Peter, Super Deluxe allows you to embed the video, but I don't know anything about how that works. Sorry I don't have any further info.

Thanks for checking it out.

More Cowbell Pictures
 
I've just finished (for the most part) creating my first web site!

I've also uploaded my 2 short films to it. Yes, I only have 2 under my belt. :)
I'm hoping to have a third ready to go for the DV "Honour and Glory" challenge.

Please check it out...

I don't know what's causing this, but I've installed the Divx Web player and then when I click back on it, it resets and tells me to install the software again. Is something wrong here?

Good stuff man thanks for sharing

Gabriel Yeager January 21st, 2007 04:44 PM

Wow Joel! Nice footage! That is some insane stunts! And I liked the hole blood thing. It turned out nice!

And my Mom said I was crazy when I did a half foot bunny hop, ha!

I am constantly amazed at where these guys can go with their bikes and you did a very nice job, indeed.

Jesus Galaz January 21st, 2007 08:34 PM

Well done to the riders! And well done to you!

Stunning trailer! Important subject. I had no idea this was going on. I hope you get funding.

I've been developing a screenplay on this topic for a while now!

btw I live in the Philippines where a lot of this stuff takes place. But the key area is the Straights of Malucca. I wish I was rich enough to contribute to your project! Good luck!

Trigger
 
Hey everyone, I just recently completed a 50 minute acton-drama called "Trigger," follwing the story of four thieves as they attempt to rob a bank in New York. I created a myspace page for it with the trailer on it, however, the music is not originally scored yet. It's poor quality and the myspace isn't completely finished yet, but check it out and let me know what you think. I'll be posting more information on the film soon.

Thanks alot!

Action sequence shots with the sony hc1 (and occasionally with the dvx100)
 
I've been doing some action shots lately. Here's one of our newest tests. This was shot in 35mm and I made some behind the scenes. It's in wmv format.

http://www.hmcindie.com/movies/Taikk...%20quality.wmv

This next clip was shot in a nice snowy atmosphere. There's one dvx100 shot embedded with the hc1 shots. Try to guess where.

Video at the MFA Boston
 
I made this kung fu movie a couple years ago, and won an unprecedented traveling scholarship. The trailer is online:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GW-beUwgfXo

I'm now preparing a new video for the Museum of Fine Art's (Boston) Traveling Scholars exhibition. It opens February 10 to March 11, if you're in the neighborhood. Also, if you are a tech wiz I'm running into all kinds of problems, so take a look at my threads if you can help out!

Thomas Smet January 23rd, 2007 04:22 PM

Was that first piece really shot with the HC1? I ask because to me there seems to be a big quality difference between the first video and the second video.

The first video pretty darn good for a consumer camera. It is amazing what great lighting can do for a cheap camera. I thought the compression held up very well considering all the random drops of water flying all over the place. You didn't by any chance have this hooked up to a component capture system did you?

Was this a PAL unit? If so did you use the cinema effect mode or just a deinterlace. I noticed the video was 1024x576 so I assume it is PAL and you converted to a 16x9 SD file. Very nice results on that. I watched it full screen on my 1440x900 laptop monitor and it looked very detailed.

Yup. Also the arctic wind divx piece is encoded to 1024x576 quality. We shot it mainly with the hc1 because it held up very well against the dvx100. It was kinda weird using the bigger and sturdier camera as the b-camera, but that's how it was.

The lighting on the first piece was good enough so I could close the iris a bit and that helps with the sharpness quite a lot. I also used a high shutter on some of those shots and it helps in slowmotion and makes all the water droplets easy to spot. But it will also increase mpeg artifacts.

Nope, it was straight to hdv and to the mpeg2 encoder. Mpeg2 tends to break up during fast motion video, but for some strange reasons it worked well enough here. I did do a small smart smoother filter on virtualdub though and that helps the compression to wmv or divx. Resizing was also done on virtualdub as premieres scaling is not so good.

