View Full Version : Flying my pilot for the first time properly!

Finally got around to use my Pilot for my friends music video.
We went for the 'warehouse' look, so bare lights and no matte-box. Also went for the 'loose look'.
My friend edited it with my help and left in a couple of shots that perhaps I'd have not used, but he is the client so...!
Shot on Sony EX-1, edited on Vegas 11 Pro with various filters for the look he required.
Any critique appreciated!

Nice.
How many takes did you have?

Steadicam work is ok for first job, but I really don't like the lighting. The audio is good though.

Thanks!
Just 7 takes. The band played live over playback of the version they recorded for release.
Then just sync'd and chose the right takes and dropped in the release audio.

The lighting was a creative choice by the band, they wanted a hard light look.
