Dan

wow, glen, that was very beautiful. nice sound mix. congratulations.

Thank you kindly. I think all the top winners had fantastic work...it was an honor to be up there with them.

well done
 

Glenn I am truly happy that you got 1st place...
You said for that wedding you used a monopod, and everything else was handheld... very smooth I especially like the first 5secs.

One question, to create something similar, which of Von larken's training tapes
should I start off with?

Thanks Dante. To create something similar in what regard- camera moves? Then it's an easy answer with the "Art of Moving Camera Techniques". It'll help out greatly with learning the artistic hand-held shots.

Yeah as far as camera moves... I was really admiring how steady the beginning shot was looked like you held it with both hands at the sides, and the shot coming over the candle looked like you were using the monopod. One question though what song did you use in the background?

Glen that is a beautiful piece of cinematic poetry. Congrats on the top slot.

Trouble with your sited source though, I search amazon dot com or google for "Art of Moving Camera Techniques" I get this thread and that's it. Lil' help here.

This is what Glen is referring to:

I like the first sample verrrrrrrry clean especially the first 2mins

Both those shots were hand held. The mono shots were the really high ones- reveal around the tree at the park, and down from the chandaleir. Song was from Road To Perdition.
