Art shoots a spot on the Canon 5D MkIIHands-on with a DSLR rigged to work like a cine camera.
Sunday, 19 July 2009: DP Art Adams joins Director Simon Sommerfeld to shoot a spec spot on the Canon 5D MkII DSLR. I stopped by and grabbed a few stills. more »RED+FCP: 3-channel Audio NG in STPYet another example of why you want to validate a new workflow on a small project!
Just a quick note: I took a short piece shot on RED and sent the FCP edit into Soundtrack Pro. I found to my dismay that I was unable to apply almost any processing to most of the clips: no noise reduction, no add-on processing (as shown in the image). A bit of investigation followed: more »

New Firmware for the HPX300 series camcordersThe email said, “PERFORMANCE-ENHANCING”, but it’s not what you think!
The email looked like any other masculine-insecurity spam: “NEW PERFORMANCE-ENHANCING UPDATES”. But it went on to say, “FOR PANASONIC AG-HPX300”, so I knew it was OK… there’s “Droidmaker” available as a free downloadMichael Rubin’s historical tale of NLEs and CGI is available as three free PDFs!
Michael Rubin, the author of several Mac and editing books, wrote a Lucasfilm/Pixar-centric history of the development of nonlinear editing and computer graphics for film production. The book, Droidmaker, gets rave reviews, as well it should: it’s a great snapshot of the early days of NLEs and CGI, as well as the politics and soap-operatic dramas surrounding them, written by a guy who Was There When It Happened. You can download it for free, and if you want to add a dead-trees copy to your library, you can do that, too. Highly recommended!
