejorar su mejor marca personal en Berlín 2017. Sus limitados recursos económicos con su trabajo de mensajero y falta de apoyo privado y estatal, no han sido obstáculos para soñar. Gracias al apoyo del dueño de la empresa donde trabaja, Freddy ya tiene un pie en Berlín, ya que cuenta con los tiquetes de avión. Ahora esta buscando el apoyo de personas como tu y yo para reunir el resto de presupuesto para este viaje y continuar su entrenamiento. Puedes marcar la diferencia en la vida de otra persona haciendo una donación de $5.00 o más siguiendo este enlace: www.GoFundMe.com/olimpiadas. Seguro después de escuchar la entrevista y ver lo sencillo e inspirador que es Freddy, querrás apoyarlo en su sueño olímpico.   Psicología deportiva: Freddy recomienda tres cosas: No estar ansioso antes de la competencia, pensar en otra cosa. Hacer su propia carrera, no competir con otros sino contigo mismo. Por último, no ser tan «mecánico», olvidarte del reloj y correr basado en esfuerzo percibido. Es importante conocerse a sí mismo. Su fuente predilecta de información en este tema es «Corre con Serrano». Te invitamos a que de la misma manera como entrenas tus piernas y pulmones, a que entrenes tu mente. Hemos escuchado que el atletismo es 90% mental. Freddy comparte esta idea. Quizá debamos aprender de su experiencia. El asegura que «todo es posible».   No te pierdas el próximo episodio.

The Song: Lazy NightsThe Artist: George WoodMr. Wood on the Web:George Wood :: MusicPromedia Podcast

Hi there and welcome to episode 11 of the Promedia Podcast. If you would like to use any of the songs featured on my Podcasts please let me know don’t forget you can drop me an email and I can provide you with a higher quality version if required georgewood1966@hotmail.com Something a bit different for this week, it’s the “all jingle show”. Each one of these tracks was composed or submitted to be used as a jingle for another Podcast, if you’re a big Podcast fan you may have heard some of them already. The first three were create for the Excel Guru himself Bill Jelen, the first song was inspired by duelling banjos with Bill battling it out with fellow podcaster to see who has the best solution to your Excel problems. I don’t know a lot about programming banjo but I was really pleased with the results. Track two again was for Bill; he wanted a jingle for his Where is it Wednesday Podcast; I decided to keep it simple and catchy (all the best jingles are) and ripped off High School Musical, if you’re going to steal do it from the best I say. The next two and also for Bill, Bill had very clear ideas about what he wanted for this jingle, if you guessed in the style of ‘Born to run’ you were spot on. Onto the Giz Wiz Letters jingles, the first one was a special holiday version with mandatory jingle bells and lush strings, the next one was the original and still sometimes used on Leo’s show, I am really pleased these jingles caught on and have been themselves copied; the Daily Giz Wiz is an excellent Pocast and deserves all the support it gets. The last two songs I didn’t compose, they are cover version of Game Spots Hot Spot theme ( called Too hot); I sent it to the guys but never got a reply; the second is my take on the Giant Bombcast theme; again I sent it to the guys but never got a reply, I guess they were either too busy, never got it, or thought it was shit! So there you have the Promedia Jingle Show; please send feedback good or bad as long as it’s constructive, until next time…

Hi there and welcome to episode 10 of the Promedia Podcast. If you would like to use any of the songs featured on my Podcasts please let me know don’t forget you can drop me an email and I can provide you with a higher quality version if required georgewood1966@hotmail.com Only one track this week, it’s called Goodbye Grey Sky, and no you’re not hearing things I am singing, now I know I don’t have the greatest voice, I can hold a tune and that’s about it; I’m hoping to get a ‘real’ singer to record this song at some point. I think there’s a bit of a David Gray vibe about the vocals (no offence David) which works well; the song is about depression or rather looking on the bright side as Monty Python would say. I feel the song could use a nice guitar solo but as I don’t play guitar keyboard will suffice, musicians out there may notice the song changes from minor to major for the solo (you sad people) Please send feedback good or bad as long as it’s constructive, until

