[digitalfilmmaker]

Hi! I'm the producer/co-creator of AskANinja.com and we're shooting our new material on 7Ds.

Here's a shot of our rig:

And here's the first promo:

Shot using a paperroll and keyed with KeyLight.

Which follow focus system is that and has the Ninja become a millionair !?

 

[digitalfilmmaker]

Hmm, I dunno which FF that is -- it's part of our Nintern's kit. We shoot the top camera as the tight angle, and the bottom as the wide. Since he's standing on marks we keep it static focus and at 5-5.6 F Stop

This is actually the first time we've shot with more than one camera.

Fun Fact, we started Ask A ninja shooting first on a consumer Sony stills camera and then moved to DV, direct ot disk. The first hard drive we bought was 250gigs and it lasted us months and months. And just on our first day back we shot 250 gigs. Yikes!

It's great news to hear that new episodes are on the way. Thank you for the many days turned around after watching a episode.

Totally ignored the million dollar part of the question

Glad to see Ask a Ninja is still going strong!
:thumbsup:

Way to go Kent and the rest of the team.

 

[digitalfilmmaker]

Well, We certainly did great before the ad crash and we went dormant. So we're getting back to regular (and even daily content) and if the response to the promo is any sign, I think we'll be okay.

 

[Luis Caffesse]

Yeah, I don't think you guys have anything to worry about.
