Hey gang-- as part of my ongoing series of review videos I do a run down of some "cheaper" lighting options. Let me know what you think; if you have any questions; and more importantly if you have suggestions of other budget-solutions I overlook. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvcjNr74zWg -Kevin

Hey gang-- Anyone successfully using Canon C300 footage in CS6? It consistently crashes our systems here. We have four different computers, with slightly different hardware, and we get the crash on all of them. I've noticed that if we delete/hide the "INDEX.MIF" file that is in the...

Hey gang-- I just finished my latest review video, this one is all about what makes for a good greenscreen paint. I'm doing this show regularly now. Let me know what you think and let me know if there are topics you'd like me to cover...

Hey gang-- I just did a shootout of some of the video features of the new Nikon D800 vs. the Canon 5D mkIII. ...not sure if this is the best category to post it, but here it is: http://youtu.be/AfA2mTMt0u8?hd=1 ...and for more details you can read my write-up at www.crisislab.com. -Kevin

EX1... let me know what you think: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=zSOlYdlqyTQ -Kevin

Hey gang-- This is the teaser for my new series. Thus far shot entirely on EX1, and entirely for chromakey. I look forward to a day when I'm using a more chroma-key-friendly camera, but until then I'm pretty ^%$# happy with the results I'm eeking out of his. More to come soon.... let me know...

Here is the silly 48 hour film I did for DC a couple weeks ago. We won 'Best Film', which was awesome. It's definitely the craziest feat of greenscreening and compositing and scoring and virutal sets that we've ever tried for a 48 Hour Film. Let me know what you think...

Well done you guys. That's ground-breaking. I don't know why there isn't more buzz about it and why you don't have a giant banner covering your front page touting the win! This is such an awesomely big deal I don't even know what else to say other than: Well done Ari & SI gang. -Kevin

UPDATE: SOLD! Thanks all. ******************************* Hey gang-- I got an HVX200a that we won as part of the 48 Hour Film Project contest. We've used it once, to shoot: http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=134904 But really I want to sell it to upgrade to an HPX500. So we're...

We won an HVX200a from Panasonic (thank you Jan you're the greatest). We used it one day to shoot this short as part of the 48 hour film project in Washington, DC. And now we're going to sell the camera to upgrade to an HPX500. :) Nothing monumental to report about the camera really. It...

Here's a little short I shot recently. It was part of the Panasonic-sponsored HD showdown for the 48 Hour Film Project. We won the contest with this short, which means we are getting an HVX200a (which is wicked cool). Panasonic supplied a loaner HPX500 for the shoot itself...

Anyone know of places renting these things? I'm in the Washington, DC area, and would love to give one of these a test-run in an upcoming shoot. But I don't know anyone in the area that has one (or anyone in another area that would be willing to go through the hassle of renting to far-off...

I'm not too familiar with all the grip knick-knacks out on the planet, so could one of you that is more familiar with the billion different little things that Matthews (and the like) make tell me: How can I hang something like a Kino Diva 200/400 (or something of a similar weight) from a drop...

This is from the 2007 DC 48-hour fest, which just happened a couple weekends ago on the weekend of May 4-6th. I was the cinematographer on it, and generally helped out in many ways (as anyone does on a smaller production). I'm happy with how it turned out... both technically and artistically...

Check out (streaming video): www.buddyjackson.com Since episode 14 the show has been shot on XH-A1's. In particular, check out the most recent episode "4:55 PM - 5:00 PM", which we took extra time & care shooting in order to go for a "24" look. I was the DP for that episode, and I'm pretty...
