Hey, just thought I would share this clip with everyone who uses the old DVX100. Yes - you can shoot a great movie in the dark with an older DVX, you just have to light it right.

This is a film we shot a couple years ago but is just now getting some recognition (Best Picture - ShowMe Film Fest, Telly Award for Lighting, Telly Award for Sound Design, the AVID Booth at Sundance Film Fest 2006). Most of the film was shot in the middle of nowhere with a generator and some clever lighting techniques.

Shoot me an e-mail if you liked what you saw: jason at chroniczing.com.
 
Haaaaaa. I loved it. Excellent work. Story definately carried this. Camera work fit the story well. Lighting could of been a little better. Acting was great, the clown was the best. Only thing that took me out of the movie briefly was when she comes out the bathroom and heads left to right but next shot of her fet were going right to left. This is nitpicking maybe. The lighting of her feet while running was almost nill. Other thatn that I thought it was great. I actually watched it the whole way through. That says something.
 
lol the clown is great, especially when he was groovin out in the end credits...even though he scares me.
 
Mmmmmm.Not so sure dude.Couldnt watch all the way through.Story lacked and some pretty average shots.Not sure about acting either.Sure wat do i know.
 
haha, funny... the clown looks scary and yeah the dance during the credits takes the cake for the coolest scene ... the girl is easy on the eyes too :)
 
Thumbs Up!

Thumbs Up!

That was cool man, nice shot coverage, perfect 'motivated lighting' in dark scenes...and I love how you exposed the people who didn't call you back. Also, the clown dancing during the credits was funny.
 
I had to give this one a bump. Reminded me of Stephen King's "It". I will never hear anyone say the word "Sausage" without thinking of that clown again.
 
wow

wow

anybody in here who says this is not great is just jealous.
How did you managa that excellent night lighting please tell
 
...What did I just watch? haha, seriously though, I thought it was a riot. The clown character was so far out there (I also loved his dancing in merriment at the end with the sausage :) ). The lighting was terrific, especially in some of the exterior shots in the woods. Great stuff! :thumbsup:
 
is it just me or did the lighting remind u of that old nick show "are you afraid of the dark?"
