Deathly Pressure

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Speaking of film-making, here’s a little something Flossie and I shot while we were in America a few months ago. It’s not very good, but it’s ours.

Deathly Pressure from Jonathan Sanderson on Vimeo.

Shot with a Panasonic GF1 stills camera (unhacked), with 20mm ƒ/1.7 & 17-45 ƒ/3.5–5.6 OIS lenses. Graded with… er… the 3-way colour corrector in Final Cut Pro. A couple of layers of it in places, though. So that’s like secondaries, right?

Fascinating article, as much for how the shoot was done as for the footage.

Alexa (or RED, for that matter) are way out of my league, but at least they give me something to dream about while I’m waiting for the Panasonic AF100 and hoping it’s cheaper than the reported $6000. There’s always a fancier camera…

How to Run a Meeting

“If you must meet, start the meeting by remembering the definition of a successful meeting is that when the meeting is done, it need never occur again.”
