Hey Guys,

I was recently given investing on an Ultra Low Budget film $170K

it's a nice Dramatic Horror Film. The question Is, if you had the opportunity and a contact to shoot using a Red ($500 a day), would you do it? what kind of Camera would you shoot your first Horror film with?


I personally own a HVX200, should I just get the lens adapters to go with it and save money?

thanks a lot!!!!

You'll have to run the numbers obviously, but if there's enough left over the camera that costs ten times as much as yours to buy will probably work a little better. As long as you also have a crew familiar with it. But you can also do great with an HVX if you light it and shoot it right. You may well benefit from the smaller size, depending on what you need exactly.
