Introduction for TVGraphics

Greetings everyone,

I've been visiting these forums for the past year - on and off - but didn't sign up or even start to post until very recently.

I work in broadcast television graphics with a major news company. Who that is.. is nobody's business. On a daily basis, I work with high-end video and graphics - preparing from broadcast during newscasts (several shows a day). That being said, I have years of experience in broadcast media to provide a perspective from a news 'insider.' No we don't doctor video and no, we aren't 'in' on some huge conspiracy. My department is full of normal people, stressed from unrelenting daily deadlines and we just don't have time to play up to the conspiracy theories.

I also spent years as a motion picture cinematographer and years before that as a photo lab technician.

I am a skeptic and believe that most 'questionable' videos and photos have logical explanations to them. I may end up becoming a thorn in the side to many discussions - but I see myself as a voice of reason, someone who will look at 'so-called proof' with an experienced eye.

Are there things that are unexplained, yes. But that doesn't make them bizarre, unusual, extraterrestrial or paranormal. They are... just unexplained.

So... greetings everyone. I look forward to tearing apart some of the videos and photos that show up in these forums.

Hi there TVG, welcome to ATS!

Maybe you can lend your expertise at educating people on how video compression works. Just go to skunkworks and look out for threads with "reptilian" in the title

Glad to have you aboard

Im glad that we can have more sane people here. Id say at least 90% of the posts i "try to debunk" are attentionseekers. And i think that is a big problem for ATS because it makes the site more like a place for fairy tales and not discussion.

When that is said. Good luck, because we need it. The common mentality of those who wants to belive so badly is "either you are with me or against me" .. the american way..
