Big Budgeted Music Videos on Canon's HV20

The one things I noticed in Heartstop - Don't Wake Me Up is there's continuity errors with the drums. In some shots there's a left-sided floor tom, on the wide shot it's not there; Unless it blended in with the back wall (they are similar colors), which seems unlikely.

And kind of Red Rock adapter are you using? And do you have to use step-up rings to mount it to the HV20?

hey andrew.. .yeh on the drummers close up he had an extra tom but for the wides he didnt use them at all because it would alter his performance. and i do use an adapter which happens to be a redrock thats why theres so much vignetting. and you do need step down rings to use it with the redrock...the hv20's thread size is 43 i believe so you would have to go from a 72 to a 55 then to a 43 for it to be compatible with the hv20..

new video

for mexicans only...or if you down with their culture

please view


I know nothing about Mexican culture or music, but I loved this video. It was joyful. That has a lot to do with the attitude of the main singer, he's great, and you did well to focus so much on him and the way he moves. I also love the depth of field effect. He really pops from the background. Did you use a DOF adapter of any kind or was it a telephoto lens? Also, did you augment or control the lighting on the main singer in the shots where he's wearing yellow? It seemed reflected up and even; however you did it, I liked the effect. Thanks for the link. You're doing really great work with an HV20. Very inspiring.
 
jurno,

thanks for viewing its always a pleasure to hear feedback from fellow filmmakers. i did use an adapter which creates unwanted vignetting(dark circles around a frame). the lighting that was done in his close up was done with a reflector pointing upwards towards him to take out the dark shadows which the hat on him creates. and a 50mm lens was used...50mm and a adapter seems to work the best for everyone so it seems

thanks again for watching

sincerly

Hey, K3, did you take that Mexican video offline? I was going to point someone to it but it doesn't seem to be available.
 
That's weird. I swear for a while it wasn't showing up in your channel. Anyway, it's there now.

Just wanted to share it with someone I know who has an interest in Mexican culture. Thanks.
