The Proposal

Felipe Rojas · May 17th, 2010, 05:58 AM

Spring in the south is now in full swing. Landscapes and gardens all around Atlanta and its surrounding counties are full and lush. There has been a significant amount of rainfall this season and the colors are at their peak.

Beautiful photography, stunning locations. For what it is, it's great.

Gary, I like your film very much; thank you for sharing. Felipe

Nice tracking and jib shots Felipe.
Not a fan of the 5D but it does have a really nice colour / tonal quality to it I must admit.

Hello Felipe

It is a beautiful film Felipe. Carefully filmed and edited very nicely, the sound track suits it will. What I meant to say above was your 'embed' settings on Vimeo. The day

Steve,
Thansk for your comments; yes I understand, and agree with you to some degree; I am considering getting and EX1 to complement the limitations I have.
Thanks,
Felipe

Filipe, that was stunning.

I don't want to turn this into a camera debate, but I have the 7D and an EX3 and there's no way an EX1/3 can come close to that. I realize for video production the DSLRs are limited but who cares when you can produce something as beautiful as that, for about a third of the cost no less.

You are incredibly lucky to be able to experience such a wonderful location first hand and I (we) am lucky that you could capture it as well as you have and shared it with the rest of us.

Thanks. I enjoyed it.

Felipe... great work.. Very beautiful. I am still trying to figure out why our 5D's get knocked so much. Your work here is proof of the greatness of these Canon cameras.

Steve Phillipps · May 29th, 2010, 12:37 AM

It gets knocked due to massive aliasing and a poor coded, plus operational issues. That's not to say you can't do good things with it if you're careful.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your nice comments; keep in mind that VDSRL is a new thing, and the 5d has been the Pioneer on this modality. I can still remember the days when attepmpting to do the same thing with a Super-8 Chinon and lots of money in film and processing; and still didn't even come close to waht we can do today with these marverlous machines. Having said that, desite the limitations, I like the 5d very much and the things I can do with it. Thanks again for your positive feedback.

Hi Chuck,
Thank you so much for your nice words about the film; I particularly like it when people use the word beautiful, it assures me then that they got what I wanted to convey; so thank you very much for stopping by and watching my video.

Now, regarding the camera and the location; I think they are the real starts here, I just happened to be there...
