2 TV commercials shot with the dxx100a !

[Guest]

The camera is amazing. I'm new to all of this. I've never shot a TV spot before. But now, I've produced 2 commercials. One for a radio station, and another for a limo company. I would love to know what you guys think of it, keep in mind it's my first attempt! go to www.avnetproductions.com click on VIDEO then click on 965TIC-FM and PREMIER LIMO.

Good stuff... you can tell the Limo ad took you all morning to shoot. You started with very good soft morning light and finished with hard from hell mid day sunlight

Actually..it was a nightmare because it was party cloudy, and the sun was coming in and out all morning!

I was wondering about that. Sometimes the whites are a little overexposed. Did you change the ND setting when the sun popped out?

Good clips though. How did you get the gigs if you had never shot commercails before?

ND setting? OK..what is that? The first commercial I shot was for my own morning radio show. Then a friend of mine who owns a limo company saw the one I shot and asked if I would do one for him.

ND=Neutral Density filter. It's a switch on the side of the camera. It reads off, 1/8, and 1/64 It cuts down on the amount of light without affecting the color. I just discovered it's use (a little late) myself.
