Short Film With xh-a1

My brother and I just shot a little short with the xh-a1 and we had to match some of the footage with some older dv stuff (vx-2000). The matching wasn't bad for youtube quality. The canon stuff was at 24f.

Heres the video.

You should upload a full res version so we can see the camera's capabilities!

Re: Lulu

Thanks for the kind comments guys. Estebe, I'll get around to uploading a higher res version - it's much easier to see the difference between the DV and HDV obviously. Kevin, Lulu has that effect on people hehe ...

That is some creative stuff! I liked it a lot and the voice over was perfect. I especially liked the fan part(went well with the music).

lol, I have a dog named Lulu as well. She is stupid, hence the name. I rather have the dog in your video.

Daniel - I'm TOTALLY in love!

This is exactly why I am in this business. Not for the adaptors. Not for the HD. Not for the . . . but to tell stories. Simple stories that move, excite, create humour and generally add something to our all too short human passing.

Daniel - THANK you. Thank you very much. And a big paw of friendship to Mistress Lulu! - I'm totally besotted.

I especially liked the creativity of the dream sequence. Lulu is an awesome actress.
