Hi Guys,
The red light effects were done in post to make things look even more organic. Unlike a lot of the stuff i have shot, i wanted to have quite a free feel to it and shot almost the entire video on a steadicam which i borrowed from a friend of mine.
The light loss with the adapter i have is not that much, and only really noticable at night. I have a set of 4 blondes and 5 readheads which help on the lighting side, although rarely use them all at once.
All the videos on my site were shot with either an xl1s or the fx1 more recently.
I always do a lot of colour grading with combustion or shake... in this instance i was combustion, although i did use after effetcs in the past.
The slow motion was done in FCP using joes filters. I have to deinterlace all the footage anyway, and joes filters, just turn fields into frames so really there is no resolution loss over the other footage, and you get pretty much 50p, which works really nicely.
Thanks for all the comments, and sorry for the late reply... my broadband sucks, and i am having to use dial up at the moment till it is fixed.... DOH!!!!
Later... Nick
