Ned's Toy Box
Join us as MoPictive’s own Ned Soltz demos his favorite of the latest gear that has floated across his product reviewer’s desk. We never know what Ned’s going to pull out of his Toy Box!
Ned Soltz has over 25 years of experience in various areas of production and computer technology. He started using FCP 1.0 immediately after its 1999 release and has not looked back since. He was among the founders of the Los Angeles FCPUG. He likes to shoot, edit, and just generally support and troubleshoot the entire production and post production process. But Ned is really a gear-head at heart. He is a contributing editor of Videography and DV Magazine and is one of the administrators of 2-pop.com. The Soltz family just moved to Teaneck and looks forward to greater participation in the user group and production communities.