Hi there and welcome to episode 9 (has it really bean 2 years?) of the Promedia Podcast. If you would like to use any of the songs featured on my Podcasts please let me know don’t forget you can drop me an email and I can provide you with a higher quality version if required georgewood1966@hotmail.com Only one track this week, it’s called Inner Light and is unusual in as much it’s based on a Shuffle groove which itself is fairly uncommon these days. The song as it was (just the piano part) sat on my hard drive for a good few years, I had totally forgotten all about it until one day I was going over some of my old ideas (looking for inspiration). I re-recorded the piano and the rest of the song just fell into place, there are lots of lead strings (so it’s very me) and there are some nice melodies; the piano at the beginning is reminiscent of Billy Joe’s Piano Man, not sure f that’s intentional just an observation. Please send feedback good or bad as long as its constructive, I promise it won’t be anther 2 years!

Hi there and welcome to episode 8 of the Promedia Podcast; as usual I’ve included another 3 songs for your listening pleasure. If you would like to use any of the songs featured on my Podcasts please let me know don’t forget you can drop me an email and I can provide you with a higher quality version if required georgewood1966@hotmail.com Track 1 is called ‘Threshold’ and was originally created to be used as a blanket track on level one of a space shooter video game (can’t for the life of me remember the name); I’m sure if it was ever used in it’s original form, however the version on the Podcast had to be recreated using the original audio file. Track 2 is called ‘Música genérica’ and was inspired by all the lain songs that were made very popular by artists such as Shakira and Enrique; to be honest I couldn’t think of a better name (Babel fish translation of ‘Generic music’). Track 3 is called ‘Eye in the sky’ and was created as a blanket track for VIP on Air’s traffic / travel reports, as mentioned previously the station has subsequently relented / rebalanced so I don’t think the music is in use at the moment. OK so I keep threatening a Retro show, I suppose I’m hesitant because I don’t want to let anyone hear anything that doesn’t have the highest production values or just simply sounds dated (some of them are 15 years old), if you’re interested please le me know: georgewood1966@hotmail.com

Hi there and welcome to episode 7 of the Promedia Podcast; as usual I’ve included another 3 songs for your listening pleasure. If you would like to use any of the songs featured on my Podcasts please let me know don’t forget you can drop me an email and I can provide you with a higher quality version if required georgewood1966@hotmail.com Track 1 is called ‘Core Meltdown’ and while not a favourite of mine has received a lot of positive feedback, I’m not sure if there was anything in particular that inspired this song, although in hindsight the orchestral stabs do sound a little (exactly) like the Weakest link stings, just coincidence? Track 2 is called ‘Out and about’ and was created as a backing track for a commercial DVD about the Boy Scout movement; it was supposed to be fun, unobtrusive with a little touch of a Celtic theme here and there for good measure (you can hear some Celtic whistles during the bridge sections). Track 3 is called ‘Travelogue’ and was created as a theme tuned of VIP on Air’s travel magazine show, as mentioned previously the station has subsequently relented / rebalanced so I don’t think the music is in use at the moment. If there song makes you think of holidays in Spain, sun, sea and sand I’ve been successful. OK so I keep threatening a Retro show, I suppose I’m hesitant because I don’t want to let anyone hear anything that doesn’t have the highest production values or just simply sounds dated (some of them are 15 years old), if you’re interested please le me know: georgewood1966@hotmail.com

