No, they weren't green-screened. The exposure on the exteriors can be mainly attributed to three things: a polarization filter, the XL2's cine settings, and bringing the highlights down in post. The biggest of these things by far is the polarization filter.

Probably the best results with XL2 i have seen so far on this website.
Congratulations.

It is really great for me to see such results with an XL2 (which i will rent in 2 weeks). Now i know that i must use polarization filter ;-)
Bytheway: which brand did you used ?


I'm still confused if i'll buy an XL2 or wait for the HVX200...

Keep your good work :-)

Jon-

Thanks. I used a Tiffen 4x4 circular polarizer with the Chrosziel mattebox. And although the HVX is very exciting, it's still five months away. I'd say go with the XL2 if you're shooting stuff now.

how did you record the audio by the way. I was just looking for more footage made with xl2 and xl2's. Thanks.

We used an Azden boom mic and a Shure lavalier system, both tied in via XLR to the camera.
