I am currently working on a short film about the life of a mime. And the need for sound effects for his mimed actions is required. For example: when the Mime pretend to clean a window, you will hear that "squeeking" noise. I was just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction in...

Sorry, you guys are definitely right $200 for mic&boom is unrealistic. I mis-calculated. As for the 7D vs T2i, you're right. I am a photographer and the ergonomics of the 7D is far superior to that of the Rebel. And the images really speak for themselves.

I am a HUGE advocate for indie film making with the Canon DSLR system. But for $2500, I really don't think this is a feasible plan. 5D mark II will be roughly a $5000 investment (body, 1 zoom lens, 1 prime, sound equip, tripod) and if you want a follow-focus rig, that's another $800 to $2500...

It is the same song - "Por Una Cabeza". Probably one of my favorites. Ever.

Here is another one of my favorite. (If you guys haven't noticed already, I enjoy musically driven scenes :P) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=in5EPHVgcXg&feature=related

Again, thanks for all the kind comments. Nicklaus / Cracker Funk - I wanted to show the extent of the cobbler's love for shoes and not buying any shoes spoke louder than if he did. My team and I actually debated this quite a bit. I think artistically, it spoke more for the cobbler not to buy...

Thanks for all the generous comments. Firstly, the visual "effects", if you will, is the result of using a 35mm adapter on Sony Handycam. I'm not sold on the results, but it creative a nice feel for the type of short film it was. FlandriaVCF - is it too long or does it feel too long? maybe...

6min is a tad on the long side. More of a "product-placement-short-story" than a commercial, but you get the point...

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. Agreeing with my opinion is not mandatory :p

I co-wrote and produced this short/commercial for Nike about 4 years ago. My friends have always told me how "great" it was, but I'd really like some unbiased critic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4wH4C1WjMk Looking forward to hearing from the Forum.

Personally I think primes are the way to go, unless you are actually using the zoom in a shot, leave those alone. I use old Nikkor lenses on the 5Dmk2. Stunning results. I have a 24/2.0, 35/1.4, 50/1.4, 80/1.8 and 135/2.8. They are not as sharp as the Canon Primes, but it has that dreamy...

Are you secretly JJ Abrams? Lens flares coming out the yinyang :p But joking aside, solid video. A little generic for this type of music, but very well executed. *Thumbs up*

Funny concept, but execution was a little lacking. The added vignetting was a little distracting, really made the picture feel claustrophobic. Directing was also a tad on the clumsy side, you really should've milked the "sex appeal" of the beautiful girl more (afterall it is for godaddy).

Been surfing this site for a while now, haven't really had the courage to post much. But this is an interesting thread and I would like to contribute. Here is my favorite scene: Wong Kar-Wai's "In the Mood for Love" I think the mood created by the music and cinematography is simple amazing...
