Nice reel. I was entertained throughout the whole time. Keep it up!

Here is my 2014 DP reel. It's a combination of music videos and commercials. All my project shot on the red epic, red scarlet, and Canon 5D mrk III. Any feedback is welcomed... <embed src="https://vimeo.com/85780201" autostart="false" />

Check out this project that I worked on as the DP. With the small skeleton crew that we had, I am very happy with the results. Please take a look and enjoy. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

if you can fit it within your budget, Why not either replace or add "spacelight" to your lighting package. They always work great for overhead lighting.

I shot a spec commercial with my crew a couple of weeks ago. Please tell me what you think. Feedback is appreciated, Thanks! Chanel Spec.

I've attach a picture to this post. But, I am trying to achieve a similar lighting setup to this photo. I what them to be mostly backlit with with little to no light leaking towards the front. And also, I have a little cash to play around with when it comes to equipment. So, any help would be great full... I was original thinking about rigging 5-6 single bulb kinos to the ceiling and dimming them with ND. And using "Leko" to bring up the light in the background This scene will mostly be underexpose...and mostly backlit...

Im shooting a indie feature length film soon. And im trying to figure out which camera would be good for a POV type shooting. A Panasonic AG-HMC150 or JVC GY-HMQ10 4K Compact Handheld Camcorder?

Cool...Thanks for the comment.

Im curious to how they achieved the moving light effect in this music video. It moves back and forth or side to side. Drake - Take Care ft. Rihanna

Hey, Thanks for the advice. I looked into the coral filters and it seems like its what im looking for. Once again thanks.

I need help achieving this color. It's a chocolatey color with dusk/dawn look. Im not sure wether I can just do the color correction/grading in post or try to achieve it while I am shooting during production. Any advice/pointer would help. Thanks And I also went to lee's filter website and found 3 different gel... here is the link. I dont know if they would help out. http://www.leefilters.com/lighting/colour-list.html Number: 742, 653, 746

yea you guys are right. Its just that in the area I'm in, there is work but they rarely follow up with you even if you volunteer your services and follow up with them daily. (sighs) And the school I'm in, I feel like I've outgrown it to a point there is nothing left for them to teach me. I would love to attend NYU or USC but money ain't looking right. But if I get up more than I fall down opportunity should be knocking at my door soon. Thanks for the advice.

Do anyone know of any good cinematography workshop sites that I can view to check for upcoming events? (in the US)

You made a good point. I see what your saying. Thanks for your quick response.

By any chance do you know of any sites that has information on cinematography workshops within the US?

Well you made a point about the school being in a place where I may not be able to make good connection with people in the industry. But do a diploma or a certificate really matters in this industry? And is trade schools ok to go to?

Currently I am at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale and it's time for me to make a move. I think I've gotten to a point where the school is not offering the help that I need in Cinematography. I recently applied at the NYFA to the 1 year Cinematography program got accepted but unfortunately I'm unable to handle the tuition, especially with this economy. I ran across this school MPI, Motion Picture Institute, in Michigan and it seems like a good school that I could learn from and also afford. NYFA is 34k for tuition and MPI is 11K and both program is one year. I wanted to know have anyone heard anything about this school because I can't pull up any reviews on it. But I'm very interested in there program.

Thanks for all the advice...ill see how things go

Below I have a music video that has an effect that I want to use but im not sure how to do it. Every time I ask someone I always get a different answer. I want to know how to make the lights glare or flare the way it did in the music video below. And if this can be done in camera or in post I would like to know how to achieve it...

I meant as in different types such as zoom, primes, long, short, etc.

I'm a newbie when it comes to different types of lenses. I was wonder, were can I go to get info on lenses?
