Jarred First Impressions- Finally

I'm looking for a point in there and can't find one.

Maybe the point is that in a 75 000 000 production the cost of the camera rent for a one day keying job could be a big issue. If I would guess how it happened than I would guess like this:

Someone from marketing is calling Mr. Spielberg
- We have a problem with sceen nr. X
- Yeah, really? Fix it!

Phonecall to the CG company

- Hallo, are you ready to make some keying for us?
- Yes,
- This is the budget, is it ok for you?
- Yes.

In the office of the CG company
- WTF are we going to use?
- As allways , call the guy with the super35
- No.. it 's too much
- Than call the guy with the Cinealta
- Eh.... no... he costs also too much
- Can we use my Samsung cellphone, it has a camera?
- Let's try it
- No .. it looks nice but it isn't good
- Hey, I know someone with a HVX, let's see what we can do with it.

In the controll room of the studio
- Yeah... looks nice but what the f... , it has more noise than I would like to see.
- Don't worry, we gonna fix it in post.

And the end of the day Mr. Spielberg's production is happy because they have fixed a problem for a little money.

.........................................................................

The point is maybe that use of the " HVX in the $ 75 000 000 5 Oscars Spielberg movie against the 2 sec Jag with a Z1" argumentation is just patetic.

From now a HVX user will not watch the Munich as a 5 oscars movie but " My little baby in a Spielberg movie" movie.

But they shot this AT the post house. What does one say in a post house when you want to fix it in post? Don't worry, we're gonna fix it... now? There goes that excuse.

Great report, Jarred. Would also love to hear more about the stuff you did for Munich (after all, I get to see the overseas version).

I finally got to see and use HVX yesterday at CSTB 2006. Missed NatExpo where they had it in November, but oh well... And it's all I expected it to be. DVX on steroids :grin: I'm going back there today with my Powerbook, cuz they guys at Panasonic booth said I can download all of their footage from P2s to see it uncompressed at home.
$8290 for a camera + 2 4GB cards... come March

$5,273 +$560 + $560 = $6393 plus shipping...
(HVX + 4 Gig P2 Card + 4 Gig P2 Card = Come on!!)

my advice...

That was a great shoot, Jarred, thanks for hiring me. It really clarified for me how to exist in a P2 environment, and thrive. :) Joe was a remarkable person. I don't think I ever learned so many life-lessons from such an experienced and wise individual, in so little time. Also, meeting the world champs was an unbelievable treat, seeing as though I have been a boxing fan since I was a kid. Topped off with working with one of the nicest guys in showbiz, Rob Schneider. What an experience. Thanks again Jarred! It was a great month, and a documentary I'll remember for a long time.
 
Another boxing film, that's cool. Does it have a distributor/release date yet? If so, can you share?

Been thinking about that... Certainly love the US price and 60fps, but I'm in PAL country and 60hz is problem :(
 
Jarred and Rush, so you guys liked working with Rob Schneider? I'm glad to hear you guys did. I was the projectionist on the "Hot Chick", which was one of Rob's films. Most of the time he was really nice guy. He did tell me the last week of shooting to not wear my DreamWorks shirt to set anymore because it was a Disney film. I thought that to be a little strange. But other than that him and his brother, which was the producer on the film, were really nice.
 
yeah he takes a little getting used to but is a pretty cool guy when you get to know him.

Rush was only only on camera for a couple days but they seemed to have gotten along pretty well :) Rush was pimping my DVXuser shirt so Rob couldnt tell him not to wear it ha ha ha.
 
He does take a little getting use to but he is really an okay guy when he isn't stressed out. He also might have been a little angry on "The Hot Chick" because he broke his toe from accidently kicking a light stand during the last week.
 
Yo Jarred

Don't want to steer to far OT, but did you get to spend any time in the Corrales camp? Is he even in camp yet?

Just wondering if you met the guy. I'm always hearing he's such a good guy in person but then you compare that with his history. Just seems like a very complex guy.
 
I know he was hurt and they had to reschedule, but I guess these cat's don't take too much time off. Tough Sport
 
Wait, did I read that correctly; Munich?

Where the hell can I find some footage/clips?
