Hi Ron, Thanks so much for the post and your kind words about EventDV. One of the great thrills of the last 5-7 years has been the opportunity to work with you and Tasra, both on EventDV and ReFocus. Your energy and ambition have always been inspiring to me. And thanks to everyone who’s posted comments. It’s gratifying to know that EventDV has had a positive impact on your businesses and filmmaking, and that it’s achieved some of the goals I had when I started the magazine. For those of you who asked, I’m still with InfoToday, talking about a new role and what new projects we might pursue. We’ll see what develops.
Best regards to all, Steve

In reply to Todd O'Neill. Hey Todd. I don't think Stephen is moving on at all. My understanding is that he'll still be at InfoToday.

I’ve been reading EventDV and it’s past incarnations as Emedia and CD-ROM Professional since the mid 90s. Always well done.
Hope Stephan is moving on to bigger and better things.

In reply to awesomeshot. For the record, I don't think Steve is going anywhere. He'll still be at InfoToday.

It’s a sad day for journalism and readers alike. I looked forward to every issue of EventDV and I’m sad to see it go. Happy trails Steve and best of luck in your new ventures.

Ron, I think you summed-up many of my own thoughts about the magazine that was more that just another trade journal. Steve approached me the year after he approached you at the same convention and I have enjoyed my time writing for the EventDV community and working alongside some of the brightest minds and most exciting personalities as a columnist and then contributing editor.

EventDV is part of my identity – the same way my own video production company is and the same way my local video association, the BCPVA is. So losing this part of my public persona is as much of a milestone as when, 5 years ago, I started writing for the magazine.

I guess on the bright side, this change will give me more time to contribute to daredreamermag.com and a few other writing outlets but I will always have a special place in my heart for my time at EventDV Magazine.

I too look forward to seeing what Steve’s next big move will be and I know whatever he does, he will create a community that values him as much as ours does.

So very sad..this leaves us without a magazine about our industry…it was more that a trade magazine, as Stephen said, it was about us ..written by us. I know Laura loved her years as a columnist and will forever cherish it. A big shout out to Steve for bringing knowledge & class to the table. He quoted Bob Dylan in his good-bye.

” My heart is not weary, it’s light and it’s free
I’ve got nothing but affection for all those who’ve sailed with me.”

Well Steve we have enjoyed the long great trip it’s been….. thank you so much Smile You were appreciated and always will be.

I’m waiting on my million dollar VC investment as we speak. I just don’t think any VCs know I’m waiting. 😉

EventDV will definitely be missed.
