Re: Time to show you a videoI guess!
I think most people in this forum feel your low-light pain, regardless of what camera they're using! But it's sort of funny -- if Mk3s and C300s didn't exist, maybe everyone would be content with...

Re: Time to show you a videoI guess!
Well, one thing I often think to myself... your mileage will definitely vary... 5.6 is a good place to be for cinematography in general. Doesn't make focusing crazy, and gives you room to open up the...

Re: Time to show you a videoI guess!
Some nice compositions in there -- for instance, I liked the slider shot on the guests' feet, and the bride with palm outstretched during the photoshoot.
Got a feeling that some of the focus that...

Re: Live streaming overseas
Thanks for the helpful links! I think the whole idea of broadcasting weddings so that anyone, anywhere, with a mobile phone, can be watching at the same time, is kind of exciting.
One thing I'm...

Live streaming overseas
This one's new for me. Bride would like wedding streamed live overseas for relatives who can't be present.
Now, I'm able to live stream over the net. Every iPhone can do that. But what if she...

Re: Places one aches after a shoot
Snacks I take range from borderline healthy to outright junk. Sort of half-hearted gesturings towards health without properly committing.

Re: 9 months to get to this wedding!
Loved the steadicam stuff -- epic exterior shots in particular. That steadicam coverage you got when the bridal party entered reception possibly peed the photographer off, but I'm glad you captured...

Places one aches after a shoot
I'm quite fond of lists, so here's another one.
1. Main place I ache is in my left thumb. Why? Opening and closing the locks on the monopod the entire day, as well as often straining the thumb...

Product or art?
Quick thought/question: To what extent can one really guarantee consistency to a client? Can a wedding video ever really be a consistent McDonald's-like product?

Re: Bride and Groom alone time - props?
What sorts of props were you thinking of?
I can recall photographers taking such (corny) things as: a giant balloon and an enormous "&" sign for the couple to hold. Maybe this could work for video...

I think this whole thread is brilliant. Maybe it should be a sticky. Some great ideas on how to get good sound.
Noa, one trick I use is to split the RCA out from the DJ's mixer into two channels...
