Beautiful Matthew - Loved it!
Lovely intimate feel to it, knockout compositions, gorgeous shallow DOF and bokeh, all finished off with a fantastic music selection. The colouring and location were superb also. Anything I've left out? :) Cheers, Matt. P.S you're right about the rig not winning beauty contests - looks almost arachnid in one of the pics (!) - but the results speak for themselves. |

Matthew, nice work, spectacular forest,
One question, what Quicktime version is on your computer? By intensity of contrast it seems that no the latest, showing not full 0 255 RGB range, unless you've added contrast in post. |

Just thought I'd post some of the photos of me in action with the 5D on the Cinevate DSLR rig.
Cheers, Matthew.

Hey room-mate...I see you got back to Australia OK! Loved the piece ... which pretty much shows off that Ebenezer style we discussed over cheap coffee :-) One of the truly great benefits of this Cinevate gig is that we get to meet truly inspiring artists in all shapes, forms and styles from all over the world. You and Katie are truly special regardless of whether we're looking at your collective images, or having our beer goggles featured in them.
Cheers, Dennis Wood www.cinevate.com |

Hey Matt,
I thought it was a really sweet piece. I was DYING to see some Steadicam/Glidecam fly through those straight rows of trees though! :) Have you tried using a monopod with the 5D? I would venture to say that it's definitely an under-rated tool. The DSLR rigs are great but I still noticed some slight shake in the footage. I just picked up a cheaper SLR rig from Cavision Rods Support and Accessories that works quite well. If you bring it along with a monopod on a shoot like this, it would definitely give you 2 versatile tools particularly since you seemed to be doing shots that were mainly at "eye level". How much are you loving the look of the 5D footage though? :)

I've noticed in a lot of monopod footage I've seen that there is some weird side to side movement, possibly caused by the foot of the monopod rotating slightly on the ground. That's what has kept me away from them, plus the desire to carry as little gear as possible. As for the look of the 5D footage ... it doesn't get much better! Totally loving it! Cheers, Matthew.

Matthew,
Good stuff man, good to see you're rockin that 5DmkII man. LOVE the framing/shot compositions... I'm a sucker for the shallow DOF walk into focus shots, doesn't hurt to have such good looking subjects either! Keep it up man! The Cinevate stuff is just awesome... spent a lot of time in their booth at NAB, I saw you there a lot as well. I agree with you about the aesthetics of the Cinevate stuff, but you're right, it is the must functional and most durable stuff on the planet, not to mention bang for buck it beats out anything out there! |

Great Work
Matt
Saw your work 2 days ago, really nice - the song choice and they way it was shot was on point. The shot at 0:24 was awesome - the use of sunlight as backlight on both of them. A fan of your work most definitely. Not sure if you remember but we met in Toronto when you came in to the store with Patrick, but anyways - real nice work. - Prashanna |

Matthew, can I ask whether you convert the footage to 25p or just stayed 30p?
Thanks Santo
