30:Second Spot / Green Screen on EX1

James Huenergardt · November 13th, 2008, 01:55 PM

Here is a 30:Second spot I did for a Realtor.

I shot 1080 30p HQ on a green screen and composited in AE using Keylight 1.2 with a custom background created using Particular and a shape I drew in Illustrator.

The key was easy and clean.

Very slick! Everything looks super. Perhaps edit could be a bit tighter so as to pace the words more naturally, or am I reading too much into it?

Erik Phairas · November 13th, 2008, 06:24 PM

clean screen is what you should call it.. nice!

Looks good

Yes Ali, my edits could be a bit tighter I think. At least my wife tells me so and I think so too.

Just have to decide if I want to re-do it.

I think all the different angles made it cheesy. Especially the one where he looks up. Would've been more sincere in a single take.

A single take, in my opinion, would not be as visually appealing IF you don't zoom in/out between phrases.

Also, a single take is much more difficult to pull off with someone who is not an actor and not reading a teleprompter.

I agree, the delivery could have been better, but he was very happy with the result and that's what counts.

forget the single take,
looks PERFECT! what's the audio setup?

Oktava MC012 Film Edition mic on a boom pole directly into my EX1.
