Grabs from new short: "Identity" (dvx100+sgpro)

Lawsuit_Boy said:
Looks pretty great, Tomas! Some of the images exhibit obvious small sensor blow outs, but it's not distracting as it's a part of the film's identity from the grabs I've seen. It seems like a very interesting take on identity crisis and people trying to find a sense of "togetherness" in a world that practically prevents it. I'm glad to see more people shooting on the trusty dvx-100a still. I don't think I'll ever get rid of mine, haha.

Thank you man:)

Yeah the search for ones identity is one that we all must go through.. but in this world.. it's easy to get sidetracked..

Hehe:P
I'm in a pickle actually..
I don't want to get rid of my dvx AND I want HD.. BUT I think I have to sell the dvx to actually get an HD cam.. it's so irritating..
 
Heh, I know what you mean. Unfortunately, I went on bhphotovideo.com to get an estimate for what I could get with a vx-2000 and a dvx-100a both, and even though the dvx still only has about 180 hours on the heads (got it in 2004) and the vx is fairly used but still in great shape for its age, it was estimating that I'd get about 1700 dollars out of the deal. If I traded in, I'd have enough for a low end HD camera which the dvx would still beat the pants off of.

I guess I'm not going HD for a while. Had to buy a new car recently as well, so it's even further away. :(
 
Tomas, if you don't mind what are your scene settings? I really love the look you got out of it.

Also, thanks for putting me up on the higher shutter speeds. made a huge difference!

Hi man:)

My pleasure! It's amazing how much the shutter actually can do with the footage.


I posted the settings on page 1 here, but I can post it again:

Scene file: F6

Detail level: -4
Master Ped: -8

Fps: 25p
Shutter: 1/120

And I colorcorrect with the Magic Bullet plugin in premiere pro.
