Last night’s A.C.S. event at Lemac was quite interesting. I got to play with the new Steadicam Archer 2. It’s the best mid weight rig I’ve used. The G-40 arm and the new gimbal are beautifully smooth and precise.
Corporate work is a different experience to drama, but interesting none the less. Steadicam unrehearsed through a store following customers is a novelty.
We finally finished principal shooting this weekend. There are still a few pickups to do, but it’s pretty much done.
Post is in the hands of the DP Chris Tomkins and the Director Marisa Brown of Ready To Roll, and I’m really looking forward to seeing the final results.
Part II of the arcane art of the DIT is over on the HD-Cinema blog.
Here’s an interesting article on how and why Public Enemy was shot as it was.
Well it’s finally over. Sadly I cannot post any screenshots. I was given permission to post them, but not allowed access to the footage to gather them from. Go figure…
Version 1 is now out. Open source, Win32, Mac, Linux, plays almost video format natively.
Principal comes to an end this week. Once all the footage is handed over I might get a chance to post some screen shots next week.
