Olá de Portugal

Gostei muito do plano em que fazes um Dolly a acompanhar o bandido.
Como fizeste? Com steadicam ou com carro de pneumáticos??

Abraço

Although it could have been alot shorter - it was fun film and you could see that youve had fun making it with the inclusion of those special effects so yeh not bad. not bad at all.

That looks beautiful. Completely professional. The only drawback is the audio. The dialog sounds muffled and it's drowned out by the rain sound. I'm no audio guy, but I'd guess you should record some clean dialog, maybe outside in a quiet area to get it to sound natural and not dubbed, and then dial in some of the rain audio til it sounds natural, while still keeping the dialog as the dominant sound. Anyone who knows more about sound, feel free to tell me I'm completely wrong though.

XH-A1 portrait of a place promo
 

Thought I would post this to see what sort of feedback people might have. It is the last and most scenic part of a promotional video I shot and edited for White Squall Paddling Center in Parry Sound, Ontario. In particular this segment (#6) shows the town of Parry Sound and some of the sights a tourist to the area could expect to experience.

Everything was shot with my A1 and a Manfrotto 503/531 combo. Editing was done in Vegas 7 and the music I composed and recorded with Steinberg Nuendo.

In total there are 5 other segments giving detail about Whitesqualls operations/course/trips/store locations etc, with interviews of the owners and staff. I will post more links if anyone is interested.

Nature - Beartooth Pass Montana - XH-A1
 

Just thought I would post this for people to look at. I find it nice and relaxing. Parts of it are hand held so there is some shaking, I did find some nice rocks to use from time to time though :)

XH-A1 Oregon Mountain Cruise 2007
 

Put together a short video of the recent Oregon Mountain Cruise held in Joseph each year with a wide variety of cars from all over the west.

Here's the correct link: http://www.feister-dills-images.com/samples.html

Thanks for that...I'm using Firefox and the link worked for it, but forgot to check using IE and of course, that didn't work.

Really nice shots set to good music. For my taste I would liked to have seen it be shorter, perhaps about 2 minutes long because some parts were a little repetative. Also some more car interior and motor shots would have been nice. Also some shots from inside while driving down the road. These are just suggestions to consider. I liked it very much. Also nice flash compression.

Regards,

I liked the video a lot. I only thought one of the shaky shots took away from the relaxed feel. Thought the music was great for it. Where did you get the music from? I watched it on full screen mode off your site and thought it looked pretty good, but I'm sure the full res looks better.

Yeah, I flew up there for the weekend for a family reunion and only took 2 carry on bags which I could not fit my tripod in... as for the music, I got that song from http://www.shockwave-sound.com.

I film paintball... in HD...
 

Yep... paintball... the "sport"... where we shoot little .68 caliber balls at 200mph and 15-20 balls per second... yes... per second... although I don't really consider it a sport, it's hard to understand but I've been playing for 6 years and there's nothing really like it... it's not so much the equipment we use or how we play... it's just the feeling that when you're at a field playing or even watching, you're in a completely different place. You honestly forget about everything that has been happening in your life, good or bad. Nothing else matters, and the only people that really understand it are the ones that are out there every weekend playing... there's nothing else like it...

Now that I'm done with that speech, I'll show you guys some stuff...

First videos were shot with a $25 tripod and $700 Canon HV10... pretty amazing camera for the money...

** Explicit Language... probably ** (I have no clue what videos or what songs do have language, but I'm 99% sure it's there)

Sweet 7 Video... it was raining... a lot (Washington weather)
http://www.lousyheros.com/videos/sweethq.wmv Pretty compressed unfortunately

Sweet 7 Video 2...
http://www.lousyheros.com/videos/sweet72hq.wmv

Now these were shot with an HDR-FX7 and 501HDV Manfrotto Pod (Forgot which legs)... My new setup :)

This is the "Smooth" slow motion feature, unfortunately it's at 1/4 the normal HD resolution
http://www.lousyheros.com/videos/xpslslo.wmv

This is a 2minute clip of some shots thrown together, I have 10 tapes of footage to go through so this is just the start
http://www.lousyheros.com/videos/xpslpat.wmv
*** My favorite stuff so far... ***

The 2 HDR-FX7 videos were not edited as much as the other ones, they were just to show off the new camera...

I have more videos... some aren't worth posting but if you want more I'll see what I can find

Yes both cameras have been shot, in the lense (with UV Filter ontop) and in the front/sides... both work fine... the HV10 had rain damage through the microphone ontop which canon fixed, and the HDR-FX7's tripod fell over and the LCD hinge cracked, sending that to Sony tomorrow :) Paintballs are brittle enough that they don't do any damage...

You have posted 300megs clips! that's a bit large for my internet account, (Here we are limited in bandwidth) therefore I just looked at one of the fx7 samples.
Must say the image lookes pretty amazing, at first it looked like a digital animation film, really sharp and very nice colours. I heared that the fx7 is not so good in low light, a problem more hd cams have. If it were good in lowlight I even would have bought it as a "weddingcam", it looks quite similar to a vx2100 which I use now, only my vx can't produce images like this.

When your fx7 fell, was it unattended? you take a lot of risk which such camera's in those conditions, I would never go in there unless I had a special cover for the camera and something that I could put in front of the lens.
Also for rainy conditions you have special covers which keep the camera dry.

Rainy conditions I used cardboard and duct-tape, I bought a Kata cover for the FX7 which has already been shot multiple times, does a good job.

Then you just get a couple UV filters, 1 for the camera and then an extra as a backup in-case the other one breaks... just a risk you take with filming paintball... the cameras stand direct impacts just fine, I caught one on the inside of the lenshood which sprayed on the filter, but no direct hits on the lens of either camera.

