Thanks iamloser...
It is the same DVD that you have - the "new" part is a joint venture with dvxuser.

We figured that there are a lot of members of the DVXuser community who could be interested (or may even benefit) from checking out the DVD.

I will try to answer any and all questions that are raised here.

I also purchased the DVD and thoroughly enjoyed the film.

The behind the scenes footage was really interesting too, especially finding out how they made the opening credits.

Well worth the money!!

Re: Art History DVD now available !!!

The trailer looks great. I'm interested to know:

1) Which model Arriflex 6x6 Mattebox was chosen and why (I assume for 4 stages but why that particular 6x6)?

2) How did it attach?

3) What kind of filter combinations were used when it was maxxed out.

Thanks,
Snoddy

Re: Art History DVD now available !!!

I've asked Jarred to help answer some of these...

but basically I don't know exactly which model of 6x6 matte box was used (it was 6x6 because the 4x4's weren't enough to cover the anamorphic adaptor - without butchering it which we couldn't do since it wasn't ours)

However I do know that the camera was mounted to a cheeseplate and then the rod system attached to that...
basically all the accessories were cine-camera accessories we just mounted them onto a DVX.

As for the actual filters used - we had chocolate, orange, yellow, promist, ultracon...some were used in combination with each other but don't remember exactly which ones. (that might be another one Jarred can answer if he remembers)

The mattebox was an arri MB-14 with a 6 stage plug. the box was  mounted to cheeseplate on a  2" bench riser then to the arri wheels. The Anamorphic butted against the donut on the mattebox and blacked out with tape.

here it is:

no orange filters but we did use chocolate, yellow +3 and +2, and a combination of ultracons that went up to +8 at times. some black promists as well but todd probally would use nets now. Antique Suede would also be in there.
 
Re: The first official DVXuser short film on DVD !

Thanks for the praise Eshi - your order has just been sent.

Hey you guys who ordered recently - when you get the orders feel free to ask any more questions if they come up (and they aren't addresed in the commentaries)...I will try to answer them (or I'll pester Jarred until he does) here...

Thats Funny
I was going to ask the same question.
I can not use paypal
A money order would work great for me also.
 
Re: The first official DVXuser short film on DVD !

I just ordered my copy.

I am always happy to support another DVX'er.

Plus, my short film "The Aggie" will be out on DVD next week and I am curious to see how it matches up against "the big boys".
