GH1 Oreo commercial 1080p 24p

very nice. Mind sharing some info about the settings and lens uses ?

Sure. Smooth mode, -2 Contrast, -2 NR. I used a Ciecio7 lens adapter FD mount. 24mm for the wide, 50mm for everything else and just moved the camera in for the close ups. 500 watt soft box just above the camera to emulate the ceiling lights. Shot 1080p and that's about it.
 
I liked the warm tone on this one. Not so keen on the quick cuts, though I can't watch Cribs on MTV for the same reason. They give me a headache :). Also not an Oreo fan, but I'm sure they taste lovely!
 
Some nice elements, but if you're looking for critical feedback...

I think the shots needed to be tightened up. The wide establishing shot is weak. The box, table, character and dark styleless room form a poorly composed wide shot. Perhaps lowering the camera would've improved it. That was the most disturbing thing for me. Need to tighten up a bit... but the close ups and ending were much better. Then, the idea of mushing up the Oreos didn't really look very appetizing, so not really a great pitch for Oreos on that level. Lastly, music... really need to change that.

I didn't have a real place to shoot the scene, so we ended up just doing it at my house at the counter. We wanted to have a backdrop and a white counter, or a seemless colored counter top and background, but we didn't have any resources with which to do so, so that's what we ended up using.
