So this is a video that I shot a couple weeks ago down in Hollywood. I'm not sure what kind of deal the director is planning to get with the video but I did it just to have something on my reel. Its a re-mix of the re-mix of the MM "Tainted Love" song...if that makes any sence. I don't think this is work safe as it has two girls making out and in a couple scenes they are topless.

It was all shot in 720p 24N and a lot of 60fps.

Nice one,

the first shots (night outside, first inside shots) looked kind of videoish, but maybe this was due to the lightning...keep going, you definitly love the timelapse thing and make people love it...!
 
NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!
Oh and the video was good too... jajaja j/k
The only thing I thought could need more help was the color correction... I woud've dropped the blacks... But other than that it looks cool!
 
I haven't done any CC yet. But I really like the look of the footage right out of the camera. Glad you liked it DW.

First things first. I loved the video from start to end. It was well put together and thought out well. I have a few questions to ask you if you don't mind.

Questions

1. Did you use any other lenses for your HVX200? If so which one?

2. In the scene when the two ladies were in the hotel room, did you use any other lights other than the lights in the room?

3. When the two ladies were walking in the scene where the wall was painted, did you slow down on your timeline? Or did you use under cranking?

4. Did you shoot using P2 cards? Or hard drive?


I look forward to seeing more.

Michael, glad you liked it and he's the answers to your questions.

1.) I didn't use any other lenses on my HVX. I just worked on the long end of the lens like I always try to.

2.) The first bedroom scene I used one softbox that was almost over the top of the camera. You can kind of see a difference in light off the faces of the girls.

3.) I shot that scene with the murial all at 24N 60fps. Then I would just speed it up in FCP. Most of the shots were at 60fps.

4.) I shot on P2 cards.

Tom, I think my detail setting was -3 and the gamma Black Press.
 
there was one shot about 60% of the way though, of the older woman in a black teddy turning tricks, lit from the side with nice rich shadows, and a highlight. Thats good. Make the rest of it look liek that.


I liek the arctic monkeys: "when the sun goes down" like, "story as a music video with no mention of the band". That takes guts, also, marilyn manson probably was unavailable for a shoot......

dude I think I know on of those girls, the tall one with the long hair, hmmmmmm where? brain racking!!!!
, great video, smart use of the stock lens and low detail settings more on the filmic side.

been a while since i have seen some raw hvx stuff, thanks for the post,

the directoe must have been a lady I assume, because the nudity is on the artistic side of things, not some cookie perversion.

The director mainly did all the story stuff while I got to come up with my own shots and frame them how I saw fit.
 
Marilyn Manson actually covers that song, originally it was by Soft Cell, an 80's synth duo. I sort of like both versions, the edit on the video of the MM version is a bit more dynamic, but yeah...just thought I'd throw that out there.

Who did the edit?
 
Yeah the girls did a really good job acting their parts and they were fun to work with. There were some problems with the production, mainly people not knowing what they wanted. But I'm use to that by now. It seems that most projects that I work on that aren't mine people don't know what they want. They might have some loose understanding of the story they wrote. But have no idea what they want to see in the frame.
 
Of all the clips shown here this one is my favorite. The mix of colors and emotions plus the storyline kept my attention. And no it wasn't because of the nudity... Thanks!
 
Personally I think it would work with no nudity. But it does help sell the passion a little bit. I also haven't heard any complaints about it yet. Thanks for the nice comments Phototroll.
