Man, that was burning hell of a Job! They must be very pleased with it! YOU must feel very pleased with it! Great, great job Eppdidit! i think i saw an early version and once finish you nailed it! Tell us how works out there!
Great vid, one of the best I've seen. What grip equipment did you have/use?
Also I like the image shake effect. How did you do that. Almost a ripple FX.
Good work man, someone will notice this.
J.P.
Man,
this was smooooooooooooooooooth, your editing is just perfect!
You even couldt have skipped some of the in-ya-face effects - you've got such a strong plot going on, your filmlook is great, the vid surely works without the lighttracing and the fake glitches... ah, forget what i said, this thing ROCKS!!!
...and don't forget to share some production notes with us (how did you check for contrast? DVrack? Is your dolly DIY?)
sorry I haven't returned any thread on this post. I haven't received any emails to notify it was getting any notice!! Might of had something to do with the new interface in here...Anyway, I appreciate all the cool comments on support!!
The best advice I can share with this project must be my approach to pre-planning. I am a stickler for storyboarding!! I was just talking the other night about the importance of having your shots in order before going out to shoot and this gives you much more room to play with improv shots once your at the location. If your prepared when you get there, then your relaxed and, at least for me, able to to come up with more ideas on the spot.
Trust me when I tell you, I don't think of myself being better than the majority of people I see on this site. I just enjoy what I do and I've been blessed to get a chance to do it for a living! Like the old cliche goes.."If I can do it, anybody can do it." You just have to get out there and practice.
My equipment is very basic, I just take of advantage of each one's capabilities:
I'm DVX100 for LIFE!!! Shot all the band in 24P and the story is all in 60i (for slo-mo purposes).
Cobra Crane and Dolly was purchased from promax.com for approx. $1,000. If you have the extra cash to get these 2 pieces of equip. I guarantee it will take your productions to another level!!
