Cameron Rains Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Hi everybody this is my first time on this website and I thought I would share my first serious beginner film that I put together (sorry for the bad grammar). This was filmed in Tempe Arizona for my company Pointblankperformance, all shot on the Nikon D3100! I filmed with the Glide Gear 23inch slider, ePhotoInc Mini Jib, Polaroid Chest Stabilizer, cheap tripod, Ravelli ATD tripod dolly and the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D lens. There were some slight trouble with the editing software (Adobe After Effects) but I thought it came together alright for a small budget film. I would your guy's feedback for my video! It can be anything, seriously I'm new and I want to learn more! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Tyler Purcell Posted August 4, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted August 4, 2015 Welcome to the forum! I would have liked it to be narrated, seeing a bunch of car shots isn't that interesting unfortunately. I do marketing work like this all the time and getting a "professional" looking image/feel is important, but telling people something about what you do, is even more important. Here is an example of what I mean. It shows off the product, but it also tells a story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry DeGala Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) It was nice and dreamy until 1:06, the goose neck trailer loomed its horrid head. :(There was much jello-ing in the extreme closeup shots. You can mitigate the jello-ing with good tripod, beanbag in tight spaces, or just avoid using the long telephoto and push in close with medium or wide lens. As for mise-en-scene, you picked some great angles with shallow depth of field and racking focus, but money shot can be ruined by extraneous equipment like the trailer.Great effort for a first start. Much kudos! Edited August 9, 2015 by Larry DeGala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
