New 35mm Adapter & A great looking new short film
 

Hi there, I'm not sure if my design is one that is readily in use. I built it many months ago. It is motorised, fairly quiet and not particularly complicated to fabricate. I recently tested it for my new short, please take a look:

Anyone who is interested in knowing more, please feel free to email me.

Many thanks, Nick

i downloaded the bigger file and once the russian started talking it glitched and all i could get was audio after that...

Problem fixed in 20 mins
 

Sorry about that, i am reuploading the file, a fresh, working one will be on the server in about 20 mins.

Thankyou for your patience.

damn... I can not get it work :(

Should be fixed in half an hour
 

Sorry and thanks for your patience.

Looks great! :)

Nice use of lighting. From the screengrabs it looks like you used an XL1s?

I had problems too, same point. I'll try downloading again tomorrow.

Failing me at 2:58, fresh downloaded mov player...

At Last Its Fixed!
 

iTS FIXED AND READY FOR DOWNLOAD NOW.

I didn't realise I had used all my webpace, doh!! and they have been deleting chunks as i upload.

Sorry, thanks for letting me know

That looks awesome! Mind divulging your construction method details etc?

Incredible
 

Nick,
The movie was AWESOME. Please share your design.

Beautiful images. Job well done.

Sorry, there is another thread, where I have discussed the design:

http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthrea...572#post328572

Any chance of getting a couple shots of the inner workings?
Also, what kind of lighting were you using? What is the lens?

Overall this was great piece.

Some comments (Just my opinion! so please dont take offense)

* Maybe the web compression degraded the orginal resultion, but the movie seemed to lack a lot of resolution/sharpness (was the softness due to the adaptor?).

*could be my CRT display (PC monitor, UK/) but the blacks seemed milky, perhaps its just my taste , i would personnaly like it a litter more contrasty.

Other than that, what i really liked:

no vignating/hotspot, loss of light seems minimal considering that the shot was practically in the dark!

Also was it XL1 or XL2 and what other setup deatails can you give please (lens, frame mode, etc)
