I'm an avid music composer who's thinking of doing a few video snipets to promote myself...I'm just wondering if anyone can show me some on-line stuff they've done using vegas....also, I'm wondering what more important...the quality of the camera, or the video editor?????
also, can vegas export quick time videos?
ciao

1. Check out Chienworks site for sample videos edited using Vegas Video http://www.vegasusers.com/vidshare/
2. The skill of the editor will almost always be more important than the quality of the media (A good editor will be able to compensate for poor video quality but a poorly edited video will suck even if the quality of the media is great)
3. Yes, Vegas can export to quicktime

Let's be balanced, here. If you want a great final product then all steps must be of the highest quality. Shoot footage with distribution in mind...you'd shoot for streaming differently than you would for 16:9. Sound for streaming will have different parameters than surround sound...Lighting must provide the right amount of contrast...the amount of movement in streaming video will be less than widescreen.
