I had the great pleasure of speaking with director Ken Simpson and DP Alex Dacev, two filmmakers from Canada. In the podcast we discuss filmmaking, using the 5D for narrative film, tools, post production, and tips on starting in filmmaking.
I have been shooting a lot of podcast episodes for the Home Film School Student series and thought I would share how we shoot and put one of them together.
Have questions about DSLR video gear? What camera, what gear, lenses etc? I get TONS of emails, blog comments, and Vimeo comments about what kit people should get. Recently my fellow HDSLR blogger Adriel Brunson shared with me a guide he wrote answering these questions. The DSLR Video Buyer’s Guide is a 50 page guide for all levels of DSLR users.
Adriel Explains the Guide:
Adriel covers all the key equipment areas – cameras, lenses, support systems, audio, and more. For each category he breaks down what’s needed for Basic, Intermediate and Advanced productions. Adriel also takes a look at each category from the perspective of a Photographer, Video Professional and Aspiring Film Maker. Read the full article →
I have recently been following the SCENEBLOCK gang, and have really enjoyed their work and projects. Recently they shared a great little DIY project to improve the quality of the tiny built in mics on Canon DSLRs. I am definitely going to give this a shot and would like to see how well it performs in several different sound environments.
Check out this video showing some results of the muff being attached, then check out the guide. Read the full article →
