Re: My top samples so far – critiques?
I'll take a look at some more examples; there are certainly films I've seen that I would love to aspire to after more practice. Do you have any that you know of off the top of your head that also...

Re: My top samples so far – critiques?
Robert- great feedback, and thanks for taking the time to watch one of my videos. I'll certainly take all of this into consideration as I shoot and edit future pieces.
So for the pacing, do you...

Re: How much of your video is chronological?
I keep all my videos pretty much completely chronological. Even the highlight reel. It just makes it easier for me to tell the story, especially since I haven't done an event yet that has any sort of...

Re: How to promote yourself to corporate clients?
Thanks. I'll try and think about what I can put into a demo reel, that doesn't look totally wedding-ish. Granted I do want to still promote myself for wedding work, but I don't want to look like it's...

Re: First wedding with XA20
Hey Tim- I'm considering my cam options as I want to think about moving away from dSLR as a B-cam (use it for more like a C-cam) for a lot of shots, and it's too hard to match to my Canon XF100. I'm...

Re: Inexpensive match for XF100?
I've found the same thing, but I'm far from a color expert. The 60D tends to be much warmer and more "cinema-like", and the XF100 a bit cooler and "video-like". Although the XF's codec has the...

Re: Inexpensive match for XF100?
That's good to know. As "amateurish" as it would look to people who don't know\ any better, I'm much more likely to pick up an $800 camera than a $2,000 one. :-)
I know that the footage on the...

Re: Inexpensive match for XF100?
Would any of Canon's higher-end consumer offerings match up well? I know it wouldn't be MXF codecs, but don't need the professional features like XLR on a secondary camera.

Inexpensive match for XF100?
So I've shot 5 weddings so far on my setup, which is a perpetually borrowed XF100 A-cam paired with a refurbed 60D B-cam. While the 60D is fine for getting those artistic macro shots and depth of...

Re: How are others presenting their long-forms?
That's pretty much what I do, but I seem to be spending way too much time on it. For one thing, I tend to remove a lot of the footage because I'm a lousy shooter and half of it is garbage. Also, I...

Re: How are others presenting their long-forms?
No they won't be, and I've taken that into consideration. I guess maybe I'm too worried about the .0001% chance that a client will upload their 2 hour video publicly and I will get sued.
Maybe I...
