Made a short test video of my twin daughters dancing to test out my GH1, 20mm 1.7 lens and slow motion functionality.

Would appreciate feedback to help me with my shooting and editing (exposure, grading, etc).

Here are the details:

Shot using my Lumix GH1 in 720P 60fps to 24fps (slow motion).

Using a Lumix 20mm 1.7 lens.

Smooth setting with -2 contrast and -2 sharpness

Color graded with Magic Bullet LOOKS

Edited in Sony Vegas Pro 8

Music by Steven Curtis Chapman - "Cinderella"

It was a great first time video. How did that 20 mm perform? Did it have a good shallow depth of field or did you have to back up and zoom in?
 
The 20mm is prime lens, so no zoom.. I filmed wide open at f1.7 so it gave a nice shallow DOF, hopefully you can see it in the video.

I didn't have a ND filter and it was a bright sunny day outside, so I had to shoot at about 1/800 shutter and 100 ISO.
