Your work is truely inspirational. Deffinatly differnent to what we get here in the UK. Were much more traditional (static, slow mo, B+W etc).

Matt & Simon,

I think Patrick only uses Canon cam at the moment. A1 and H1.

Patrick,

may I know whenever you shoot those silhouette scene, what settings did you do the cam? They look good. I'm using Canon XH-A1 too. You bump up the contrast level in post too right? :)

I would say close the iris or maybe the spotlight button (if it has one) could also yeild the same effect.

I tried that and had the f-stop bump up, but that makes the image v dark, including the window. Is there any special technique to achieve it?

Simply amazing work. I learn something new every single time. Patrick, what system are you using (macbook pro, desktop) to capture and edit your SDE's? Also, do you present your SDE's in HD? In a tight edit like this are you playing from the laptop, DVD player, or through something like a Matrox MXO? Thanks for continually inspiring us all to do greater work!

Here you go Joel!
