well folks, here i am displaying my very first project i've ever DP'd and Directed on any kind of professional level at all, "professional" meaning shooting for an established company that is paying a couple bucks and working with a little crew of people, which was really fantastic.
to give a little back story on this and all else, this is the first time that i have ever picked up not only the HVX200 but a 24p camera EVER, i've never used one, the closest i've come to one is touching a dvx100a was at the rental house LOL and playing with knobs, also regarding this shoot, i picked up the HVX200 for the first time after my company purchased a package about, all told, 3 hours before the shoot to get my head wrapped around it, to put AAAALLLLLL the research, theory and info that i've learned about this camera while living on dvxuser.com for the last year and a bit, so THANK YOU ALL for all the info that you have all shared.
i was away for a couple weeks before this shoot on my 1yr wedding anniversary and was asked the day i left to direct/DP it, so i basically walked off the plane, dropped off my stuff at home, went to pick up the camera package, went to sleep, woke up at 6a.m, went to shoot for a day
i had nothing to do with the edit of this, nor the CC'ing, nor the script, nor really anything short of showing up on the day, getting a fairly vague script and thinking out each 15sec. piece in my head, lighting it with a fantastic lighting/grib fella' (that i met for the first time on that day) setting up the shots, directing the talent and making it real! which was sooo much fun and now that my company owns this camera package....i hope there is much more fun to be had.
anyways, sorry this is sooooo long, but i just wanted to give a little story here
and it's my first time posting something, so i'm nervous! LOL
i'm not at all happy with the kind'a "washed out" colour of the first 15sec. piece, i dont know what they were thinking on the CC'ing or whatever the editor did, but i'm very happy with the second 15 second piece
