  1. Hey Gregg, I actually have, I have yet to join, but will
  2. Yes, I just got this steadicam, so I was just throwing it out there.....I'm using a Lumix DSLR, have the drop time to around just shy of 3 second, but always adjusting to better balance....just curious what you all have experienced.....
  3. I got my first steadicam (FlyCam 3000), I shoot mostly low budget commercials to recently other work coming in, but have never taken a steadicam class/workshop.....I was wondering, I have it balance just right (top to bottom for the 2 sec drop), but when putting my vest on, I was wondering if more bottom weight would be good or better to give me more smooth shots???? thanks for any input
  4. It's hip hop, so was figuring 24fps, since It's mostly steadicam
  5. I'm about to shoot my first music video, never done one yet, but I'm just wondering best frame rate, esp with syncing music.....Ive mostly worked on every other type of video, commercials to documentaries so just checking ....
  6. Just curious, if anyone knows anything about the Phoenix video production market, if you have to already live there or planning on moving there to find work as a Videographer/Editor, Producer/Editor or do companies only hire freelancers ???
  7. I haven't worked with any DP's, but while in the Air Force and in college, living in various cities, got in touch with various DP's, just asking to watch them work, mainly through an email or an actual letter. Two DP's responded, and even though I didn't work for them them, they were so gracious as to allow me to watch....Dean Semler (ASC/ACS) being the major one, while the late Ken Lamkin (ASC) was the first DP I ever met. I wish I had the opportunity to work for or with these great and talented men, but haven't yet, but I did go on my own path and this past year, recognized for my Cinematography from several national film fest awards for a doc short I made on a Canon T2i....Hoping to just work more and be inspired by the great talents out there
  8. Hey Guys, this is a new one for me, I am encoding a documentary for a class reunion. I am using Adobe Premiere CC, the DJ who is playing video told me to encode to MP4 for his video display.....I haven't encoding in MP4, only WMV, MOV and H.264. I doing tests, but can't seem to get it right ???? My presets are only 3GPP 352X288 (??) My video settings dont have SD, HD or 4K ????? Can anyone help, anyone have any experience with Virtual DJ, as I don't ????
  9. Just looking for a range of prices for a 10 hour day shoot, in a town 2 hours from me, with rented gear, just trying to figure out a good day rate for everything. I've normally used my own DSLR's but had to rent a FS100 package, so just wondering.....thanks
  10. I was very honored with being a the cover story in my hometown's Sunday paper this past week. Not a big city, like Hollywood NY, but still very honored... http://www.minotdailynews.com/news/local-news/2017/03/hollywood-magic/
  11.

  12. This is way cool...... http://www.theasc.com/site/blog/web-exclusives/caleb-deschanel-asc-makes-unique-gift-to-asc-museum/
  13. Here's my reel, but am trying to figure out what to cut.... https://vimeo.com/196890169
  14. Competitions are good, esp since many professionals will view your work, never a bad sign, esp if your work is good..... I was a judge/panelist at a very small film fest in August of this year, so much fun to watch the work of amateurs to experienced pros. Never hurts to put your work out there, you never know who will see it and want to get in touch with you. I made a documentary short, have already won Best Cinematography from a film fest in Arizona, plus am Semi-Finalist at LA CineFest, plus Officially Selected at LA Shorts, plus another in Delaware. Great to put on a resume, so what the hell, right ????
