Hi from Norway to everybody! :-)
First of all I have to thank you all for sharing so much interesting stuff in this great community :-)
The reaon why I ended up here is because I resently bought a old Canon XL1 camera and I wanted to find out all there is to know about this great camera. That's how I discovered the XL1 watchdog and ended up here ;-)
I am just a newbee with no ambitions of making it big in the industry. Video/film making is just an growing interest on a personal level for me. Until now I've just made some home movies of birthday parties, weddings, vacations and other private happenings... that kind of stuff... using my "terrible" Canon MV700i and I've edited them in Pinnacle Studio and resently in Adobe Premiere. As my interest is growing, I've found the limitations of the MV700i to anoying. Thats why I desided to buy an old XL1.
Even without any big ambitions, I do have a few ideas for some short movies that I really want to make one time in the future, just for fun. But I still have to learn some more basics first. So if anyone of you more experienced guys know of any really great books/articles that is a "must read" before making a "movie", I will really apreciate if you tell me about it :-) Especially books/articles about how to lighten scenes will be really apreciated :-)
I'm willing and learning... Living is learning... and I'm learning more and more every day... :-)
Thanks, and the best of luck to all of you ;-)
ciao
By the way; anyone from Norway in here?