If you want smaller files, just replace the "H" with an "M" I posted the 1280 x 720 files, but I have 720 x 408 uploaded which are half the file size or less...

Those are the "high" quality files... if you want "medium" quality... just replace M in the filename... I have 30something vidoes on there...

720p60 actually...

Shot with an HDR-HC7 on manual settings on a Manfrotto 190XB tripod with a 701RC2 head.

If you can't play the video in the player, you should press the download button next to the play button in the viewer box before you start the video.

"The Scrobax's" - New DVX100a Short
 

Are you on drugs? Seriously. Keep taking the medication.

I must admit it made me laugh just by virtue of its complete inanity. What the hell is going on. Genius !!!. However, although I loved the ridiculousness of it all and laughed my socks off, the film wasn't the best representation of what the dvx is capable of. The audio was pretty poor and you need to invest in some lighting (youtube doesn't help).

Long Beach, BC and Tofino in 1080p
 

http://stage6.divx.com/user/jackvanc...nset-(1080p24)

No, it's not razer sharp 1080p and the source is HDV, But it's my first attempt at 1080p encoding and 60i to 24p with the pseudo motion blur famous in many films in the past.

Shot with an HDR-HC7 on a Manfrotto 701RC2 head.

As always, if it doesn't work in the player, click the download button next to the big play button before you start the video. after the download is finished, rename the file extension to .avi to view in windows media player.

Been re-doing my website. New link is: http://www.simplethoughtproductions....ntana-wyoming/

I said I wanted feedback guys, come on!

Even from an editing standpoint they're not overly interesting... leaving the Xbox live chatter is annoying, especially with music overtop...

Game footage + Music Video spliced together with a few random overlays... and a ton of blur at the beginning... I dunno what you used to edit but meh...

This forum is more for people who actually film and edit their work, not halo montages...

During my divorce years ago unreal tournament 2003 had been a very loyal companion for many nights to get rid off all the stress :D so I understand what you guys find so great about gaming and making videos about it. Only here I think it will not be that easy to find an interested audience like Joe allready pointed out.
I did however enjoyed volume 3 and 4, bringing back memories when I was blasting my enemies (they all looked like my ex ;)) to pieces. 'You bleed better then you shoot! was my favorite phraze :D
The past 2 years I rarely play a game, just now and then UT2004 but I get really beaten up by, probably guys like you, on all these gaming servers. :D

Don't get me wrong, I've probably played more games than you could imagine... I started playing computer games when I was 4 on our 386... had a 486 in my room when I was 6 with command and conquer... I'm just saying this is DVi... Digital Video Information...

There are places for Halo Montages... it isn't here...

And I never understood why it was a "montage"... everyone called their halo "videos" montages... and I've never seen a real good one, some people have made some amazing videos with UT2004 and Quake 3... and they were never called montages...never seen anything similar out of Halo...

Either way, the editing was too simple imo... I only watched #4 though...

Well, I agree with you too, I refered to "enjoying it" only to the game scenes as I allways find them fun to watch.

Does your family understand your passion?

Your Worst Boating Nightmare Possible!!
 

Here is a cut from the DVD I'm working on right now! This has to be one of the worst nightmares possible while racing a boat!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cAeQmm6FL8

Looks great Mike. Camera work is very solid, and plenty of color. Christine seems like a very compelling interview subject and makes some interesting points. It is a worthwhile story, though at times I was confused about about the relationships and whether or not she and Dave were parents themselves.

From that clip the only criticism I would offer is that the audio is a little quiet and room-y on some clips and nice and clear on others. It also seems like we (the viewer) need more context to make sense of it, but that goes without saying since it is an excerpt...

Nicely done though.

Was that planned? hahahhha ahahah

THAT is CRAZY!!! How much was the boat and did they ever get it into working condition?

Joseph

No that wasn't planned!!! Both driver and navigator were pick up in saftey boats. The water was drained out of the motor new oil and fuel were added, the boat fired right up! The boat was racing two weeks later at the next race!

Chris. Saw some of the rescue footage you posted on this before, so it was interesting to see this portion.

short boredom.
 

An intriguing little piece, with a look of student noir circa 1945. This is how we cure boredom at our house!

The making of IP: weekly video
 

We're a small group of people working on a zero-budget production, aiming to make a blockbuster-quality feature film, shot with an HV20. Are we completely insane? Maybe, you can judge for yourself by checking out our weekly 'making of' clips that start today. We're about to wrap up pre-production and we'll start shooting soon.

HOW TO LOVE: adv robot ethics
 

boredom leads to creation, i recontextualized the apple intel commercial and the postal service music video, the audio was taken from a wikihow article on how to love

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqxJD-tMH2k

You did a really nice job on this. Filmed beautifully... What camera setup did you use? It looks like a large production TV Commercial.

i just recontextualized previously shot footage from those music videos and commercials ;-)

appropriation video

Thanks its coming together finally!

I remember seeing the postal service commercial a year or two ago. That thing screamed production dollars! Nice job on re-working it.

Great Work!
 

John, I've been lurking these forums for a fews days now. I registered and now I can finally post. I am enjoying your work. It is what it is for the clients you have and I'm sure they're happy with the outcome. I read that you had an intern in NY. Great. May I suggest you send your reel to some of the Hip Hop labels here in NYC and I bet you'll start getting calls for work. Get your price list tight....if you haven't already done so and get ready to negotiate.

Overall, great work for your clients. The shorts and skits are funny as well.

My second short
 

Hey everyone,

This is my first post in this forum, mostly because i'm nervous. This is my second completed short film, my first time using someone else's script. I think it turned out decently, and the writer was pleased.

However, I am looking for some feedback from the folks here at the forum.

The sound level is really low on most of the VO, just a warning for you - might need to turn your speakers up to hear it.

Please post your comments on what you think, what could improve it, etc.
