    iPhone Cinematography

    Hey Bill, I use to work in Montreal and I met you on a few occasions. I do not come to this place very often as I do not work in the business anymore. I remember doing Steadicam work on a short film for, I want to say his name is Ahmad Khan? Maybe? Long time ago. It was 2011 and everybody but...

    HVX200-Redrock M2 adapter independent feature - 2009

    This is the poster. I’ve got a bad video taken from a tv, so it has shaky cam. I’ll see about posting somewhere. Didn’t we use to be able to embed clips directly into the thread? And not a link. Anyway,

    HVX200 footage. A blast from the past!

    This is a video I did when I was practising with my HVX200. Circa 2007. Please note I was not using any lens adapter! I didn't own one when I shot this. I wanted to see how I could use the camera itself to achieve selective focus or as the kids call it these days SDOF. (Shallow depth of field)...

    Anyone here cutting with Lightworks 14.5? And on a Linux machine?

    Title say it all. Anyone? LightWorks is a full on pro cutter but I don't see anyone on here using it. I am thinking of moving away from Mac to Linux and using LWKS 14.5 on a Linux box. Anyone?

    Memories of my DVX

    So once upon a time I had, like so many others a DVX100. And then I purchased the LA7200g I think those were the numbers, anamorphic adapter. Then I started looking for a matte box to put in front. Turns out that was going to be an expensive item. So I made one! This is a photo of one of the...

    Pulldown removal not working in new FCP 10.4.2

    Anyone here having issues with the new FCP? I can't seem to click on the pull down removal option in the import window when importing what i know is 24PA footage. Doesn't matter what format, SD tape from the camera via firewire(HVX200) or HD from P2 cards reading out of the AJ-PCD2. The pull...

    HVX200-Redrock M2 adapter independent feature - 2009

    Title pretty much sums it up. I shot this indie feature 8 years ago with the above mentioned setup. I had 3 Nikon lenses, 35mm F2, 50mm F2 and an 85mm F2. Lighting package consisted of 3 1.2 HMI Par, 4x4ft quad KINO-FLOS and that was it! I had a fairly sparse grip package also. I supplied all...

    Short film from 2004 shot on DVX100

    So I have decided to post this here knowing I'm going to get a critique. That's cool. I don't really spend much time doing film work anymore, I'm getting in to stop motion. But here it is in all its cringe worthy glory. From 2004 shot on the original DVX100. Enjoy. If you are wondering why...

    Charles Papert and the XL1 Seinfeld commercial.

    So I was tooling around some old websites that I use to go to but alas a lot of them are now defunct. But there is one about the XL1 still out there and I found this photo. I guess I forgot that Mr Papert was an early pioneer in the digital forum. Hope this brings back fond memories Charles...

    DVXuser Jam filmfest?

    I would like to put forth a proposal that would perhaps get people interested in the Fests that use to occur here. My idea is simple enough, we decide on a subject matter, could be a word like spring. You then have say 30 to 60 seconds of filming to interpret that word. Any interpretation. I...

    More Panny goodness!

    Another short shot with the anamorphic adapter. Somewhere in the workflow something did not get adjusted so it has a slight squashed look. Ten years ago. Where does the time go. Oh and don't spoil the end for the others. Cheers. https://vimeo.com/31458495

    HVX/DVX100 footage

    So, not sure if I should put this here or over in the DVX forum. I shot this with my HVX200 but to tape. So it is SD, I guess upscale DVX100. Gotta keep these old cams working. Cheers, Just wondering, weren't we able to embed the video here at one time in the past? Not just post a link...

    HVX200 - M2 Encore not dead yet!

    Just thought I would post this for fun. Still alive and kicking. Still kicking it old school. The adapter forum is now defunct so no where else to post.

    KLM commercial shot on T2i.

    This is a commercial that I shot a few years ago. I shot the white screen stuff on a stock T2i with the stock 18-55 lens. I remember the producer was cool with my choice but the KLM executive was amazed that I was going to shoot this with my little camera. I said don't worry, it's all about the...

    Home Built Motion Control Systems.

    This may be of interest here, maybe not, been awhile since I have posted anything here. My career as a cinematographer is done but I still maintain an interest in moco systems. Have a few examples over at my VIMEO and Youtube channels. Anyone else interested or if you are building your own maybe...
