My cameras and kit

  1. Part of an interesting article on film viewing habits, it relates to a recent piece on money destroying the movies:   "He also hinted that he may never make another film, and Lynch blames the profit obsessed movie industry and the death of avant-garde cinema for his ''depressing'' lack of a future movie career."   http://entertainment.stv.tv/showbiz/325148-david-lynch-slams-modern-film-viewing-habits/   He said: ''With alternative cinema - any sort of cinema that isn't mainstream - you're fresh out of luck in terms of getting theatre space and having people come to see it.   ''Even if I had a big idea, the world is different now. Unfortunately, my ideas are not what you'd call commercial, and money really drives the boat these days.''   David, who is married to actress Emily Stofle, added: ''So I don't know what my future is. I don't have a clue what I'm going to be able to do in the world of cinema.   ''And television is way more interesting than cinema now. It seems like the art-house has gone to cable.''
  2. https://vimeo.com/67606128 A summer day in a boring small town in the mid 90's.   This is my latest short film, and more or less the first narrative short I've done.   There are some minor dialog in Swedish, but you probably won't miss out if you don't understand. The story is mostly told with visuals.   It was shot on a Panasonic Lumix GH2 with the "SANITY" hack.   Shot on the following glass: Panasonic 14mm f2.5 Pancake Panasonic 14-140mm f/4-5.8 kit lens Helios 44M 58mm f2 Vivitar 28mm f2.5 Fujian 35mm f1.7 C Mount CCTV Lens from ebay   Edited in Adobe Premiere Pro. Color Grading in After Effects.    
  3.  Hello filmmakers!   For a limited time my first feature, Bad Vs Worse will be available free to watch. It was shot entirely on the rebel t2i for a budget of six grand. My goal is to build a fan base and gain some recognition for my skills as a filmmaker. Unfortunately, due to the length it's not the HD version but hey, can't have it all. I hope you enjoy and any comments, question, and criticism is all welcomed. Enjoy     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NOTm1MGmIQ

    Film Convert

    Hey all, I've been messing around with the demo for this program, and I must say, it's pretty impressive....As an absolute novice at grading, it can certainly get me the look I'm after without much fuss. Too bad they only have a plugin version for the PC. [url="http://www.filmconvert.com/"]http://www.filmconvert.com/[/url] The company said they've got hold of a GH2 and will be looking at doing a LUT for it... (can't recall where I read it) I'd love to see Andrew do a full-fledged review and put it though it's paces.... Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
  5. I finally picked up a transfer box from ebay to convert some old 8mm films I have acquired over the years. I used my GH2 and it seems to do a pretty good job. This was the first time I used this particular setup. I had shot a couple Super 8mm films in film school, and we transferred to digital much in the same way. The setup wasn't completely ideal, I did it in my kitchen during the day, so there was a fair amount of ambient light. And then my roommate's dogs started barking during one. There are some under/over exposed parts that I'd like to go back and reshoot to get more detail. These are the raw video files, only converted for uploading. Once I get the workflow set, I'll crop it. I still have another 5 or 6 to upload   http://vimeo.com/63873861   http://vimeo.com/63895169   http://vimeo.com/63987501   EDIT: Not sure why it's not embedding  :huh:
  6. Typically I have been shooting DV on my Panasonic DVX-100B, but since more and more people(potential clients) have asked me to shoot DSLR I figured it might be time to buy something for those times. I'm not looking to break the bank just yet, just a good all around body that I can start getting some great lenses for.   It appears to be coming down to 3 choices: the Canon 60D, Nikon D5200, or the Nikon D7000. If anyone can share their experiences and thoughts on each it would really be helpful. I've practically spent the last week looking at reviews and screen tests, so I just need some opinions to go along with what I've read so far.   So with that in mind I would really appreciate everyones help with this decision. Thanks.     Brandon

