CBS had an interesting story this morning on the Live from the Met broadcasts.
To me, most fascinating was the revelation that the director used to work in sitcoms.
A very energetic man, making cuts between the 10 cameras.
His stated that his biggest worry was wether the actors would make their designated marks on the stage......
And I could only think, why must I be coerced of where to rest my gaze?
1 camera, 2 microphones, is it not enough for the art to speak for itself?
Met chief Gelb spoke at length about how a revitalization had been imperative.
I don't doubt that, but at what cost? Mp3's put music in the hands of many......
Now, if they would sell a broadcast on the internet at 1.4Mbps,
a technology demonstrated by KEXP, that could be a treat for the world!
