Hello all, I try to keep posting footage for all of you, because I know when i'm in need of footage from a specific camera model, it can be very hard to find at times.

The following footage was from a music video I shoot in NYC.

I was the Director of Photography on this one, and I pretty much had my hands full, as for there was no other real gaffers or crew available due to a triple booking, so I basically did everything myself. This is just a raw cut that I did really quick to post up online.

www.newyorkfilmstudios.com/musicvideodemo.mov <-- Quicktime 720p 24 HD with MP4 compression (160Mb)

All the lighting and settings in this is the following...

Hey Giuseppe. That looks pretty good-some of the best Letus35 footage I've seen. I've always had a dislike for the kind of bokeh the Letus produces, which is why I use the Brevis, but this looks quite good. Any CC at all? and What was the color gain setting on the HD110?
On another note, although there's no audio, I can tell they're dancing Merengue-I can tell 'cause I'm dominican myself...lol
And the chick's got a set of facial features to die for :-)

There is no color correction and the setting was at zero.

And yes they were dancing that lol the artists name is Tony Swing, look him up, you'll like his stuff.