  8. Hi there,   I am currently working on a research project for my final year in university where I study film production.   The paper is called "The Evolution of the Cinema Camera" and will discuss the technological advancements within the cameras through the decades. In particular though it will focus on the move from 35mm film to digital.   For the project I have been talking to various D.O.P's and also camera companies such a Panavision, Arri and RED, and getting their opinions on the change from 35mm to digital.    However, with digital now the primary choice for shooting a film, companies such as Canon began creating DSLR's with video shooting capability and with that came a new type of film making. It is this type I wish to speak with you all about today.   I want to know your opinions on DSLR film making and how you think it stands up to industry standard digital cameras. Do you think the market is being flooded by films shot on a DSLR that have no real quality to them or do you think DSLR film making has opened the doors to people being able to do what they want and create their film?   Why do you think people went from film to digital? Was it because it is cheaper and faster to work with or something else?   If you had the choice to work with either format which would you pick? Film or digital?   What do you think is next for the film making world? Digital cameras are now shooting extreme resolutions such as the RED Epic being able to shoot in 5K and 3D is beginning to show the world it is not just a fad as more and more films are now being shot in it and not just post-converted. What do you think the next big 'thing' will be?   I also created a poll which you are welcome to do if you wish? It simply asks the question, "Which do you prefer? Film or digital?" and then gives you the option to pick which. The link for this is below:   http://www.easypolls.net/poll.html?p=515b2863e4b0ecbcda3739ce   Feel free to comment and share this post, the more opinions I gather the better. Also if you have experience in working in both film and digital and would like to be part of the project itself then please get in touch and I will arrange an interview with you.   Thanks guys!   Dan.  
  9. Hey guys, just thought you might be interested in this.. We've been working on "The Layer" for about two years total and it's about ready to hit the internet/festivals. It is a 45 minute, conspiracy thriller shot entirely in Harrisburg, PA.  Here's the official trailer we released a few days ago.  http://youtu.be/5RNWizIsUIY We shot about 90% of the film on the Panasonic GH2 with vintage nikon glass (50mm 1.8, 24mm 2.8), a Lumix zoom lens and a few, newer, SLR magic lenses (35mm 1.7, 26mm 1.4 toy). The other 5% was shot on a Canon 7D. Reason being, that we had one scene which we chose to shoot a three camera setup in order to minimize our time at a specific location.  All the actors were volunteers who got involved simply to get their names out there. We had a lot of fun problem solving and shooting a rather complex storyline over a long time span.  Because nobody was getting paid we were forced to shoot over a 9 month period, in between regular life. This meant that the actors had to be extremely confident in their characters and the plot. There was no "emerson experience" at all.  Our post production workflow looks something like this: Edit in Premiere. VFX in AE and 3DS Max. Sound Design/Mix in Audition. Color Grade using Colorista II & a little Film Convert.  The music has been a massive collaboration between tons of different people/bands.  It's been a phenomenal, nerve wracking, wouldn't trade it for the world, type of experience.  Hope you enjoy!  Cheers, L u k e https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Layer/299035466891951?fref=ts
  10. WARNING: Contains violent imagery.   This is making the rounds on the internet today:   http://youtu.be/bWpK0wsnitc   Look at that bokeh. Incredible. I wonder what they used to shoot this...
  11. Hey there! Just finished up a short film for a local "make a film in a week" competition, and thought I'd share it. It won Best Director, was nominated for Best Drama, and was shot entirely on the Canon 5D MKIII with Zeiss ZF.2 glass. Let me know what you think! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XB5EBZa1qeU
  12. Hey guys, Wanted to let you know about a new music resource that I though you may find helpful for you projects. It's a site called Sterebot.com, from the creators of sound fx site, Soundsnap.com. It's the same principle as Soundnsnap, but instead of sound fx, it’s music. One of the niches we think we can best serve is indie film and videomakers, such as yourselves. I'm admittedly biased, as I work for the compamy, but we’ve spent quite some time making the site not only aesthetically pleasing, from a design standpoint, but also a useful functioning tool. Love it if you guys checked it out. Link to the website— [u]www.stereobot.com[/u] Link to press release— [u]http://www.prweb.com/releases/2012/10/prweb10048289.htm[/u] [u]Hope this helps. Cheers [/u]
  13. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4]This is my most recent experimental short. The objective of this short is to reveal an object. Hope after watching you'll guess what that is. This short is more like an homage to analogue photography.[/size][/font][/color] [size=4]Directed, Cinematography, Edited, Scored, Mixed by Mida Chu.[/size] Starring Megan Walters. Shot on Sony NEX-FS100 (AVCHD), with Canon 55mm f/1.2 FD, Zeiss 28mm f/2.0 ZE, Zeiss Flektogon 35mm f/2.4 M42, and Sony 16mm f/2.8 E-mount. Some shots were done with a 58mm vid-atlantic cinemorphic filter for the stretched bokeh. Most shots were converted via 5DtoRGB Batch. Hope you'll enjoy this.

  14. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NHwsx6UogI[/media] This was shot on a 5D Mark II on a shoestring budget. One of the things we're looking to do is get businesses in our city to think a bit differently about how they can utilize online video. Most of it was shot initially using cheap E series Nikon glass and a Sigma 50mm 1.4, and about 30% of it was shot using our zeiss glass. There's maybe 6 or 7 shots that were captured on a 7D. Hope you enjoy it.
