pretty cool, i was thinking about buying some lights they r pretty cheep so i was thinking maybe id get like 8 of them, but i havnt really needed them yet so when i do. but iv always kinda wondered exactly what u did

It all depends on the kind of lights that you get. The light kit that I used for this shot was over $1800.

hey Jon
what settings should the xha1 be at for best HD results?
should i shoot at 60fps? what should my colours be?
usually when I attempt this I get some noise on the blacks that people are wearing.
Jon Lawrence 7 months ago

I almost always shoot in 30p/f mode. I find that is does not key as well in 60i due to the interlacing. Are you using Keylight to key your footage? If so, black clothing should not be an issue. Make sure and adjust the Clip Black and White setting under Screen Matte. That usually cleans up any issue you have in your matte. Hope this helps.

awesome. thanks for your help. just to be clear, 30 is better than 24?
Jon Lawrence 7 months ago

I like 30 better because the camera does not focus as fast in 24. But if I need to convert to 24fps, I have not had any issues doing it in post.

Hey Jon,
Thanks for the video, great job. I was wondering if you used any of the custom presets, or was if the factory preset? Thanks.

I read that 24 fps is better than 30 fps because it lets more light in, thus giving a better key. I haven't confirmed this as fact.
