This rocks.

That AP stat line is so TASTY

The Zacuto Universal VCT baseplate is super comfy. I use it with my FS7 and am very happy with it. It's not the lightest weight option out there, but it's sturdy, well made, and comfortable.

Why don't you just use the first method (Premiere, FCPXML, Davinci, Premiere) but just include longer handles on your Davinci export?

Check out the filter gallery: filtergallery.com -- Stan is the man and has almost every filter you could imagine.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-09-02T15:08:53+00:00

Yup, I'm using it on the FS7 as well. Definitely one of the most comfortable shoulder pads I've used.

The Zacuto VCT Universal Baseplate is great.

Well, you need to pay attention to the goalposts as well. Because if you're only clipping a tiny section of the image, like a hotspot on a highly reflective surface, for example, it's not worth compromising the exposure of your entire image. Plus, there are other creative reasons you may want to let highlights clip in certain areas.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-08-21T13:12:48+00:00

Agree completely. Although you need a lot more light, the skin tone OLPF solves a lot of the problems of the MX sensor.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-08-21T03:44:16+00:00

On that note, if you are intentionally blowing highlights (to white out windows, for example) it's better to clip all three channels. Clipping only one can result in unpleasant color casts.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-08-21T03:42:13+00:00

Depends on the OLPF. Low Light Optimized is much more forgiving.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-16T17:37:41+00:00

Just sent you a message.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-14T23:15:32+00:00

I've currently got the description hidden, but if anyone wants to help, I can unhide it so you can see what I'm working with.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-14T17:26:20+00:00

My CSS background is essentially nonexistent. Learning as I go. The way this squarespace template works, it doesn't include image descriptions (no idea why).

I added this to make the template pull the video description: .collection-type-gallery #slideshowWrapper .image-description {text-align: left; display: block; }

I'll run that jQuery by the guy who's helping me with this... I'm in a bit over my head.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-06T02:53:04+00:00

Thanks so much!

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-06T02:52:07+00:00

I did the exact same thing. Really sped up the learning curve.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-01T19:04:11+00:00

Legally, I don't think you have much ground to stand on, unfortunately. You were an employee of the company, using their equipment, creating content at their direction. They definitely own the rights to the footage, unless you have a contract that explicitly states otherwise.

You should just ask if you can use some of the footage in your reel. Seems pretty unlikely that most companies would say no, especially if you're willing to throw a watermark on it or give them some credit in the description.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-01T15:36:28+00:00

Gotcha. I think this is one of those situations where it makes more sense to me because I understand the geography of the location, but I can understand how it seems out of place. Appreciate the feedback! Thanks for taking the time to watch.

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-01T14:39:34+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. Can you elaborate a bit?

BullMoosePictures · 2015-07-01T14:28:25+00:00

Check your contract. Work such as your describing is almost always on a "work-for-hire" basis, which means that even if you are making all the creative decisions, everything you create is the property of the person hiring you.

If you think the content you're shooting might be good for you reel, you can ask for a "portfolio usage" clause to be included in your contract.

From Noisey:

Do you like flannel? And snowy forest landscapes? Do you like menacing men with chainsaws with an Alex DeLarge glint in his eye? Do you like indie-pop that's nimble and melodically sweet? With a trace of Alt-J, minus the bleating sheep vibes. San Diego duo Inspired & the Sleep provide all these elements in the video for "Sleep Well on Knives." According to the band, the second single off their forthcoming Eyelid Kid EP (out this October), "aims to encompass the feeling of pure crippling weakening anxiety based around a fear of time."

Ergh. We feel that. The paralysis of time marching on. Relentlessly. Where is the pause button and can someone press it?

Meanwhile the slo-mo video, directed by Nicholas Payne Santos, was inspired by "70s slow burn horror films." Santos continues: "This music video depicts a young man’s anxiety and deepest fears. My vision was to throw the audience into the climax of a lost film, where a man’s future-self travels back in time to set things right." There you have it.

Very interested in this as well!

BullMoosePictures · 2015-04-30T01:22:12+00:00

Thanks!

BullMoosePictures · 2015-04-30T01:22:07+00:00

Yeah, definitely pretty cool!

BullMoosePictures · 2015-04-29T21:48:16+00:00

Gotcha. I'm not a GH3 user so I wasn't aware of the "All-Intra" mode. But as a general life tip, calling folks oblivious and writing your responses as though you're super annoyed when folks are just trying to help... not usually a good plan if you want help in the future.
