I went out shooting in Austin, TX with Jake and Benji to get some shots to make a short.

Then I saw this fella, asked if he minded being filmed, he didn't and when I got back I couldn't cut him with anything else! He was just too cool. So he gets his own little short!

Don't even know his name!

Shot on the EX3, Letus Ultimate with 1/2" Relay and 17-35mm Nikon f2.8 zoom and the Zeiss Nikon 100mm f2 Macro. Shot at 60fps overcrank with some shots slowed to 50% with Twixtor.

I run around that lake often, I've never seen that guy- I'm really going to laugh out loud if I see him, and I'll make sure to get his name. Great job- you really took advantage of the opportunity. :)

Hi Philip, quick question: I have moved from Sony Vegas on PC to Final Cut Pro (finding the change very difficult) -
Is there a reason why you are using Magic Bullet for Grading over Apple's Color?
Philip Bloom 7 months ago

yeah it's much easier!
torbaymedia 7 months ago

Cheers - thats a good answer! I had a feeling it might be the case.

I just had to subscribe to your videos here!

I love your special look and your colors!

Now, in this particular video I see something that I usually see in EX3 footage and that is a slight "videoish" motion. (sorry for not having a better word to describe it)

For landscapes and slowmotion it seems to do fantastic. It's just when I see people moving I always get this, yeah "videoish" feel.

Do you have any idea why that is?

I don't know if you've seen the movie 21 (with Kevin Spacey).. It was shot on a Panavision Genesis HD camera, and it showed the same type of motion as the EX3 here.

This is "one" of the reasons I haven't gone over to HD yet.

The only HD camera I've seen with proper filmlike motion must be the HVX200 and some Canon HD cameras..

Could it be the CMOS sensor?

Anyway
Your videos are still freaking awesome!
Peace!

Philip Bloom 7 months ago

can I ask one thing...are you talking about the movement in the fist 3 or 4 shots? That's because of Twixtor slow motion plugin to slow it down even more. Last three shots have much better motion in as it's 60fps...
Ray Pena 7 months ago

Hey Philip, love the piece and your site. I jog around town lake in Austin a few times a week and since I've seen this video, I see that guy all the time now. I take it he doesn't know he's famous? Are you working in Austin these days?

Really great. The color grading is brilliant - the green background really pops.
