Great work!

AWESOME!!! THE song is cool too. :D But the video is awesomely done. :D:D::D

I tell you, those DVX100A's are like nearly indistinquishable from film!!! I while it's had alot of editing and color correction applied, you jsut can't get this type of look and Depth of field with hardly anything BUT the DVX100A (XL2, im sure, but aside from that....NOTHING as filmic as the DVX100A!!! DANG!!! I NEED ONE!!!

thanks for the comments everyone!

i'm sure the band would be happy to give permission to use the song in movies. they're very film-friendly.

jeremy, i agree that the Pansonic camera looks pretty great.

For this video, i used the 100, NOT the 100A.
there was actually very little color correction on this video. just a couple shots of the girl that were used in places i didn't intend on, so we did a little matching. overall, what you see was all in camera (except for the light flares and the blow-outs at the and were after-effects).

the depth of field was not the camera, but an optical trick...

Very nice.

To complain.. I think the camera was a bit late when she enters the house.. She's almost out of frame for some time until the cam finally keeps up..

otherwise.. well done.

Good work! However, if you export something like this for the
web I would crop the black bars. They are wasting bandwidth
and compression (which is important in web delivery).

black bars waste bandwidth? Never have for me (then again, I've only tried DivX).

Ofcourse they do. They need to be encoded and thus costs bits
without adding much if anything. If you crop the bars there is
less vertical resolution to encode so your files can be smaller or
you can use less compression than you are doing now for the
same file size (and thus get a slightly better quality). Now this
won't be massive savings in bandwidth or quality, but every bit
helps in my mind.
