This Camera Changes Everything!

If things go well, we have a perfect

camera

team that blows

everything

out of the water. Sam's dream cat, so we're knee deep in video shoots right now and have another one on the way. Jon Snow Wick. He is raining. The forecast says it should be a sunny afternoon look, it looks beautiful, it looks like we are in the north, we have a very small crew for

this

, I have to find a way to film

this

, fortunately there is new equipment in the studio, I am very excited. to try and solve all our problems for the last few years, we have gotten it into our heads that there is only one

camera

we should use on set and that is the red one, why the footage looks great, tons of frames per second, huge resolutions.

Big disadvantage: the red on its own is not cumbersome, but by the time you have to start combining it with other equipment, it becomes very cumbersome when we do soft shots, we need a full dolly setup, tracks and things like that or we need a large and powerful gimbal. which can support the weight of a real full size camera. The reason I was interested in bringing this is because it goes against all the advantages of Blackmagic's Blackmagic Pocket 4k. It is small. It is light. It has a touch screen. It's 4k. Record without formatting. Niko likes to take those images and separate all the colors and remix them and make them look really good.

We need images that can withstand that process, but it has some disadvantages. Battery life is very inconsistent so far. Hopefully we have enough batteries to last. us the day because we don't do it then we are screwed secondly it is small enough to put a small gimbal made for small cameras it is the crane 3 laboratory i am a big fan of gimbal design obviously the professionals are we get smooth images All the Gimbals react a little differently to camera rigs. I don't know, fingers crossed for this one. I am very confident that

everything

will work out if things go well.

We have a perfect camera team that blows everything completely out of the water before. There weren't many other options this size that could give us the footage we needed, and right now it has a really high chance of dethroning what I would have considered the perfect camera a week or two ago. I want to find the perfect camera no matter if I already found it or if you are about to discover a new perfect camera, the red one will handle more challenging lighting situations better than this camera, well the red one just has a better sensor, its hair is totally good.

The camera is on par with the scarlet we got when we got our first net. Remember that we shot with Tether in the scarlet. The battery life is a little short, but you can power it up in three seconds, so honestly, this is it. kind of like the camera I was dreaming about a decade ago and the red was kind of a stopgap solution. Chamber two of Sam's dream. An action. Can we do one last one? Yes, I know where I'm fixing all the problems right now. this practice helps a lot ghost action ghost where are you? this is our janky log dog all your acting keep it as low as possible when you get this far yeah cool your acting is moderate above average this is a great cinematic tool this is a great cinematic tool it's a video with a lot of action yes things going well we have a really perfect camera set up here this is how i tactically recharge the batteries i just leave them cool awesome we're ready again guys nico has to flip pick up that bow in his hands hit an arrow and shoot it without any editing or vfx nico , this is just a photo of you doing a trick, it's okay, there's no way around it, are you ready for victory?

Yes, action, take one, two, come on, the people are. I'm going to say oh, he didn't really do it. What would Jackie do? I did it. I'm really digging this combination of crane 3 and black magic pocket. Hold this for two seconds. I'm going to take off my jacket so I can put 100 energy into this. three two one action yes that was amazing today I used a camera that I have never shot with before and I use the gimbal that I have never used before, it actually turned out very very well the only complaint I have is that when shooting with a handheld camera this way, fortunately you can still feel the handheld DSLR camera get jittery.

I think I used six or seven batteries, but that being said, I've saved more time today than almost anything else. This is the crazy part. This is not sponsored. video this is not sponsored by blackmagic yet please monsters welcome to what we thought would be day two another production took the official route got their permits got their permits so technically they have information on us about where they got it for their shoot so we're trying to figure out if there's a solution let's figure this out maybe we can fight them maybe a more peaceful option is the way to go here so we'll try to find this new place if we don't.

If we don't find this place, then we're kind of screwed. On the day we will see how it goes. Hopefully these pine trees look the same. It's about half an hour to that other bridge. Uh, wow, this is apocalyptic, this is simple. apocalyptic right now, those are some good obstacles, it looks like a lawn, a brown lawn, yeah, I don't see this working, if we liked an apocalypse short film here and you just bring some gas masks, wastelands, it will be equal to the men. sign monster question mark exclamation mark the movie's tagline is what's really under the question mark exclamation mark pack it up but let's pack it up call it a day and come back and finish this so unfortunately we got kicked out of our location to the second day the stress is a little high so we'll take a moment, have a quick jam session and thank our loyal customers so it's not a canadian spy, robert said, eddie adolph, irinio Guerrero jr, le flash , hendrick, sean patrick. william perry matthew taylor dunbar astro gg aloy ababakar alan almanza the lion's head youtube channel phillip oxford master one as one gary dolph nicholas jumps mitch blensky brian antosik glitch cube james bailey didn't forget about you friend raymond dadad and caleb gallant thanks sponsors hey What's happening?

