Bride/Groom Prep (Awkward?)
So how do handle the Bride/Groom prep? Do you talk with them before hand about certain shots? Do you hang out for a few minutes and fake "special parts"? Do you sit in a corner like a fly and try...

Re: New Canon XA25, XA20 and HF G30 camcorders
If you find auto WB acceptable for outdoors, then the button could work for you. Set the custom to the indoor shoot and press it when leaving the building to let auto take over outside. This only...

Re: My Second Wedding Film
Well done. I do think the rays were a bit much, but I enjoyed the video. However, I think you will have to work pretty hard to improve with each shoot, as your one in May was very impressive.

Re: If I go FF, will f2.8 be fast enough?
I loved my 50 1.4 in photography, and still love it for video. I use that on my VG30 more than the stock lens. I do not always run it wide open though. I had a 24-70 2.8 on the DSLR during a very...

Camera settings for a new flyer
I am a new blackbird owner and I am trying to nail down the camera settings. Do you normally shoot pretty wide? How wide? I am solo, so focus is on me. What is the best approach? I know there is...

Re: New Canon XA25, XA20 and HF G30 camcorders
Alright. I do understand why you might need to change the settings when changing angles, but I normally would stop recording while I change positions. It could make lining things up in the NLE much...

Re: New Canon XA25, XA20 and HF G30 camcorders
Pardon my ignorance, as I always want to learn. Why is a feature to change white balance while recording so important? What are you recording that requires it. I have never had the desire to change...

What's so great about Canon DSLRs?
I am new to wedding videography, but have worked in image capture and editing for a while. I focused more on photography and leaned heavily toward Nikon as I loved the lenses. Being interested in the...

Re: please critique this wedding films
I agree with Noa both regarding the visuals and the audio. Just because StillMotion used bad audio doesn't mean the rest of us should. The time lapse was impressive...and who rode in the chopper for...

Re: Just how good is the Go Pro 3?
Wow. Turns out the venue was even darker than I expected! I didn't even put up the Hero3 as my VG30 was struggling. I did try the GoPro on a stick idea mentioned earlier in the thread by Pete once...

Re: Just how good is the Go Pro 3?
Pete, I was going to tell you about the Black Ed. but Daniel beat me to it. I must say that I like your idea though. That monopod shot could look like a crane.

Re: Just how good is the Go Pro 3?
