The video was shot and edited for a motoring TV magazine named 'Automotiv' playing on a Croatian commercial TV called NOVATV.
The car moving was shot with a Canon XH-A1 and the rest was done with a 7D.

Very nicely done. As you may be aware from some of my recent posts, I'm kind of into cars and appreciate how difficult it can be getting some of those shots.

The grading is well done as well, although the only comment I have - which is not a criticism as much as an observation is the difference between the 7D footage and XH-A1 footage. That's a very subjective thing and I liked it the way that it is.

Good job.

Thank you!
I have seen your work and you're doing some really good stuff also.

The difference between XH-A1 and 7D is really obvius, but I'm still not 100% satisfied with capturing sound on th 7D.
So I chose the XH-A1 where the car is moving because the sound of this car is very good and important for the overall impression.

Also, my car mount is the basic manfrotto which is not good enough to hold the 7D firm so the footage is unusable.
Still learning and trying out different stuff.

Keep up the good work, we'll get there....
