I got my first video assigment few weeks back, and just like in photography, I found myself stuck within the settings and capabilities of the camera. Not that I'm some uber-filmmaker (Im not at all) but it just happens that I have a frame, a sequence already in mind, its just that camera cant...

Hello all, This is a little video I've made few months ago. The idea was just to see how the whole process of filming the car in motion goes. It's possibly the first thought-out movie I ever shot. The equipment used was pretty basic. TZ5 and a generic camera tripod. Since we didn't have enough...

The dyno idea seems practical and most reasonable if there is resources...but the thing is, the nearest dyno is too far away for the video I'm making. The car is 4WD so I can't even jack the car up and rev it, but even if I could I wouldn't like to do it that way since I think car sound is...

Will I be needing some sort of field recorders for this? I don't quite understand that part of separate audio recording...anyone care to explain quickly ? :)

Thanks a bunch for the insightful help guys!! Let me try to describe the project, if it gets the green light and we get the budget. It's a trip we're planning to take on a boat, for a month, so there will be a lot of boat scenes (2 boats), engine sounds, pan shots of the ride, all that... And...

Well if I get some sponsors interested and pull few strings I think I may have a 10000 $ at my disposal for camera and equipment. About the "sound is half of the experience" remark - I know :) I'm a rookie but when filming I always stick to "my rules" - I never ever zoom when recording, I try...

Hey Recently I decided to persuade my film making aspirations and go for my first project. My idea is to make a documentary for a trip I'm going to make. Basic ideas are; - edit the short clips of the footage "on terrain", I don't know the correct term but my idea is to edit the footage every...
