New Interview shot w/ LEX + Canon A1 at DVinfo.net

Tim Altonen · September 24th, 2008, 03:13 PM

Here is the link to an interview I recently shot using the Letus Extreme and my Canon XH-A1.
DWHITEINTERVIEWFIXED.mp4

I used Nikon E-Series Lenses on this, a 28mm 2.8 , a 50mm 1.8, and a 70-200mm 4 Zoom lens. Please, any criticism would be very appreciated, I am relatively new to the 35mm world and could use some pointers. Also, I edited this in Vegas Pro 8.0, and the concert footage was shot at 24F in HDV, while the interview was shot at 30F in SD, they seemed to mix fine. Thanks,
~Tim

Looks pretty good but honestly, I couldn't watch it for more than a minute or so. The pixelation using google video is just horrible. Upload a high-rez to Vimeo if you could. Does a much better job and would alleviate the noise issues with poor video quality.

Looks a lot better Tim, but still too much compression (or the wrong sort of compression). And a lot of aliasing. I'm sure your master is much cleaner.

Compression and uploading to the net are not exactly my strong points. Could anyone direct me to a good place to learn more? Thanks

You can find help about compression for Vimeo on this page: Compression !!! It works fine for me. Good Luck.
