hone in on the industry your speaking of.
I see em as 3 different industries:
The event videography group (weddings local sporting events, ect)
The corporate group (corporate video, internal communication, satellite shows, ect)
The broadcast group (tv shows, commercials, indy 'film' gurus)
While these three groups are unofficial and just my opinion, they are all 3 growing. The middle one is growing the most and the fastest due to demand and the ever-dropping price of the tools required. All 3 affect the others and all 3 feed the others. Quite a groovy thing.
What I mean is, once apple realeased FCP that upped the anny for folks like discreet and avid to justify their prices. They responded with better stuff at lower prices and that will continue. It also upped the anny for the artists as there are doob-smokin' MTV watcher at the ripe age of 15 out there making some killer stuff in their basement with less than 3k worth of gear and plenty of imagination.
Now the wedding guys are doing more and more corporate stuff, the corporate dudes are doing more broadcast stuff and the broadcasters have added toys like FCP, XDV or vegas video to their arson for many different uses. A big ole happy mixin' pot of vidiots.
Thats the long version for I know of no revenue charts for the biz.
