Yeah, Vimeo is pretty much rubbish these days, with their adaptive streaming. For about a year though Ive been using these guys, they're the only site, it seems, that actually allow you to force HD. When I share a video, I steer well clear of Vimeo and always go to Iplayer. The quality is superb compared to YouTube and Vimeo. I pay for membership, but they're doing first year free for newbies. I can't recommend them enough to be honest. Here's some footage I shot on an old RED Scarlet http://iplayerhd.com/player/video/57a4b81c-47b3-4c87-afd7-6c7f877bf6a7/share

To be honest, I think the second cut is on the action, she has begun turning and it cuts just as she does. Given, a more ideal or obvious point within the action might be better. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll post an update tomorrow, with your suggestion.

The brief is one wide angle, with the turn. This is a regular gig, over two years. But client always open to suggestions. The introduction of the second angle is a new thing. The cut back doesn't feel seamless enough to me. Despite cutting on the action. I think it's the static tripod wide shot that makes the cut so visible and jarring? I think I'll shoot a third extreme close up shot, where fabric covers the entire frame. This might make the cut back to the wide shot more comfortable, like with a black frame. Ideally, I'd like something like - wide shot dolly horizontal or arc, with the close up on jib/crane. Something really dynamic!

Hi all, I'm shooting some e.commerce video. I'm experimenting with two angles. This is ok, I like the first cut to the close up, but when it cuts back to the wide angle, it feels rather choppy and harsh. What can I do make this flow a little more fluid? Camera movement? An extreme close up before cutting back to wide? https://vimeo.com/194381615 PASSWORD is 'pw' Many thanks, David

Thanks, all, for your info. Research has been done now, I tend to avoid the tech and work on technique, but I'm learning that theory is kind of important too. Many thanks again, from sunny Dublin, Ireland

Hi all, I work in a fashion studio. Currently we shoot DSLR and consequently get moire from time to time. We're in the market for a new camera which would produce less moire on stripes etc. Budget around £2000/3000 Thanks in advance and apologies if this isn't relevant forum

I love the look and feel of most of that. Good man

Fantastic shots, framing, cinematography. The look is quite bland though. Unless of course that was a creative decision, but my guess is that no grading occurred? What did you shoot on? Thanks and good work, Dave

Thanks for the comment, it means a lot. This was my first project with a 'real' camera (non DSLR), and the start of my portfolio going forward. I'm fortunate enough to live a couple of hours away from scenes like in the video, and I've always been a fan of the atmospheric electronic stuff. And of course landscape and ambient always connect nicely. Cheers again

Hi all, I'm David of Dublin, Ireland. Looking at some very nice reels here. Well done. The following is a music video I filmed for an excellent Icelandic ambient electronics group. I'm using iplayerhd for my video hosting but the way, which totally kills YouTube and Vimeo in terms of quality, I recommend. Have a look, many thanks: http://www.iplayerhd.com/player/video/57a4b81c-47b3-4c87-afd7-6c7f877bf6a7/share

Great stuff
