On Monday the 21st May, if all goes to plan I am going to do the biggest test with my 35mm to date. I am doing a story about a kid who copied the movie "Catch me if you can" in England.
I am filming 3 reconstructions from 830am on Monday morning all on the JVC200 and the Brevis with CF1L and CF3L then editing it that afternoon for it to go out at 530pm that night.
If you are in the UK watch "five news" on Channel 5
Wish me luck!

well unfortunately the story was delayed until July pending psychiatric evaluation. Shame, because the stuff looked nice! Oh well, it's in the can ready to go out when it happens...am shooting 3 short films for Sky News this week on the Brevis too that will go out in two weeks time, will let you know.
p.s. my damn Brevis charger is playing up and neither of them were fully spammed up, one was so low it showed grain...also i have some crap on the diffusers. What do people use to clean them?

Compressed air is a HUGE help...alternatively if that doesn't get the gunk off, Dennis says you can run it under some warm water and rub it lightly with your fingers soap'ed up.

cheers ben. Will try the water. The grime is pretty much stuck on there.
Also am having a nightmare with my charger. It says my 2 Brevis 35s are charged but they are not, the red light goes green after a few minutes. Am a bit stuck as need them again on Thursday and I cant find a way to charge them. looking online in the UK and i cant find anywhere that sells a similar type charger. Perhaps am not looking for the right thing.
