Hi!
Just wanted to let other DSLR nerds know about the fun seminar I put together at SXSW featuring Philip Bloom, Barry Green, and the Bui Brothers.
Here's game plan for the workshop:
Philip sets them up and shows them why DSLRs are such a big deal in the first hour in a session called, "DSLR Filmmaking, Unlocking New Visual Possibilities." Showing footage, explaining DOF, explaining some history of why this is what cinematography nerds have been begging for this for the last 10 years, etc.
Barry will next talk about what the real world limitations of Filming with DSLRS in a session called, "DSLR Filmmaking, Understanding Strenghths and weaknesses." He's done a lot of cross-testing in this space and can explain what the real world limitations are at this point. I think this section is key so people just don't walk with the notion that these cameras are all sex and magic. You need to know what you're doing especially if you're going to attempt pro-level (or even semi-pro) production.
And The the Bui brothers will wrap it up with a session on gear and workflow requirements (for both post and acquisition) called, "DSLR Filmmaking, Gearing Up For Success." Lenses (including image stabilization vs. non stabilized), lights, rigs, audio, a sample post path, how much memory, etc.
Thinking that should give a strong argument for why this is an important shift in image creation, communicate the pluses and minuses of using DSLRs and give them concrete information on what they need to get to achieve similar results.
It's part of the Interactive and Film sections of the festival, so you'll need a badge to either to get in.
Thanks!

But a DVD is fine.
