DV Info Net - Music Video - Uncompressed HD-SDI & 35mm Lenses

This video we shot 100% uncompressed 1080P 24P.. yes, there was a Mac Pro on set regardless of where we were. Lugging generators, camera, computer and lights into remote areas certainly added an interesting element for an average 5 person crew.

The cable was an 150' HD-SDI cable, connected to a nanoConnect box and into the HDMI port on the camera. The camera was using a 35mm adpater, and shooting with Nikon lenses. I was the DP and camera op.

Vampires! Blooooood & Loooove. It's a music video!

Story conceptualized, directed and edited by Paul Michael Worth. Produced by Paul Michael Worth and myself, Chris Ruffell. I was the cinematographer and camera operator, colourist, and I did the compositing with the book in the last shots.

Nikon 50mm F1.4 :D And a zoom were the lenses I used the most. There was also an 18mm lens (borrowed) for the wide shots.

Lo-no budget production, done as a labour of love with a few generator rentals and borrowing of props and locations. (The gravestones are actually styrofoam that I cut and painted with a friend to look the way they do!)

Would like to hear what you think - cheers!
