I don't even like hard alcohol, but I'm now in the mood for a shot of that tequila!

Wait a minute. The HC1 is a consumer camera using CMOS that has really bad rolling shutter issues and HDV is lousy for fast action! You can't shoot action on a consumer HDV CMOS camera! Blasphemy!

I didn't see a single artifact of rolling shutter or compression. If they were present, they weren't noticeable. I don't think anyone can argue that this footage wasn't fast action. If shots like this can be done on a consumer HDV camera, there is no argument about HDV being good enough. All I noticed is fast action and the good color I associate with CMOS and HDV.

Bottle Spuzz -
 

We did this for a 24 hour film festival - hope you like it

http://studentpages.scad.edu/~aholme...LE%20SPUZZ.mov

good job. One thing that stood out, and it's a nitpick, is when he drops the bottle in the kitchen, we hear it, but we don't see him drop it, nor see it his the ground, so it's a little odd. Nothing major though.
Was that the Kroger in Savannah?

Nice job, was intersting to watch. Yeah the same old subjects, but nicley done mate.

Thanks. ;)

I was beginning to think I blacklisted from getting any feedback. ;)

Excellent! Yes I really liked it. I didn't notice the bottle thing as being..... noticable. What I did notice were the titles - very professional looking. Sometimes the titles can be the undoing of a perfectly watchable feature,but yours were very good.

I'd say 8/10

Thank you Marcus.

I agree - sincerity sells better in my opinion!

It occured to me that I should perhaps explain that this was originally to be shown to a group of people that are already familiar with the work of the charity, hence there are no introductions as to who people are, where they are, which school etc.

hey thanks guys - Sean are you attending SCAD by any chance?
thanks for the feedback!

HVX200, mini35, zeiss HS lenses!
 

here are a few stills from our latest feature film, featuring the stuff in the topic technically...

we had a 18mm, 25mm, 35mm, 50mm and 85mm zeiss HS with t1.3

we still had to lit a lot since the p+s takes so much light... and i was very unsatisfied with the achromat on the mini35 although its supposed to be a hard mount it created very ugly side-defocus.. yuck! we had to shoot with aperture 4.0 on the camera so the whole gg was sharp.

well, comments welcome!

ps: pics not cc'ed yet.

I use a wordpress blog and blip.tv posts, which works well. I have subscribers set up via feedburner

still trying to work out how to make a buck out of it though!!

Get In Shut Up AND HOLD ON!!!!
 

A video I made some time ago for my Father-in-laws website for promoting the sport and the webpage he has!

Hi Mark,
funny I saw your clip on lonelyplanet.tv last week .
I enjoy your site and will be a regular visitor. Your project remind me of http://vagabonding.com/ , you should have a look.
Keep the good work and please let us know about the specific of your gear and some of your technics.

I saw it and you on the Sci-Fi channel. Their website is not really loading for me, but I happened to be able to catch it on TV. I felt the drama and really liked the scenes establishing the control "Arphid" (SP?) had over society. On the other hand, I laughed inappropriately when the hero threw off the attacker and looked up and yelled in celebration. It sounded like he was gargling which I found quite humorous. Congratulations for getting some national attention!

Being an A&P aircraft technician I thought I would share what its like to be on an observation flight on a Cessna 172. The first link is to download the file and not suffer any recompression. It's about 20 MB. The second link is a youtube.com link pick your poison.

Raising the Bar 2 - Trailer
 

Thanks to everyone who commented on my earlier workout clip from my bodybuilding documentary Raising the Bar 2. With your suggestions I definitely improved upon it.

Now, here it is, the trailer for the completed RTB2! The DVDs will be available shortly, but in the meantime I would like to know your opinions as to the effectiveness of this trailer.

Thanks,

Thanks. What was happening was that he was having flashbacks at the brink of defeat and it gave him the power to over come Arphid and throw him off. So that scream was like a hiyaaaa in karate or something similar. It was supposed to be a burst of power he was feeling. I know its a little disjointed but we had 3 weeks to do it working day jobs and it had to be 6 minutes long so it was hard to get everything in. We plan on trying a longer version some time this year thats more put together and no background effects.

I like it well done. The audio seems a bit poor but that could be a product of Youtube encoding.

Very nice black and white - what camera did you use? How did you get the rich mono look?

I shot the entire video with the Panasonic AG-DVC30. The image is a mix between scene file settings and a little tweaking in post. I use FCE and just used a few image control filters.

Air - A Documentary
 

A documentary on the man responsible for the root of all life and prosperity. Air, we breathe him, we rely on him, we take him for granted! Hear his side of the story tonight.

In this mockumentary me and and my friends tried to attack the terrible cliches of news report interviews and at the same time emphasize that they really don't care about who they are reporting about or what they're saying during the interview.

That, or 2 kids were rushed to find a funny idea for a mock documentary for their film class in high school.

Your call.

Hi Mike,

entering the 3rd dimension is magic - you brought a strong reminder of this to my computer. :-)

Beautiful movie - I really enjoyed it!

Regards,

Oliver

Youtube is what it is...we do that best that we can do until something better comes along.

Thanks for the kind words. I hope to post more. Right now I have no camcorder since I sold it to go HD. Now I'm in a debate on what to invest in. Thanks again.

"Average Joe" Feature Assembly Edit Progress
 

It's been long enough since I started, I'm still not finished by any stretch of the imagination, but here's proof that it's coming along...Just an assembly edit so far, 45 mins, placards for the scenes I haven't gotten to yet (it contains spoilers if you want to see just the finished product):

http://www.yafiunderground.com/Video/AJ-2007-05-25.mov

it requires quicktime...it's compressed with h.264 codec. it's 34Mb or so

I haven't put together all of the off screen voice stuff yet...and other stuff you can see the recording setup for doing VO work. Painfully rough...nothing to critique here yet. Keep in mind it had a budget of $250 (mostly tape stock for the 50 tapes it took to shoot it, the rest was crepe hair and bottled water)

Play the drinking game (maybe a shiner bock ;) )...everytime Joe has a fake beard take a drink...he shaved in the middle of the shoot and we had to replace his beard, so half the time it's real, half the time it's fake.

Grayton Beach
 

Here is a little montage of shots I put together while vacationing at Grayton beach last week. Grayton beach is a small community located in the panhandle of Florida west of Panama City. Hope you enjoy it. Best viewed in half or original screen size.
