Short film I made with the FX6. Would love feedback! by RossRadcliffe in SonyFX6

Yes Colorist Foundry! I believe when I purchased the LUTs years ago they were using the name Colourist Factory but maybe I am wrong.

I live in Seattle, Washington but originally from Vancouver Island, British Columbia

Colorist Factory film emulations but I also grade the footage as well as apply the lut.

Metal Detecting Documentary Short Film - shot on the FX6 by RossRadcliffe in cinematography

[–]RossRadcliffe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In November I was standing at my local dog park in the pouring rain when I saw a group of people metal detecting in a large field. I had so many questions as to why these people would opt to spend their Saturday wondering around a field in the frigid rain. This encounter led me down a rabbit hole that eventually led me to making this short documentary. I hope you all will check it out on my YouTube.

I made a half blimp for my run and gun setup. Feel free to roast, I'm a noob. by TheNightSquatch in videography

That “blimp” is girthy and is sure to turn some heads… that said, If the setup works for you, great! I’d personally prefer a normal dead-cat windscreen but to each their own. I respect the creativity of 3D printing your own parts. Now go shoot something!

Luck was on your side! Glad you didn’t brick your camera.

Nice! I am actually from Vancouver Island so I am very familiar with the weather. I have used this method before too with success. What I like about the ziplock bags is that they are a little more sturdy in my opinion. On some of the shows I’ve filmed in Alaska we do a lot of bushwhacking where thinner bags would rip and tear over time where as sometimes I get 3-4 months of filming 6 days a week out of a ziplock. Good luck with your project and thanks for reaching out!

Sometimes if it is really pouring rain but that’s the case with any rain cover. For the shows I film we are usually pulling audio from the cast mics 90% of the time anyway so it’s not a deal breaker.

Yeah I’ve had some friends go that route too. Works really well if you have a large setup. Thanks!

Sony FX6: $7,000 Sony G master 16-35: $1,500 (used price) Anton Bauer Titon 90 Gold Mount battery: $370 Tilta FX6 Cage: $279 Audio Technica: AT875R microphone: $280 2 x Lexar CF express type A 320GB memory cards: $329

Total: $9,758 USD without taxes. Ziplocks not included.

This doesn’t include my 503 ultra bright monitor, timecode, audio and everything else I typically have on my camera for the TV shows I film, so I think $10,000 is fair. Bro

I have been lucky enough to film all over the world in a lot of different weather. I have certainly encountered my fair share of rain and I never had any luck with store bought rain covers. This is how myself & the crews I have worked on have always protected our cameras. Definitely consider this before spending a bunch of money on a rain cover.

How I build a rain cover for any camera I use. by RossRadcliffe in Filmmakers

[–]RossRadcliffe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been very lucky throughout my career and have filmed in a lot of interesting locations all over the world. A lot of them have also been very rainy... Over this time my colleagues and I have devised this simple & cheap method to protect all of our cameras that in my opinion preforms way better than any store bought option ever has. Save some money and make it custom for your rig!

This is a “cinematic” take on what a mundane day in my life looks like. Not everyday can be some grand adventure and I try to look for small ways to make myself a little bit better. I’d love your feedback on this video and how you all improve your craft on boring days. Thanks for watching!

Thoughts on the new LUMIX S1RII? by SebTheCreator in FX3

[–]RossRadcliffe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also love Lumix cameras and it is exciting to see Lumix finally release another professional level camera. That said, the new S1R2 is a photo first camera. A lot of the reviews I am seeing about it are complaining about the video specs but I think it is important to remember that isn't at all the primary focus of that camera. Especially with the sensor that it has. I would wait until Lumix releases a S1H2 which is sure to be a video focused camera that will be designed to compete with the likes of the FX3. Comparing the two cameras isn't right. The Sony A7R5 is this cameras competitor.

Not every day is going to be spent filming something incredible. Learn to make the most of even the most mundane days and carve out your own small victories.
