http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKgHLr4et0A A new video from Pop Friction. The first video I used with the Technicolor Preset. So good. Like a whole new camera. I love low contrast images and this really did the job. 7D & Canon 24 2.8, 35 2, 50 1.8, 85 1.8 NTG-3 and H4N Mole Richardson Soft...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9BQH_uTDxQ 35mm f2 and 85mm 1.8. Exposed 100 iso, 1/50th, at f/3.2 One 320W light used for key. Audio: Rode NTG-3 FCP. Colored with Colorista II.

New sketch I shot with the 7D. Used the 24mm 2.8 and 85 1.8 with a 3 stop ND filter and a reflector. Sound was done with NTG-3 and the H4n. FCP and Colorista. BTW. Plural eyes gave me some trouble. I recorded on stamina mode in order to preserve battery life of my H4n, and I didn't realize that...

Is a new sketch I made for my youtube channel. I think it looks pretty good besides the issues I had with exposure changes in the natural light. That's why one setup's worth of shots looks so degraded, as I had to bump up the exposure in post. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2nDn5Ha2Qg Any...

You know. I didn't make it to the finals and to be honest I am really bewildered by their choices. None of my favorite ads made it to the finals. I thought I would share my spot. It was shot on the 7D in LA with a small crew, no permit and a small budget (around 200 USD). Only had a dolly and...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz3As8KP6Cc I directed this fun little sketch. All natural lighting. Sound straight from H4n.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZB0EfCXj5c Shot with Canon 7D with 50mm 1.8, 85mm 1.8, and 24mm 2.8 and some reflectors in a couple of hours. Edit in FCP and CC in Color.

Ok Ok. It's a Spec. But Please, tell me if you like it. It was a bit difficult as the sun was going down so the color temp of the light went from 5600 to 7000 or so within the three hours we were there. So CC was a a bit rough. No budget. Just a couple of friends spending a couple of hours...

"Never Be The Same" 2 Minute Micro film. Shot over three days with a completely volunteer cast. This turned out beautifully. Effects done in AfterEffects with the help of Action Essentials 2. http://vimeo.com/9121819 -JMJ

I've always been a fan of Janusz Kaminski's diffusion. Im a huge fan of texture over resolution. And have always experimented with adding post diffusion/glow with mixed results. I was watching The Informant! last night and really liked the use of Double Fog Filtering throughout. This made me...

Here in Tucson we are starting a local film community called New Dogme. This is the first in a lengthy list of short films to be produced. We shoot a new short film everyweek. Please comment and look forward to a new short on Monday. http://vimeo.com/6489721

Here it is. Its for a local church. Comments welcome. Have a great day. Feel free to download away because vimeo didn't recognize it as HD cause I compressed it with source res and 960X720 came out. http://vimeo.com/4066361

Where can I find the best AC adapter for my HPX500? I am new to this camera... does it come with? Please help!

Im looking for a good 35mm for my Letus Extreme. Will this lens work for my Nikon mount? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/92011-GREY/Nikon_00001923_Wide_Angle_AF_Nikkor.html I was concerned because it has auto focus?? Thanks!

I have been trying to convert my 60p footage in Final Cut... and it will not convert. Now I have tried on three different computers with final cut 6. It must be my camera... but how? It has always worked before! I haven't changed anything on my settings... Has this happened to anyone else?
