highlights clip to share
Hey all,
Another highlights clip for you to trash. www.nosmallroles.com/h264.mov My apologies for the large file. I encoded it in Quicktime Pro, and must have chosen the wrong bitrate. Sure looks better, though! 16:9. I shot in HDV with my Z1, downconverted in camera and edited in DV with Avid Xpress Pro. Thanks in advance for any critique. I always learn lots, and use your feedback to colour my future work. |

Looks pretty good! Do you shoot everything at 60i/60p? Because there are some nice slowmo's there.

Yes, it's all 60i. The Z1 doesn't do progressive.
Thanks for checking it out! |

Very nice.
One thing: some b&w shots like at 1:27 and 2:14 seem to have a higher contrast then the rest. Did you do that on purpose? A little disturbing to me. For the rest excellent work. |

Beautiful. The only part I'm not so sure about is where you freeze the couple near the end after a few flashes from the photographer. The first time through it just felt like there were too many flashes. That's it, though. Great video!

Hi Winfried,
Good eye! Those two shots were overexposed in the original footage, and I needed to lower the brightness and boost the contrast more than I wanted to get something acceptable. Travis, I wasn't sure about that either, though I ended up liking it. Though it could be more elegant, that's for sure... Thanks to you both for checking it out. I was starting to think no one liked me, hehe... Cheers, Vito |

Naw, we like you. I just had to pull two overnighters in a row, so I've been a little slow on the forums, heh.

Ahhh, that warms my heart.
Hope the extra work you put it was worth it. |

Did you use any MB filters or just play with levels? Looks good. I liked the feel of it. John |

Hi John,
MB is Magic Bullet I guess? No, it's just with colour correction. I desaturated everything, then added colour to get the look I wanted. Most of it also has the brightness and contrast boosted. Glad you liked it. Thanks for taking the time to comment. Cheers, Vito |

Cool
I liked it a lot. I thought the intro was pretty cool, the black and white shots looked great. Nice job.
