And thanks for your comments!

Another great episode. I really like this format, I've had a movie idea brewing for a while but I might go for seperate episodes instead, seems somehow more managable.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks a lot!
I really like this format, it takes a lot of work but you get a good monthly reward...

Best regards!

Episode 4, "A Christmas Carol", online!

Best regards!

Just caught this episode, it's my favourite so far. Great idea, reminded me of Groundhog day which is one of my favourite comedies. Nice play on the hat near the end, that made me laugh.

Thanks Sverrir, Groundhog Day is also one of my favourite movies, so this is our homage.

Glad you like it, regards!

Awesome. You're very talented.

Paul, do you have a rough number for the cost of the equipment used to film this production?

Let's see:

Panasonic GH1: €1300
Nikon lenses: 17-35mm f2.8 (€800) + 50mm f1.4 (€150) + 85mm f1.4 (€300) = €1250
Zoom H4n: €190
Rode NTG2: €240
Lighting equipment: About €300 per episode

Total: €2980 = $4200 (+ €300 per episode)

But, we already had most of the stuff before starting the series.

Best regards!

At last, here it is episode 5 of Perestroika: Fromm dusk till dawn!
This time, it was shot on a Canon 1D camera.

I hope you enjoy it, best regards and thanks for watching!
