fx1+Letus35a Short Teaser
 

Aloha,

Here is a teaser for the new Gerard Elmore short "Barry", using the Sony HDR-FX1 with Letus35a adapter and Nikon 35mm SLR prime lenses.

http://www.sandust.net/barry/Barry_Trailer.mov

We used 24mm, 28mm, 35mm, 55mm, 85mm, 105mm, and 200mm Nikon SLR lenses.

It was edited in Final Cut Pro 5 and the G Film Bleach Bypass plug-in was
used.

I am rendering a 720p version that I will upload when ready to:

Erm Dustin, it was rather cool, but it seems that the in the trailer at least, you may need to crop or zoom in a little more, because I can see the edges!!

:)

I would love to see the shot breakdown with the different lenses...

Yea, I am waiting for everything to be finished before we blow it up 10% to hide the sides of the ground glass.

Leo,

Here are the lenses from memory.

24mm - open from above
55mm - medium of Barry cutting coke
85mm - CU of barry snorting
cut back and forth between those two for a couple cuts
105mm - rack to car driving up
35mm - Barry walking into focus to look out the window
105mm - people getting out of car
55mm - Barry looking out window
85mm - putting coke on table
105mm - holding hands and walking
85mm - pouring out coke
105mm - opening door
105mm - knocking
55mm - Barry telling them to come in

I am pretty sure that is which lens was used for each shot. We shot everything at f4 - f1.2, which made some things difficult. I think I need to find a good fast 20mm lens so I can get a little more DoF at f4.

Hopefully that helps.

that was so nice
 

that was really well done

The footage looks great, and not just from the 35mm. Nice shot composition for the interiors. I got the FX1, and I can't wait to try it with a 35mm adapter. (I don't have that many lenses though... :) )

Nice one man
 

Looks good Dustin..
love the CC.. and the rustic( not polishedness of it all as times like those are less than polished.. ) look forward to the film..

keep posting
