I am using a Panasonic Lumix G II Lens, 20mm, F1.7 ASPH with a GH4. I have the camera mounted on some rails along with a monitor etc. I am trying to mount a follow focus system but due to the lens being so small the follow focus can't reach the focus ring. Is there a way to attach an outside...

I am feeding my GH4 into wirecast and I am having the problem of all the information on the HUD showing up in the wirecast broadcast. I can't seem to find a way to completely shut off all of the data and just have a clean screen streamed in. Is there an option I am not seeing that shuts it all...

I am looking to get a few wired lavaliers. This is mostly for sit-down interview or news type videos. Some of it will be convention speakers at a booth type work also. We already have a wireless setup and are specifically looking for wired lavs this time. Looking to spend around $200 per...

I am looking to purchase some new lights mainly for larger green screen shoots. We typically use four 1K's. Two on the screen, two on the talent. We are looking to find a lower heat light that still will give us the same amount of light. I've looked a bit into LEDs and Kinos. Any...

We are setting up a small recording booth for screencasts. The room is very small, maybe the size of a walk-in closet. We would like to place a small green screen backdrop behind the presenters in there. We need to keep the heat down in such a small space. Any recommendations for a small...

I have been looking through the FCPX manual and don't see how to change to resolutions other than what is provided in the project properties window. I am trying to work on a video that is 1024x768. How can I get my project set to that resolution? Thanks.

I am using the latest version of Final Cut and have tried on two different computers with the same results. I have one video layered on top of another. Right at the point when the top video ends and the bottom video continues Final Cut is adding a random frame from earlier in the sequence...

I currently do not own an Ipad so I am not sure how much you can expand on what it does. If there was a way to use the Ipad as a field monitor I would have had one already. Is this something that might be able to be implemented? I see that the Ipad can also be used in conjunction with a mac...

I am trying to speed up an audio clip I have. I don't mind if the pitch changes but I have discovered that FC does not allow you to alter the speed like you do a video clip. I have tried linking this audio to a video clip and adjusting that way but it seems to be very buggy. Occasionally...

In the onlocation user manual it talks about the audio spectrum analyzer. Where is it at and how do I bring it up? Or is it a part of a separate program in the CS4 package?

I am in the market for a Mac Pro for editing HD video. They can be very expensive and I found a used one that is a year old that is for sale. Here are the specs: 1 - Mac Pro 2x2.8ghz Quad Core Xeon / 8GB RAM / 2x150GB 10K rpm Raptors RAID-0 / Nvidia GeForce 8800GT 512MB Video Card / 1 Super...

This was an entry into the Orlando 24 hour film festival. About 18 hours of work from start to finish for a 3 minute short. No script, no planning at all until I opened the packet. Here are the results: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W88Y0Bz3SFY Didn't have a mic, so my one line of dialogue...

I started "Grave Reality" back in 2007. I have since relocated and rewrote the script. Shooting began this last weekend. Grave Reality is a comic book horror film in a Creepshow or Tales From the Crypt style. The action fades back and forth between a "cartoon" style and "reality". We are...

The P2 workflow I was used to involved the dump drive and then dump to the mac. Is there another solution to dump the P2 cards without having to use the camera itself? Thanks.

What is the disadvantage of shooting to tape instead of P2 with an HVX200a? We are hoping to shoot in 720p 24p. Thanks.

I am bringing some footage over from FCP into After Effects and all that shows up is a white box. Is there some sort of particular settings I should have when capturing footage into FCP so that AE will be able to use it? The footage is HDV 1080i 60 29.97 Thanks for any help.

Hello. I am importing footage onto my mac with FCP. The footage is HDV 1080i 60 and 29.97. Now I want to take that footage over to my PC where I have After Effects installed. When I do that all the video clips just appear as a white box in After Effects. What is the problem? I have also...

I have done casting before and know how it is done. Well, this time casting for a topless role and not too sure how to handle it. Obviously at some point the top picks need to show "the goods". What a chest looks like with a shirt on sometimes looks nothing like you would image when it is...

Hello. I have a tape that I would like to transfer into FCP. Thing is, I have a Sony HDV camera and the footage was shot on a different DV camera. The Sony plays it just fine but Final Cut gives me an error when trying to transfer stating that it may be a DV tape in an HDV device. Are there...
