Re: Need recommendation for gimbal
Ha--thank you Michael but I did say "small/lightweight gimbal"--! I think the M5 is overkill for this particular application.
Slavik, thank you for your suggestion as it was interesting looking...

Re: Test shoot with light meter and c-log
Hi Bob:
I have only shot a couple of times with the Canons and it's been a couple of years, so I don't have any specific advice for you, I'm afraid. I don't judge exposure primarily from log...

Re: Need recommendation for gimbal
Slavik: If you mount the Helix Jr onto a Steadicam or tripod by screwing directly into the base, isn't this defeating the tilt mechanism? I see they have a bracket available that spans the handles...

Hi: helping a friend with a really interesting type of shot for a TV pilot. They are looking to simulate a drone POV by putting a Blackmagic camera on an extension post on a Steadicam, getting the...

Re: Test shoot with light meter and c-log
Hi Rob:
I don't use histograms--there was that era with the DSLR's in 2010'ish where that entered into my realm by necessity but the last time one came up on a monitor, I was sort of thrown as I...

Re: Test shoot with light meter and c-log
My question would be: did you find the light meter any more useful than using the waveform in this scenario? I wouldn't think so. If you know where you like to peg the skin tones on the WF, there...

Re: Talk to me about Steadicams.

If you are still having trouble, perhaps the solution may be to post a video showing your steps and what isn't working, and presumably someone may be able to suss out where you are going...

Re: Heavily considering these lights.
7" is crazy low for shooting unless people will always be seated (interviews etc). I shot a series last year in an abandoned school and was brutalized by the teacher's lounge set which was closer to...

Re: Heavily considering these lights.
Strip lights have an interesting effect on faces. They are soft lights in one axis (width) but relatively hard in the other (height). So you will get wrap around a face and a relatively soft nose...

Re: Grease Live, 1/24 shutter speed...
It appeared to me that all of the cameras were set this way, so that must have been a choice (perhaps to gain a stop?). I didn't agree with it either. I could imagine a scenario where there was some...

Re: Old HV20 returns as a working prop!
This episode of Teachers airs tonight on TVLand at 10:30/9:30c. It's probably one of the best episodes of the season, other than having the HV20 appear in it!

Re: What is CRAFT?
