Made a tinfoil raincover and shot a little cinematography test today. 720P WMV Video.

Remarkable quality. The more I see footage the more amazed I am.

Fergus Anderson · May 12th, 2007, 03:07 AM

Solomon I am really impressed with this - awesome stuff!!

How did you construct a cover for the cam? Have you got a pic of it?

Did you use Vegas for the slow mo from 60i?

Did you colour correct any of it/how did you get the effect witht he headlights?

How did you steady the cam? was it all handheld or did you use a steadicam?

What settings did you use when recording? Did you use cine mode? If not could you explain any other manual settings? - shutter speed, contrast, 24p?

Thanks

I am really impressed - looks great! Just velocity to 50% in vegas or how did you make the slowmotion sequence. Did you use the cinemode?

Amazing!

I love the shots, the color, the transitions and the music.
Just beautifully put together :D

Hope to see more soon...

This makes me want to:

A Sell my HD100
B Buy a Canon A1 for work
C Use the remaining money to buy an HV20 for PLAY!!!

Seriously though. Looks amazing. How do you did the color correction? What way were things swung? Great work.

Ben Troxell · May 12th, 2007, 09:45 AM

Wow, i don't know what to say. That was epic. Very nice job!

Ron Lemming · May 12th, 2007, 10:06 AM

Wow.. amazing. Apart from being the most beautiful footage I have seen from the HV20 so far, that was also the most stable footage I have seen from the HV20 so far. I can't see any rolling shutter distortion anywhere in your footage. How did you stabilize it? What's your secret?

Glenn Thomas · May 12th, 2007, 10:15 AM

Yes, very nicely done! Great colour correction too.

Joe Marques · May 12th, 2007, 10:40 AM

Outstanding. Love the tonality and overall look. Well done. Hope to hear more on how you did it.

Solomon Chase · May 12th, 2007, 11:44 AM

Sorry I forgot to post my settings!

No steadicam etc.. Just a tripod. There is some rolling shutter artifacts if you look for them. Mainly the lightning.

My Camera Settings:
Shutter Priority Mode
Shutter Speed: 100
Exposure Locked: -2

Custom HV20 Settings
Col. Depth -1
Sharpness -1
Contrast -1
Brightness -1

Color Correction:
Color Curves (more yellow in highlights)

Slow motion was done with vegas. :)
