In January 1995 the first one came out edition of TV and Video, a magazine published at that time by CCIP, a joint venture between Carvajal group to which today we belong and Coast Publishing.
Far away was still the idea of having a portal with the same name, a newsletter electronic and the respect that many show us today advertisers and readers.
The television industry and video has evolved and changed significantly in these ten years. However, if the issues we addressed are analyzed. in our first editions, it is evident that progress it has been quite linear and that the technological issues have not changed a lot. These are kept more or less within a same rank.
For example, go from tape to disk? was the title of one of the articles in 1995. The author advocated the use of hybrid systems editing for both tape and tape benefits disk. It is curious that we are still talking about operations without tape, instead of taking them for granted. Another article, signed by Tony Harcourt of Kodak, defended the power of the film as a means of acquisition, preservation and projection of images. Already, in 1995, the film versus video debate had begun, which even today with other cards on the table continues in effect.
The magazine has suffered a couple of face-lifts, as can be seen in the collection that appears on our cover. Graphic renewal is necessary from time to time as the designs go out of fashion and are sought after fresh presentations. In addition, some years ago we had to remove the & a TV & Video to replace it by the and of the traditional alphabet in order to achieve a tuning with the URL of our portal (www.tvyvideo.com), since Internet addresses do not support such characters.
Throughout this year we will celebrate our tenth anniversary. In this edition, you we have asked Claudia Liévano, first editorial director headline of the publication in 1995, to write to us about the television of that time and today. In other editions we will see the evolution of events like NAB, the changes in the how to operate television and cable channels, and progress in other aspects of the industry during these ten years.
Our intention is to continue offering information services to the television and video for at least ten more years.
