Canon T2i HipHop footage with kit lens

[BillBoss]

Just something I did for a friend. The opening credits were just thrown up and also this was hand held since it was during the photo shoot and I didn't have my shoulder rig on. I'm very surprised with the quality of the kit lens and with proper lighting the look you can create. Please watch in HD, thanks.

I agree, these cameras are really quite a revolution. Was that a song of theirs that you fade into, or did they just make that up impromptu?

Seems like you got the wrong shutter speed going on there, make sure you watch that when you shoot your video. It is very hard to tell by the Canon 7d lcd screen when you are shooting. I suggest you bring a laptop with you so you can see exactly how the shutter speed is going to effect your subjects movement and the unwanted strobing. I just ran into this problem my self so be careful.


Other than that, the colors look nice and the song sounds cool, should be a great shoot!

just out of curiousity what makes it look like slow shutter speed??

i'd like to know too....i didn't notice any strobing.
all i noticed was that the camera kept moving back and forth while the singers were also waving back and forth. it was distracting. would've preferred that the camera stay put. guessing this was done purposely to try to 'spice' it up a bit?
