Seems like these days there isn't a ton of showcasing of footage, so wanted to just share a cool shoot I had the other day with my c100. Was shooting a book promo video, and had an artist who does hand-sketching fly in to help w/ the video. We wanted to get an overhead view of her sketching and the goal on my end was to light it soft enough that there wasn't any shadows casting on the wood or on the paper. Decided to use my 5ft diffusion screen with a cool lights 4 bank blasting through, and a cool lights cdm70 on the left to give it a little more depth without being over-lit. Then I brought in a smaller 5in1 silver reflector to the right 3/4 position to fill in a little bit of the shadows on the right back side of her hand.
Rigged up the c100 on my avenger c-stand with the telescoping boom arm. This boom has a hook that you can sandbag on the other side to counterbalance, so I did that and used a manfrotto super clamp on the other side of the arm with my manfrotto 701hdv attached to that. Tested this all out before the shoot to make sure everything was stable, and it worked perfectly. Even if the camera plate somehow slipped, the 701 has the locking mechanism so that if it were to it would still lock instead of sliding out.
Had to use a construction bubble level to make sure the camera was horizontally stable since the 701 bubble level wouldn't work when placed in that configuration.
Lens was the Contax 28mm f2 (hollywood). Shot with cinema profile, and a quick grade in fcp x. Don't have any footage to show since its not edited yet but got this screen!
