Guest theweedude Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 (edited) Ok, so I'm new to cinematography, and I have no idea about anything basically, haha. I was influenced to find out more after I watched my favorite snowboard video (Afterlame) and realized that the beautiful cinematography and HD shots in the video where not shot by a GL2, haha. I'm experienced a bit in DV and DV editing. It's simple enough anyways, shoot, upload and edit. But I do not understand film and editing. I'm learning about the different size mm film and why each one is different, and things like that. Also, I'm trying to find out information about how Super 8mm and 16mm and such goes from the film in the camera to, lets say, a dvd. Can you get these types of film onto your computer and edit them? How exactly to you edit this type of film and get it onto a dvd for viewing? Also, where can I find cameras Sorry if this was an inapropriate board to post this.

Guest Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 First, off you'll be asked by other board members to post using your real name. Like most of us do here. Second, yes you can edit film footage on your computer, after it has been transfered to video tape of course and then loaded via tape into your computer.

Premium Member Paul Bruening Posted January 9, 2006 Premium Member Share Posted January 9, 2006 Hey man, You'll find more helpfull advice in the First time filmmakers forum. Most of the guys in this forum won't take the time to help you with your questions. It's not that they don't respect you. It's just that they are interested in cinematography at a different level. Good luck in your movie making, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
