I'm currently working as a Graphic Designer/illustrator in Santa Monica, CA full-time/salaried. The company deals directly with Guthy-Renker, the people who bring you Proactiv and a semi-faux testimonial by musicians such as Jessica Simpson and Sean "Puffy" Combs. (Name drop name drop). I also work as a product photographer, 3D artist (Just starting this one), animator (Macromedia Flash for seven years), and web designer.

On the side, I write and hope to--as I've new years resolved-- put out my first official short. Seeing as how the one last year fell through the floor like a fat kid in a real haunted house. I'll occasionally take my HVX outside and shoot traffic or scenery, just to keep in practice, but I'll never show anyone that footage.

I've just been inducted into a Production Company as well, and I'll be directing my first Vertical Advertisement segment (you know these as infomercials) for a small product. And then, if we're lucky, I'll be gone to a few different places to shoot some fun stuff with my HVX.

I bought my HVX say two or three months ago... PM me for the gritty details; I think I told Timur, already.

Yes, I'm at work right now.

Yeah see. That's what you need, a little pretentious back-seat directing imported from Los Angeles.

"Rule of THIRDS man rule of THIRDS!'

"Wtf don't cross the LINE!... I learned that on DVXuser."
 
More location photos. I think I am going to go with #3 down on John st. It will mean some ADR for that scene though because the trains on the Manhattan bridge can be pretty loud. But I like this composition here with both bridges. Plus on the left is a red brick wall with a little alcove we can use. I hope to god it rains that day so we get those wet streets...

also despite my better senses, i bought a new Lens.... a 35mm F2. its BEAUTIFUL. this is my new Prime. Wide enough to look cool, but not telephoto enough to need to be in spain to get the shot. I did some testing mark, i lit up my room nice and bright, and lemme tell you, the HVX looks AMAZING in bright soft light.
 
Been reading up in the HVX workflow section, and some other places. I think I am going to go for this solution to 1080 recording.

HDRACK->laptop->USB2 RAID

Seems like a decent solution and will allow for swapping out later for client work...
 
1 T RAID 1= 500gigs mirrored=500min=8.3 hours. Man, this is getting to be like film where we have to actually care about how much time we shoot :)

But actually, I did a test last week with a 20min 1080 recording, and that came to 13.1 gigs. So it's less than 1 gig a minute.
 
reallly? thats bizare, is DVCprodecoders format more efficient than MXF's?

also MArk, Raylight has a new feature where you just drop the MXFfiles directly from the p2 card directly in to vegas, nomore conversions neccesary. it makes vegas a native editor of MXF files.
