Digital Cinema Filmmaker's Training Course

With this volume, we got: Using tracked Heavy Dollies with a 35-year veteran Key Grip, using pro studio Mic Booms, correctly mounting and using Matteboxes (Chrosziel), electronic Focus and Zoom controllers (Bebob), balancing on-board monitors with Articulating Arms (Nnoga), using on-camera Lighting both tungsten and HMI (PAG), differentiating Battery chemistry types and uses (PAG), principles of underwater bags (EwaMarine), Body-mounted camera support (Orbiter), Pan-Tilt fluid Heads + Compact Jibs + Studio Pedestals in-depth (Cartoni).

It is 80% general information that can be applied to other manufacturers' equipment. 20% specific to the manufacturers themselves, so that can know exactly how to use a Chrosziel Mattebox, or a Bebob Foxi focus controller for the HVX200 and DVX100B, etc.

The coup d'etat is the Cinematography Equipment Rental Guide, which is over an hour of instruction, line by line, in how to read and understand rental contracts, how to choose a rental company, how to negotiate for better rates, and how to keep from getting cheated. Also, how to prepare your gear, how to return it, what to sign, and getting the right Insurance.

I hope you guys enjoy it! :love4:
 
im interested in the DCT-MP dvds but i dont want to buy the whole package. is there any possibility for this?
 
exactly.

dont get me wrong, the COMMAND package seems to be absolutely great and astounding but its to expensive for me. it may be worth it but i simply dont have the money for every part.

the dct-mp box seems to be a good stand-alone course
 
I understand, sir, but unfortunately, we cannot break up the basic course. The reason being is that, DCT-MP will not function properly unless preceded by DCT-BP, and followed by DCT-LS. The information will seem confusing, and also will not leave the correct lasting impression upon the student's work. There is something unique that transpires in the student's mind when the entire series of 20 discs is viewed in its prescribed order. I apologize for any inconvenience, sir.
 
I'm preparing to watch the DVD's

But im a bit confused, in which order should I watch them, because it doesn't say where to start at ...

Shall i start with the gear guide followed by the MP, then the BP, or BP, then MP, then gear guide ?
 
They were all sent out weeks ago Corey. I thought you'd have gotten yours first, seeing as though you live five miles from the office :) I think a personal delivery is in effect for the guy that started this whole thread :cheesy: I'll send you an email.
 
How is the latest version of the The Digital Cinema Course?

I'm thinking of getting it for my son who wants to start with this love of ours.
 
According to the Who-Is records on Rush's websites, he seems to have let them expire on March 28, 2008. They were automatically registered by HostRocket.com on the same day they expired. I hope Rush didn't forget and has now lost the domains.

I just found his course a couple days ago and went to his website to read more about it, only to find them in the domain-expired-snatched-by-registrar status.

I had planned to buy this course last year but never got around to it until now. The reviews I read about it on here are good so I'm looking forward to receiving it.
 
Anyone know how up to date the material in these DVDs are. I looked at a few samples videos on their. Sound is still the same since the days of the cave man and adam :), and light, well we've got some of dem' little LED panels now but what about the HD. Just wondering before thinking about splurging $500 or so on them.
 
They're offering the entire course on Blu-Ray now. The 5 minute promo looks really professional so I think this is a pretty comprehensive introduction to the world of professional filmmaking. Most other courses these days try to emphasize "DSLR", "low-budget", or "easy", but in this one it seems they're not trying to take any shortcuts. An excellent resource in my opinion.
