What program did you use to compress your videos?

Testing out the Nikkor 50mm 1.8. You can click the HD button and watch it in 720p. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCZE_hsLivo
Please, PLEASE let me know if these look decent. Should the quality be better? what can I do to improve them? I know the footage itself is sort of lame, pointless, but im mainly trying to figure out the post processing, so any feedback is much appreciated.
Thanks,

P.S - Select the "Watch in HD" option on the bottom right of the video player for better quality.

Not my footage (my D90 gets delivered on Wednesday) but I just saw this on Vimeo and it's the best D90 stuff I've seen so far. It's nice to see the results of someone playing to the camera's strengths with the mostly static setups.

Hey Zak, did you do any color correction on the train footage? And what were you using to stabilize the D90?
Zak Forsman
Major Contributor
crushed the blacks. no other post manipulation (other than an in-camera WB custom setting). stabilized... 100% with my hands.

Mad footy skillz bro! (kiwi accent) I thought you had it on a shoulder mount.

here are some screenshots from the short i'm doing for the next DVXfest. unfortunately I can't release footage until after it screens as part of the festival. I added grain in post to bury the compression artifacts.

i've never been a fan of grain...but i guess it's all in user taste.

what'd you use for post (grain)?
Zak Forsman

normally, i finish in Color but haven't even done that yet. I took all clips into Compressor, retimed the framerate to 23.98 and converted to ProRes. then i did a quick once-over with the 3-way color corrector pliugin, then drop the "add noise" plugin on it set to .09, gaussian, monochromatic.
