Kevin Klein

Dig the glasses and the prints...very cool quality to the paper. Top light works well to pull those dents out in the face and for the contrast/harsh look.

Check out some new screens from a recent shoot... What camera did I use? :) http://www.flickr.com/photos/buttbongfiest...57603444571810/

Okay, I've searched forums and wikipedia and I'm still confused on this 24pA thing. I am editing a project of mixed media (720, 24pA and 16mm transferred to DVCAM). This will be going back to film. Questions: What capture settings should I use (DV NTSC, DV NTSC 2:3:3:2)? If I capture without a capture card (firewire) will I lose quality in 720p? (firewire vs. HDMI vs SDMI) What should my timeline be set at (24, 23.987...) Because of the volume of footage coming in, I need to get things right now instead of later. These are probably very simple answers, but I've just had it to ^ here with 2:3:3:2 pull downs.

First, thanks for the long response. Let me specify: shooting low budget narrative's and music videos. Camera is a given...I'm thinking smaller items, things that you need to help you out of a tight situation...things that have universal/multiple uses like c-stands, or any type of tool, etc.

Any of you guys/gals help me with the basic equipment someone starting in cinematography should have? From lights to c-41's.

Judging by the first part, looks like you'd be perfect for showtime tittie porn. And WTF is that bondage thing with that shower cap and eye balls?