And yes, this was a pal unit and I did just a simple deinterlace. HC1 is a great unit which has only 2 drawbacks (as a consumer camera) and those are bad low light and rolling shutter.

These were basically just for my own hobby of doing action setpieces.

HD Clip from San Francisco Reggae Concert
 
Flew in from Fort Lauderdale to San Francisco on the 13th to help out a promoter with his event on the 14th at DNA Lounge in San Francisco. Had 2 HVX200's for a multicamera shoot but the laptop on the second camera was messing up. This is a clip of the various artists that performed.

Man in Manali trailer :: Garifuna documentary
 
Howdy all,

I've recently finished a trailer for an upcoming documentary on the Garifuna of Honduras (Manali) and would be thankful for any feedback.

cheers

ps -- any thoughts on our website would also be appreciated (It's new too!)

Henrik Holmberg January 24th, 2007 06:03 AM

This looks really cool! Can't wait to see more.

Mike Horrigan January 24th, 2007 08:47 AM

Thanks, I've added mpeg's to go along with the .wmv files, but the .mpg file came out looking pretty bad in comparison. The file size is much larger as well.

I'll work on getting some better mpeg files up and running soon.

Thanks again,

Mike

Mikko Lopponen January 26th, 2007 02:24 AM

Here's a new clip:

They were shooting it for film and I did some behind the scenes and my own cut of the fight which can be seen at the end of the clip.

Who have time to check speed connection Italy-USA?
 
These are 2 URL of backstage on my web site that I setup in progressive download for WMPlayer, encoder WMV VHS Quality 320x240 400 Kbps.

1:21 outdoor short -- "Ninja" -- Canon XH-A1
 
This was a short I hacked together for a video contest. It was my first time using the XH-A1, and as such I recorded a lot of the images underexposed since the LCD makes the image appear brighter than it really is. There are a lot of small things I would have done better if I didn't have to make this deadline for the contest, but all in all I think it came out decent. I learned a lot this first time out with my camera, and am sure my next production will come out better.

EDIT: Here's a youtube link for ease of viewing -- http://youtube.com/watch?v=ESCDUrhs38k

I understand Savefile is acting up again. It had problems a while ago with it's server but I thought it had been sorted. Shame because the site was easy and well constructed.

Here is another link to a larger upload which is more representative of the quality (Youtube compression is awful !). Hope this works. I would much rather people view this download, it's only 15MB. Thanks.

Lady X on TV
 
Lady X: Clay Soldiers will be airing nationwide in Taiwan on February 3rd and 19th at 11:30pm on CTS. Looks like we're goin' legit.

If you're not in Taiwan (and I'm pretty sure you're not), you can still watch it on Youtube at

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHVZC1QV9tE&eurl=

I'm still editing the feature. It's called "Paradigm X" (for now, anyway, unless we can think of a better title). Hopefully it will be done and out the door by this summer.

Rob Lohman February 1st, 2007 04:13 AM

Great to see the longer version, Lady X lives! :)

An Engagement Shoot - promo
 
This is a short promo I've recently completed for my cousin. He is a wedding photographer based in the Philadelphia area. We are trying to showcase his rather informal approach to wedding photography, which he feels is an antidote to the usual stiff and boring photo shoots that everyone has come to expect.

Feedback on any aspect of the video is welcome.

Thanks,
Mike

My First 'Teaser'
 
Not sure if this is the right section but I just finished my first Teaser/Trailer for my local church. I've just started to get into videography in December and want to start doing it more often.
Any feedback you guys could give me would be quite appreciated. Thanks!

am i missing something? I'm only seeing advertisements everywhere.

Hey Justin,
The best place for this type of vid would b in the "show your work" section near the bottom of the forum main page. I loved it a lot. Didn't really pay detailed attention to the audio as it just plays from the speakers of my laptop, but the video, editing, and the script for the teaser was thought out well. Near the end where you have like six different phrases on the screen it just gets crowded and I can't read all that info in that brief time. i would break it up and have 2 at max pop up. thanks for sharing