Hi there and welcome to episode 6 of the Promedia Podcast; as usual I’ve included another 3 songs for your listening pleasure. All 3 songs on this show were created for a radio station called VIP on Air; the station has since re-branded and re-launched, I’m not sure if they’re still in use. Track 1 is called ‘Crossing over’ and has a nod towards Go West, being a huge 80s fan I was influenced with the production techniques used back in the day; if you listen to ‘Call me’ you’ll hear where the inspiration came from. Track 2 is called ‘Daydreamer’ and I hope does have a dream-like quality, the song developed from a simple percussion loop I found on the Internet, I don’t know where it was taken from. Track 3 is called ‘Lazy nights’, OK so you’ve finally figures song titles are no my strong point. This song was chosen to launch VIP on Air, I was really happy about this as there was a large press contingency present. Again like most of my songs it just developed from a simple chord progression / groove into the finished song. Next show might be a retro show I haven’t decided; the songs in questions are getting on for 15 years old and were recorded on cassette tape (they sound it too) so I’m not sure if I want to lay myself bare, if you’re interested please le me know: georgewood1966@hotmail.com

Hi there and welcome to episode 5 of the Promedia Podcast; as usual I’ve included another 3 songs for your listening pleasure. Track 1 is called ‘Slack jaw’ and features a picked Banjo arpeggio; it is quite atmospheric which I feels is caused primarily by the traditional Banjo licks played over Minor chords instead of Major. If you’ve ever heard the Music for the BBC version of Hitch-hikers Guide to the Galaxy you’ll know where the inspiration came from. Track 2 is called ‘Lost in a dream’, I suppose it does have a dream-like quality however there’s not a lot to tell really other than the song just developed naturally from a simple chord progression, it was one of the first songs to feature the virtual guitarist so it does sit quite prominently ion the mix. Track 3 is called ‘High Five’, well what can I say, it’s hard to do a song featuring Piano and Acoustic bass played in 5/4 time signature and it not sound like Dave Brubeck’s Take 5 (well it was for me OK), I may go back to this song at some point, I do feel it is rather short. I hope you enjoy the tracks, I had contemplated adding speech to the Podcast but wasn’t sure if that would actually add anything, is that something you would like to hear? Talking about the songs, their history and what went into creating them? One last thing… If you subscribed to the show via iTunes I would appreciate any honest feedback

Hi there and welcome to episode 4 of the Promedia Podcast; as usual I’ve included another 3 songs for your listening pleasure; to reiterate I was thinking about including some of my early material, we’re talking 1990 onwards; I have to warn you some of the recording techniques were not particularly stellar but I just about managed to capture the essence of the songs. So what do you think; would you like to hear some ‘retro’ stuff too? Track 1 is called ‘Nice’n’Sleazy’, I only finished recording it the day before the show was posted. The song itself started as an idea for a bass line, and was originally in a minor key; after sleeping on the track it was obvious it wasn’t going anywhere so decided to start a fresh. As you’ll hear it kind of sounds like your traditional 70’s porn track. I’m not sure if it’s the Wah Guitar or the Hammond Organ? I’ve used a ton of soft synths on this track, I’ve used the B4 (a virtual Hammond), a Pro 53 (a virtual Prophet) and also a Virtual KORG Mono Synth for the Bass line, I do hope you like it, it was a lot of fun to compose, especially the honky-tonk piano parts. Track 2 is called ‘Looking up’ (as in ‘Things are’), don’t ask me to explain the name because I can’t; this song was inspired by a commercial MIDI file I was commissioned to program called ‘You only get what you give’ by The new radicals; if you ever hear the song you’ll hear the similarities immediately. Track 3 is called ‘Seeing the light’ and was inspired by a 3 note jingle I once heard on BBC Radio Scotland, the whole song is based on the first three notes of the song (G, D and C), and unusually for me most of the song is based on only two chords (C and Bb). I hope you enjoy the tracks, I had contemplated adding speech to the Podcast but wasn’t sure if that would actually add anything, is that something you would like to hear? Talking about the songs, their history and what went into creating them? One last thing… If you subscribed to the show via iTunes I would appreciate any honest feedback

