Don't know if this has been posted here yet but this is one of the best music vids I have seen produced on the gh1 so far I think. Really good.

Hey everyone, thanks Blackout - I just visited here ready to post the video, and see that you've done it! I directed, camera operated and edited the Habit music video.

I just posted a new thread about the video with a little back-story in the HDSLR Screening Room:

Sweet! Well then, I'll ask the same question I always ask: please describe the lighting. What did you use, how did you softern it etc.

Also what ISO was this shot at?

The DP used minimal lighting for the acting scenes - the beach was one small rented 6000W generator and with a 1K with a large grifflon , and I believe a 650W far off to provide light to the background. Minimal stuff - the lenses were fast F1.4 or F1.8 primes (with the crop factor acting as a 100mm and I forget what the other lens was).

The band scene was two generators and a combination of 1Ks, 650Ws, and a I believe a 350W - in the middle of a wet forest. The hanging lights were just 100W bulbs.

ISO was between 400-600 I believe (the alley was the darkest). The band scene was probably around 400. This was shot 4-5 months ago, and only edited/released recently, so difficult to recall!
