We had an Arri Fresnel kit at a time we thought we'd shoot with just the DVX. The kit was: one 650W, one 300W and two 150W The M2 came after and it felt like we needed bigger lights The kit also come with a soft box in which you can put any of the 4 fresnels Putting a Fresnel inside a soft box feels like loosing tons of light, would you use it? Thanks for your comments and precious advice |

Mmm. Tightly edited, short, to the point, with good-looking footage. I would have loved to know more about the organization, but that perhaps would have been a deeper story than you were looking to tell.
Nice. What was the music, by the way? It sounds quite familiar. Michael |

I am not a DP, but I know we use a lot more light than we would have used without the Mini35. You basically light like you would with film. Another advice would be to keep at least a 23" monitor on the shoot. This way you can see what you are actually getting and make any adjustments. I cannot tell you how much value it brings. I wouldn't shoot without it.

Loved the lighting. Pretty good acting too. The knock i found was the music, just not my taste.

Seems like it'll be real interesting. Is this a feature or a short?

Very nice.
Maybe adding something birthday-ish (i.e.; birthday cake w/a candle on it, etc...). Good job. What did you use to shoot, edit, etc... with? |

This video was edited on Final Cut Express HD 3.5, using LiveType for titles and Soundtrack for royalty-free music. This is also the first time I've ever tried experimenting with motion effects (resizing and moving the images all over the place). Adam |

JVC HD-110 HDV test
CLICK HERE to see an HD clip from my upcoming educational video series
This is an 18 meg, 1280x720 Windows Media Video 9 download shot with the JVC HD-110 HDV camera, edited in Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 with the 15 day free trial of Cineform's ASpectHD codec. There is a great deal of compression to get this as a web download, but it still looks pretty sharp and maintains a lot of picture information. Dig it. PJR www.sonnyboo.com |

I did not run Magic Bullet or anything, no. I thought it was balanced as is. There's a similar tint to everything.
