"Remembrance" 72hr film fest winner

So we shot this back in November for the Frederick 72hr film fest.

It was the first time with our new AF100 and we went in totally unprepared, which is unusual for us. We had been busy and so didn't have a chance to test out a workflow or even play much with the camera.

Post was a nightmare. We brought in and transcoded the footage to prores with FCPs log and transfer. Cut in Premiere pro, sent it to Davinci for color. Thats where things when south. None of the timecode with Davinci lined up. I think somewhere in the log and transfer and cutting in PP things got jacked. So we ended up reassembling the edit in Davinci and then exporting to FCP where we had to reassemble the edit again.

It worked out though and we loved shooting with the camera, it is just a lesson for us not to go into things blind...

Lenses used:
Canon 16-35 2.8L
Canon 24-70 2.8L
Canon 70-200 2.8L
Canon 35mm? TS L

Music was scored by a friend of mine to a rough cut while we were polishing and coloring.

Won:
Best of Fest
Cinematography
Best Music


Thanks for looking.
 
Sounds like a nightmare of a workflow, but looks like you got it all worked out nicely, in 72 hrs, no less.
I guess you didn't want to edit in FCP and Color?

Looks great, love the score.

This seems familiar- you'd posted it (or clips?) before, right?

Are those EF lenses? What adapter?

Thanks for sharing, and congrats.

Yeah we are really trying to move on from FCP. We have been cutting PP since FCPX came out and try not to go back to FCP only because the more we cut on PP the more experience we get with it. It's nothing to knock FCP and looking back on it we should used it. The AE integration for the one transition with the car going by was nice. Although it was a pain to color that comp, I think we had to export it separately with alpha channels and re overlay it in FCP.

And now I am experimenting with Avid so we will see how it all ends up.

Yeah, we use the Redrock adapter.
 
Yeah, I meant to say I loved the car wipe!

I'm mid-transition from Avid to P Pro, so I feel your pain! :shocked:
