We shot this over a few days in Canada on the Panasonic S1 and Mavic pro 2. Honestly I can't be happier with the S1. Having shot on the A7iii and the A7sii for the past years the S1 is quite an advance in image quality. There is so much latitude in post and the dynamic range is really great in comparison.

Nice. Shot in Vlog? I see the Mavic Pro 2 is no slouch either.

thanks for sharing, certainly some food for thought there.

Just put this video out about filming as many scenes as you can in one location and the reasons why you would want to do that. Let me know if you have any questions or comments!
 

Thanks! It unfortunately won't be out for a while... we are going to put it in the festival circuit first. I'll post it here when it is out though. Just posted our episode 3 of the BTS for that shoot

Lovely photography there to begin in the last ten seconds of 1st minute... Neorealism began like that ; ) Where can we watch the whole thing? @mojo43
PS: Nice tips to newbies and all, kudos to you man BTW! (E : -)
 
 

I thought I would put together some of the things that we have learned about working with non actors or inexperienced actors. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any feedback or questions..

Indeed, I see some others noticed on YT comments but you didn't address the note... so nothing about the performance of the device then? Just circumstances how you operate the whole thing?

I am not sure I understand the question? Are you asking why it is shaky between 1:09 and 1:24 and not after? If so, I believe I am running between 1:09 and 1:24.

I was watching this triple ticket:
 
 
 
...when reminded myself of your videos and threads! @mojo43 (cheers, E : -)

I was a bit late to the whole photo- and videography party, so at the time I was picking up my first camera, GH4 was already available.
So was Resolve, Canon ML, Sony A7S, etc.
None of these were considered by me as groundbreaking, since I simply didn't realize what people had to struggle with before.
That's why I'll refrain from choosing anything video related, simply because I don't think I'd be objective.
BUT, my nomination goes to...
SanDisk Sansa Clip+
This little bugger has been with me for almost a decade, day in, day out. Hasn't failed me, yet.
And you know what? Even after all these years, nothing can surpass it. People still can't find any DAP (Digital Audio Player) that could be called its rightful heir.
It plays everything I throw at it. Battery lasts for over 20 hours, still. I can clip it to my belt loop or keep it in any of my pockets. Operating it doesn't require looking - almost if I was typing a text with Nokia 3310 - pure muscle memory.
And the memory card I use it with (128GB microSD) cost more than the player itself.
It's madness.
 
*Yeah, I may be a millennial, but I'm not going to listen to music on my phone anytime soon. Who ever thought it'd be comfortable? And wireless earbuds? Nah, plug me (and my 3.5 mm jack) in.*

Mine has to be the Sony A7s.    I have had a LOT of cameras this last decade (and a lot including old point and shoot cameras just this year).    I am now on my second A7s (my first broke after years of solid daily use but I was recently given a new one by my family).      After being without one for a year or so, I appreciate being able to put pretty much any lens on it and simply walk out the door and shoot it at any time of the day or night.
I do not need a huge pixel count or tracking AF but being able to put the ISO on auto (currently max 25600) and not worry is wonderful...with almost every other digital camera I have had (A7, GX7, 7D, Nex3N. several Pentaxes a  couple of Olympus digital ILCs, a Nikon and more as well as many P&S, i HAVE had to worry about the max ISO (A7 was almost worry free for me) and in some cases, simply not shoot at night without flash (or light for video).
It isn't JUST having decent high ISO, it is the dynamic range that goes with it too.    The A7s is stilly pretty good for DR at base (still equal or better to ANY M43 and most APSC and many other FF cameras but it does not drop away anywhere ear as steeply as other cameras (I have some cameras that are about the same at their base as the A7s is at ISO 12800).
I am also finding that simple things like the horizon level in the EVF (that does pitch as well) is a godsend for walking around.
Sure the camera has many flaws but the things it does, it does very well.
Your choice?
 

This is episode 2 from our BTS/vlog from our journey to film a fictional short in Guatemala a bunch of weeks ago. Let me know if you have any questions or anything that could be improved!