So I'm editing the footage now that we filmed the first day. This is our first time using the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k vmpcc 4k cinema camera. I mean, Sam has been excited about this now that I see the footage. It's a breath of fresh air so we were filming on something called raw black magic or just b raw or bra what's up brah a raw codec but it's a compressed raw codec you got all your rock controls now I have controls over the shots so here I am me running right here The shot is very bright now I can fix most of that with the rock controls and I have my raw controls for my black magic raw file and I can lower my iso a little bit to get that kind of dial where I want it and let's say my white balance was off.

You could just change the white balance after the fact. Now the black magic camera doesn't have as much dynamic range as the red one. I have a small fix for where things tend to desaturate as they get brighter. I just take out the lights. all the way I can resaturate them and even go further here but that obviously looks bad. I'm taking that bright sunlight and not making it so extreme and there we go, that's not so bad. I love being able to change my iso after the In fact, I love being able to change my white balance after the fact that magic has added that to black magic, something so essential.

I'm very glad they did it. The scarlet was like 20,000 and this is a thousand dollars. overcoming a little bump in the road we are back it looks like we have it all to ourselves you may have caught up with me last time when I was working on my russian landsat and to create probably what I would call one of the best looks vintage anamorphics that you can get on a budget today are finally complete let me give you a tour. I'm a big fan of anamorphic lenses. I didn't want to spend twenty thousand dollars, so the closest thing was these Russian lenses because they're sharp, they're a little rough on the edges to give it that vintage aesthetic.

You will see it a lot in this video. They are all cousins. They're not as crisp and clear, but it works for a piece like this. because it's medieval and you know vintage works, it just makes you wonder why everything looks a little weird and distorted in the background but it doesn't matter because it's still sharp in the foreground. I'm wondering, is this a good lens or is this a bad lens? Then, Tony will fall without a pad on the ground. They tend to call them a bump, it's a point of pride among them and that when it comes time to fall, do it for real, it'll hit him in the ankles, he'll flip over completely and land on his back, so now it's our turn to nail him in the first, maybe second time I've flipped it, man, it's going to be great.

I was a little nervous about people's health. You want to rehearse it on the platform first to make sure you can handle the fall. We'll call for having to have a crazy fight today and then go and wreck somewhere else for someone else. Tomorrow you have to be in good shape all the time that is very true that's why you always have to have your head up this is what my senior specialist told me yes even if you are doing a small side fall where your elbow touches the ground just cut it's like when you do it 10,000 times for like 20 years, that adds up and he's like walking like that, you know, you'll always be sure half the job of a specialist who wears pads, the thing is I reached one percent and I'm not going to do this with that one percent battery now I don't want to do a trick where someone hits the ground with the risk of the camera going off recharging that's how I recharge in real life we ​​have the philosophy that if a man hurts the shot, that's the shot you gotta use, yeah, okay, so all the stun guys have gone down without pads, so I gotta do at least one, not a big fall, three, two, one action, I'm not a, I can follow all friends. fact, jon snow has a band aid, i'm 90, the last one, the last one, if you can, if you can, give me one more pint of acting, one action, oh don't hit me with the ball, so we've been filming all day , sam.

You have 50 seconds left on your card, we have a shot to take, which is the end of the video overlooking this beautiful valley. 50 seconds, the first shot must be perfect. Oh, maybe we can finish this entire piece on one card, that's what. Like that's what each camera captures. Something happened I think I made an accident Oh, how much time do you have left? I mean, I accidentally hit the roll and wasted it at all oh god, damn, dumb story anyway, so yeah, we need, we need memory now, yeah. there is an emergency SD card here for situations like this how much memory is on this card eight gigabytes is enough lx series probably the cheapest and shitty car brain is this the magic staff it really is a magic staff I feel like it's like a scepter just like my big ruby ​​with magical powers in this you did it it worked it worked against all odds it worked much better than it had any right to work there is a shot here now it starts as a dolly and turns into an orbital shot, right? here the dolly comes in and then a boom comes out which becomes an orbital shot if you wanted to take that shot with a heavier camera you traditionally put the dolly track in and you eat the dolly shot and your orbital shot would be like a steady camera shot that you wouldn't really do be able to get both you're getting a dolly move getting a crane move you're getting a steadicam move you're getting a tripod move a tripod move less gear lighter gear I mean , I would totally shoot an entire movie like this you get the flexibility you can be super creative you basically have the entire language of film at your fingertips you can commit to any kind of shot you imagine instantly this sounds like 80 percent of the way even though this magical flash work was great I'm not giving up on my perfect camera just yet, we'll have to see what the real perfect camera is.
