Dave! This looks really great! How's the SG pro in comparison the the brevis?
Dave Christenson 3 years ago

hi Karen...you know i haven't had the chance to use the brevis...but i have used the SG, the redrock, and the letus and i really like the SGpro out of those 3...it looks like 16mm film to me, not so much the look of 35mm...i have never had an adapter that the focus was this sharp on...its crazy! sorry i couldn't help with the brevis question...ciao ciao

I have a brevis and am about to shoot a music vid with it. Just did some test footage this past weekend. I'm using it with an HV20 and a EX1. I like it but i'm not producing high end stuff yet, just getting up to speed on it all.

i would drape myself in rapha everyday if their stuff didn't cost as much as HD cameras.

What's the name of the song?
Dave Christenson 3 years ago

it's "new men" by Lucky Dragons...there are 2 versions of the song which are pretty similar but this version is the older of the 2.

Thanks!!!

Nice. But what do you do to make your windows so small and how come it's not in HD?
anonanony 3 years ago

The quality of this picture is really worth the purchase of that Canon. Also how did you do those dolly shots from low to high to capture the bicyclist as he went around the turns. I have to say the quality is amazing. Thanks for sharing,.
Dave Christenson 3 years ago

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked it! Those shots were from a 12' jib arm...so as the cyclist comes into the corner we were jibbing down and left, then the next shot we jibbed up and over to the left...

nice. i love rapha. wish i could afford their stuff. how did you get in contact with them?
Dave Christenson 3 years ago

i actually just called the owner up a couple of years ago and pitched him an idea that has still yet to happen...i want to ride my bicycle from Italy to Spain and hit every famous climb that is from the Giro d'Italia, the Tour de France, and and the Vuelta a España about 1600 miles within 12 days...he was way into it and sent me loads of clothes but unfortunately i was hit by a car while training...had surgery and was off the bike for 8 months...now i'm just getting back on form so i think we're planning to do it next summer...so i'll have to talk to them again and secure a few more sponsors...oh! and hopefully the whole doc will be shot on the RED camera...i'll send you some test footage we recently shot on the RED...

Can you send some footage to me too?

I heard that the kid you use as a set photographer is second only to me. You're pretty lucky to have him on your crew.

There's a lot of beautiful landscape shots but for some reason my favorite is the closeup at :34. Very cinematic.
Joseph Palmario 3 years ago

Hi Dave, I am really starting to like the Canon XL-H1 for its subtleties compared to the HVX200. Did you use any CC plug-ins or just the native CC?
moriza 3 years ago

Beautifully done!
sarah moore 3 years ago

ahh! I love it! How have you been? And remember how I was asking about all of your cool music in your car? Please send me a list of all this awesome music you listen to!

great video
Luke Pygman 3 years ago

The shot at :16 is incredible! This video is really nice.
Also, I was wondering the reasons why you like the SGpro more than the RedRock? I'm looking to buy a 35mm adaptor and I've been looking at the Letus and the RedRock... how do they compare in your opinion?
Rich Land 3 years ago

Only someone who rides a bike could capture those images. 'You can only possess what you experience' and your legs and eyes have definitely had some.
michelangelo russo 2 years ago

yes ... the bike .... the snow... mmmm ... fresh air.
beautiful video! it's all there in little more than 1 min.
bravo!

I remember that feeling and should be able to ride this weekend. Thanks again Dave!

All rapha videos are very inspiring, for me specially this one. You got there some sweet shots Dave, couldn't you upload it in hd?

I covet your camera/adapter/jib arm? I thought I saw a jib arm in there man... beautiful video.

Class production. Absolutely love riding. We just did London to Stonehenge. Epic. Thank you for a very inspiring film.

looks nice, what's that place you shot it ?
Henry Stensik 2 years ago

I think the place is Seattle and it's surroundings. If I had a chance to be in US I'd surely visit Seattle and some of these Tour of California routes. Something about these places...
