Mucking around with HDV

Recommended Posts

So Brendon and myself each bought HDV camcorders and have been assing around for the past 2 weeks learning everything we can.

This is how this short HD clip turned out with HV30 + skateboard + e46 :D

Going to try some Topgear style shots soon.

EDIT: Aspect ratio fixed :)

I just recently bought the same camera, and love it.

What are you using for editing, storage & burning/output?

Yeah they do rock for so many reasons. This was brendons clip.

Was shot in 25p / TV mode for more dynamic colour as cinemode is a bit flat for lots of light. Didnt lock off the exposure for this unfortunitly.

Using sony vegas as premier just seems to be overly complicatd when importing and exporting. We are using the same processing I use on my digi SLR camera shots .. just trying to perfect it for film as its a little different.

Jochen: Yes, a merlin is the next thing we are looking at. That and some more car camera mounts / camera crane. This clip was a bit of a fluke, brendon had the camera on a skateboard on a cheap camera tripod with a crap head (hence the jerkiness) and was just mucking around with doing a dolly shot, I just so happened to be coming home .. hence my small stop to look at what the hell he was doing :D

Sounds cool - so keen to see but stupid work content filter tells me vimeo is "social networking" and therefore blocked :rolleyes:

Needed an N/D filter on the top - not the bottom of the shot.

I can show you the correct workflow if you want Josh :-)
