Re: Asked to film for another company
I'm willing to bet he's just a middle man. His business is booking as many weddings as he can, then trying to find someone to do the actual work.
We have a fair number of them in the U.S. Often...

My latest - back with 4 minute short form
Sometime in the last year I got back on the short form (4-8 minute) bandwagon. Now we deliver short form, medium (15-20 minute highlight for online) that we call a wedding film, and the full length...

Re: recording Sound in a church
I'm with you, Noa. The most common for me is to dirty up the sound a bit with the feed from my on-camera shotgun mic.
My arrangement:

Ha, though at 200 feet, it wouldn't have reached.
If the flyer is at all truthful, then I have a serious problem with the shooter. Of course, even if it had been hovering at 10 feet, he can't...

Re: Drone Shot Down
Elevation is a key element, of course. If it had been flying at 200 feet, no issue. If it really is hovering, just over his deck (10 feet? 20 feet?), I think they need to enact some privacy laws. ...

Re: Magic Lantern?
I don't do RAW, because of the work flow, though it or dual ISO are great for establishing/detail shots, when you don't need the audio.

re: I'm considering buying a 70D for Weddings
If you're going to get a DSLR, would a 4K option be better at this point?

Re: Wedding - color grade and shooting style
Don't forget, different videos for different purposes (or people).
For instance, I can easily see that this would target their friends relations who really just aren't going to watch a 15 or 45...

Re: Video: First Look at Canon XC10
Curious to see how far you can push the iso.

I tried that and really didn't like it. There were always clips I missed, or better ideas. Now, I do the...