Hi there and welcome to episode 3 of the Promedia Podcast; I’ve included another 3 songs for your listening pleasure; I was actually thinking about including some of my early material, we’re talking 1990 onwards; I have to warn you some of the recording techniques were not particularly stellar but I just about managed to capture the essence of the songs. So what do you think; would you like to hear some ‘retro’ stuff too? Track 1 is called ‘Propaganda’, I have no idea why I picked the name other than the intro sounded somehow political, and there was also a German 80s band of the same name I liked too. The song was originally created for Media Tracks library CD; I was commissioned to create 2 tracks so I created 3 (just to be on the safe side). The intro is very orchestral, or as orchestral as I could get with the kit I had. After the intro the song morphs into a funky dance track with orchestral strings featuring prominently throughout (orchestral strings were part of my brief when composing the song). Track 2 is called ‘Head over Heels’ and was created for a remake of the classic 80s 8 bit computer game of the same name. I was in touch with one of the developers at the time but lost touch due to other commitments. You’ll recognise the style of you heard 8 bit Junkie on the last Podcast. The whole song was inspired by the drum loop you can hear in the background. Track 3 is called ‘Fatal attraction’ and was defiantly inspired by the kind of stuff Anistacia was putting out at the time, I believe she had a keyboard player playing the Bass parts at the time, this track is also rather special because it features some ‘real’ guitar, one of my musician friends (Stuart Craston) was kind enough to record the verse rhythm guitar and also the guitar solo, cheers Stu! I hope you enjoy the tracks, I had contemplated adding speech to the Podcast but wasn’t sure if that would actually add anything, is that something you would like to hear? Talking about the songs, their history and what went into creating them? One last thing… If you subscribed to the show via iTunes I would appreciate any honest feedback

Hi there and welcome to episode 2 of the Promedia Podcast; I had some great feedback already from the first show lots of friends request and even a fan. If you are a musician and you also create your own music please get in touch with me, I’d love to feature your songs on the show too. Track 1 this week is called 8 bit junkie; the 8 bit refers to the kind of music you might have heard on an old sk00l 8 bit machine (like a Commodore 64); the music chips were very limited so the musicians had to be very creative to get the most out of the machines. Because the hardware only supported 3 note polyphony in some cases a common trick was to use a very fast arpeggio (basically a chord with the notes staggered) to emulate a chord. This method gave these songs a unique quality and style and I wanted to use this effect on 8 bit junkie, I hope you like it. Track 2 is called Proteus and is an out and out dance song which I did back in 2001, at the time I was still programming commercial MIDI files and had done some dance songs cover versions. After listening to the tracks and figuring out the various elements that go to make up a dance track (must genre music is formulaic I suppose) I wanted to see if I had what it took (I was in my late 30s don’t forget) to create an authentic sounding dance track, I will let you be the judge. Track 3 is called Critical mass, I’m, afraid there not a lot to tell here, the song kind of developed by itself. I think I had recently finished a Girls Aloud MIDI file (Sound of the underground) and was inspired by the feel. I also liked the Pulp fiction guitar sound and how it sounded through a digital delay. I hope you enjoy the tracks, I had contemplated adding speech to the Podcast but wasn’t sure if that would actually add anything, is that something you would like to hear?

This is the first Podcast I have posted here; I will be posting more songs on a regular basis. Please send me feedback good or bad, as long as it's constructive – georgewood1966@hotmail.com I’ve listed 3 songs, the fist song is called ‘Nothing but the truth’; it’s slightly melancholy yet still uplifting, with beautiful atmospheric woodwinds and haunting strings. The next song is called ‘Achievement unlocked’ which was created by using a loop from Major Nelson’s Podcast and 2 sound effects from the Xbox 360 (extra points if you can spot them). Finally is ‘Got Carter’, the lead synth sound and Acoustic bass laid over a syncopated drum groove with some luscious strings for the bridge. http://podsafeaudio.com/jamroom/bands/1454/music.php Message to Pod Casters I invite you to browse through the songs on this site and download anything that strikes your fancy.
