Send them the PAL tape. Believe me they can play anything back there. They
have their own studio, and presentation room. I know they have PAL capable
monitors, and if anything they could transfer yer tape to NTSC if they don't
have a universal playback VTR. A demo disk won't get you very far, but it
doesnt hurt. They'll want to see some serious production/development. Your
international, so they may make an exception unless they already have
established beta sites overseas in UK and I know they have several in ASIA
(cause its NTSC for Toaster).
As for formats BetaCam would be ideal. SVHS then VHS. But if your serious
about being a site, go Betacam. He wasnt kidding about how tough it is to
become a site.
Want an address...
NewTek Inc.
215 S.E. Eigth Street
Topeka, KS 66603
You could send them email as well... I forget the address off hand though,
something like: renderworld.com or renderworld@netcom.com not sure, but
someone from the mailing list would know it for sure.
