XL-H1 and P+S test

Nick Hiltgen · January 8th, 2006, 06:38 AM

I'm uploading a file from yesterday to chris, it's not corrected or anything but it's fast motion and (pretty much) in-focus.

Maybe your use of higher (than 1/48) shutter speeds is freezing the oscillating ground glass. I'm not sure that the glass can move fast enough for faster shutter speeds.

Clips, por favor!!!!

Michael Pappas · January 8th, 2006, 07:21 PM

Shooooooowww meeeeeeee the cliiiiipppppppppppppppppppppppsssssss!

Chris could be out playing cowboy and indians with the horses.

Chris is probably playing the Lone Ranger...

ext. late evening

............Chris- Lone Ranger!

" bang bang,,we're on our way tonto!"

............Tonto- his buddy!

where too..

............Chris- Lone Ranger!

We must hurry back to the ranch...The clips..I forgot the clips..

............Tonto

ahhhh, the clips..

Cut to wide panoramic shot..
...Ride off to sunset..

The End...

However this could be a scene from Brokeback Mountain too..............!

Chris Hurd · January 8th, 2006, 08:56 PM

I thought that was Bareback Mountain.

I'm currently at MacWorld. It's tough to orchestrate this stuff away from my office, but I'll do what I can. If I can get Nick's clips moved from the upload area over to the media server from this hotel room, then I will do so. Stand by,

Nick Hiltgen · January 9th, 2006, 08:14 AM

Hey chris if you can, the only one that I think is a new(ish) clip is the one called xl-h1 production. That's the one I'd like to get people's input on the the most.

Michael Pappas · January 9th, 2006, 02:11 PM

OMG...O M G, still no clips. Ahhhhh, what is the hold up. lol

PS: Btw How is MacWorld Chris?

Obin Olson · January 10th, 2006, 07:56 PM

I WANT TO SEE SOME CLIPS, more then anything elses I can think of, PLEASE upload them!!

Nick Hiltgen · January 10th, 2006, 09:13 PM

Ok here's the m2t clip that I sent chris I think My Idisk is working. We're off tomorrow so I may be able to pull some of the clips from the past few days. we shot some fun stuff, I jsut don't want to put out too much stuff before they edit it.

Nick,

Thanks very much for your update - I'm downloading as I type.

Can you please send the details about the clip (60i, 24F, etc), mini35?, what type of lens/focal length, etc?

Will look forward to future mini35 clips with the H1 as any/all have them available.

Thanks very much,

Shawn

Thanks Nick. What were your settings. It appears to have gain up.

I see the dead pixel. YUCK! Keep us up to date on that.

Nick,

Your movie looks scarry already!

Who is that guy about to stab with those knives?? he seems freaked out like he's about to go kill some zombies that he just watched eat his girlfriend or something! *smile*

I can't wait to see it color corrected. The high-Shutter speed got me trippin' like I'm watching 28 days later (without the grit). The very first feature ever made with the Canon XL-H1. Distribution is guaranteed! *smile*

Nick Hiltgen · January 11th, 2006, 04:11 AM

I think that's my issue with the groundglass on the mini 35, there was NO gain at all on this, it's just thick grain, I think P+S needs to come out with HDV ground glass to keep it from being too big. We were shooting at around 1/120th in 24F on the mini 35 with an 85mm zeiss superspeed set at 1.3T.

Shannon, you're somewhat right in your guess. But it's not my job to promote the movie, however it definitely has a 28 days' later feel. (I hope the distribution is guaranteed as well!)

I'll post my full opinions on this shortly, but right now I need sleep.
