I'm looking for recommendations for a budget lighting kit that I want to use on some Youtube videos. The videos will be of one person, waist up shots, in front of a greenscreen and also occasionally in a classroom setting. I understand that lighting the greenscreen is all about lighting it as...

I mostly create greenscreened half body shot videos for some Youtube channels. I can record audio externally. I never do any run n gun. Do you think the G7 is a good buy? I was thinking of adding a Atomos Ninja 2.

Sorry if this in the wrong forum. I haven't kept up to date on new cameras for a looong time and I'm looking to replace my old XHA1 with something newer. I mostly use it for greenscreened half-body shots videos that end up on youtube . I'm looking to spend around $1000-$1500, but wouldn't be mad...

So I've set up my own greenscreen studio in my office and for the visuals its set up pretty good, a couple click and effects in AE and I'm on my way. But the sound is most definately not there. I'm doing everything on my own, so noone to help. I originally used a wireless mic set up to an audio...

I'm still a beginner so what I've been doing is trying to copy some of the intros I often see. So the first one is from a CNN video My version ( http://www.vimeo.com/5927894 ) Original CNN version ( http://www.vimeo.com/5779555 ) I'd like any comments on how to make it better or closer to...

I'm trying to reproduce this (around 6 sec mark) http://www.vimeo.com/5779555 at the end when the girls picture comes up and the title appears there are light streaks (or shadows only) that appear from the left to the right, about 5 lines in total. How did they do that? I messed around with...

I've seen this written before but I've never tried it. If I was shooting just one person (head to toe) and there was little movement would it make sense to turn the camera on its side and then reorient in post?

This is an intro I'm doing for an Education company that is producing video TOEIC (an international English test) study material. The animations are more or less done, will have to sinc them with the music though. The first part of the video is seperate footage I had that is just a placement...

I'm trying to make a 3D room (without side walls or ceiling) and then mix it with some keyed footage, I added the video screens and couch to maybe add some perspective, also added drop shadows but I feel like somethings missing, maybe a little horizon/shadow where the back wall would meet the...

I was practicing blemish removal and its hard for me too look at it objectively http://www.vimeo.com/3450623

Is there much difference between working in the 2? Is it always better to work in 16?

Hi all, I'm an English Teacher in Japan looking to start and edutainment ESL company, right now I'm looking at making a videos that would include me standing in front of a greenscreen and teaching various points. While there is other videos like this they all more or less have that "boring...

So I'm having a little trouble with my HDV workflow. I'm producing mostly for the web(or I should say to be viewed on the computer at times off line), and a lot of the footage has chromakeying involved. This is one of the main reasons I thought HDV would be better than SD because HDV is...

I'd first like to say thanks to all here, I've learned an unreal amount for the last 6 months. But I recently just got my camera (Canon Xh-A1) and while I've got a general grasp of things, I've still got a ton of questions and if there are any kind souls out there to help I'd sure appreciate it...

Hello all, this isn't really an video/audio question. I'm an software designer (mostly Flash) and my new project is making English learning software for English language students. I want to do most of the vocal tracks in my office if possible. I've done a little bit of research and went ahead...

You took a seasoned pro to the local hardware store and made him choose lights available only there, how well could he still make his movie? Or in other words is it the lights or the lighter?

I'm using a Canon XH-A1 , and on the SD setting no problems at all, but on HDV premiere can't capture anything. It goes thru all the motions and even says "batch capture finished" but in the end I get nothing. More or less same problem with OnLocation, SD no problems but as soon as I switch to...

I looked at soem older threads for a couple hours and to be honest I'm MORE confused now. I just got my A1 and in SD Premiere and OnLocation work no problems but when I switch to HDV OnLocation crashes and Premiere can't capture. So I'm looking at other capture programs like HDVSplit, or maybe...

Are there any advantages/disadvantages to using Adobe's OnLocation when recording to using MiniDV tapes first and then importing into Premiere?

Sorry if this is a bit of a noob question, I have recently purchased a Canon XH-A1, I also have purchased this audio interface Focusrite Saffire ( http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/379066-REG/Focusrite_SAFFIRE_Saffire_Audio_Interface.html ) I bought the audio interface for recording some...
