I'm really new here, I just joined. I have to admit that I can't wait to go over all the threads. I love filmmaking and I hope to contribute as much as I can to this great community. I live in Eastern NJ, in a border town with NYC. If you are from the area and
Want to make contact just contact me. I’m going to be working on a short, using a XL1
Shortly.

Greetings!!

Alain,

Welcome. I'm just across the river in Manhattan.

I am completing my short and in pre-production as director of photography for a full length feature being shot exclusively on the XL1S. Thats what has been getting in the way of finishing my short. I will also be shooting some tests in 16mm and 35mm soon for learning and a project simmering.

Anyways, keep me posted of your endeavors and I hope that we might meet in the future.

Add me to your email list(s).

Cheers!

Hi Derrick,

Thanks for you reply. I'll definitely keep you posted. I'm also going to be doing some testing on the XL1 with the PS Technik adaptor. I'll let you know when; maybe we can pick a few tips from each other’s work. My email is a.aguilar8@verizon.net

Alain,

Did you buy the PS or are you going to rent it? I would like to see your results. The budget of the feature I am working on is "pay-as-you-go." I would like to see the PS in action. Not to mention use some of those 35mm primes.

I am setting the feature up with the option for DV to FILM. I wonder what PS blown up to 35mm looks like.

I read you are in the compu-TAH field. I supplement my income with computer work at Rock Center. Do you handle everything yourself, for the most part? What aspect do you like the most? (Edited - - Regarding Filmmaking)

(Insert Opportunity to tell me about yourself or email me.)

Cheers!

Derrick
