Another Full-Res sample online
 

Ok, in the interest of avoiding work (and helping my fellow man, of course), I've uploaded another full-res 720x480 DV avi sample to my website:

Please right-click and save to your computer. I also added links to these two samples on my DVC80 page: http://www.karatemedia.com/video/dvc80.html

It's a 68 MB download. This one is a 20-second excerpt from the silent short I did with the DVC80. The lighting is better than the Marti's ad and the colors look better. The only post work was a very slight addition of an S-Curve in After Effects.

Which brings up a good point -- as a student you can get some great deals on applications like After Effects (you can also get the entire Adobe Standard Video Collection for around $500). If you haven't already, take advantage of these offers -- they'll help you make your video look that much more "finished" and yes, perhaps even "film-like" :D

thank you!!
