Thanks a lot G. Scott. Appreciate it!

Very professional and impressive looking reel. Excellent cinematic quality to your work. I love the angles of your shots, and your masterful use of different lenses. Two questions: What lenses do you generally use? How many cameras do you use on a wedding shoot?

From teh footage it looks likea mild .3X fish eye + MAYBe a standard wide adapter. My guess is that 2 HDV cameras are used.

I was considering getting a .3X FE myself for my HC1 for weddings and after watching Daniel's footage I finally decided to take the plunge. He is one of the few people that IMO use it well.

LOL: just read thru the entire post and it seems .3x FE & 2 FX1's is indeed what he uses.

Excellent usage of different angles, moving cameras, and just having 'the eye' and being able to recognize and deliver clips with an epic feel to them. Far beyond the standard of what I am used to seeing in wedding videography.

Very nice, Dan. What did you do on post to obtain this awesome look?

Michael Y Wong October 31st, 2006 03:34 PM

Btw Daniel (or anyone else who would know) what is the name of that burn to white transition? It is very classy and when used well in this demo it lead to a very 'epic' moment IMO.

I notice alot of FCP users are in love with that transition, but I can't seem to find it in PremierPro 2.0. Would any one know which software application has that transition?

Thanks in advance.

Just basic Color Correction. Boost the saturation and crush the blacks a bit.

Like I said elsewhere just a FE lens and 3 cameras were used.

Thanks Dana!

Its from Nattress Film Effects package but I have seen similar things done with PC platform just not sure which one.

dumb question ??
 
this may be a stupid question

but i have a regular LCD monitor and just good old computer you mention you have to convert alof of footage back to SD.

is what i just watched there a true representation of HD quality or is what im seeing just SD quality shot with an HD camera

sorry if this is confussing

on a seperate note amazing work love your camera work and the way the whole thing is put together..

thank you

MEKHAEL

^ SD downconverted from HDV. However from teh high PQ I would bet that Daniel used solid programs/workflow to do the HDV->SD software downconvert, as opposed to outputting in SD from the camera itself.

Good question Mekhael.

It was all shot in HDV and edited in HDV (actually Apple's AIC) and then resized and encoded for the web within Flash encoder so it was never really downconverted to SD until encoded for the web.

Very, Very Good.
 
Nice use of the music. This is a great example why to invest in HD now, it does make the SD look a lot better.

Keep up the Good Work.
