So, with the nasty cold rainy weather, I decided to shoot a nature piece. The location is Ashland State Park in Massachusetts. This short subject was shot this afternoon in the fading light of the overcast sky. There was a fine mist and water seemed to penetrate my Gore Tex jacket. I shot with a Nikon 50mm f1.4. This is my fastest prime and quickly becoming my favorite lens. I set the camera to 720 30p HQ HDTV and shot the entire video with over cranking set to 60 frames per second. As always, I had the Letus35 Extreme film lens adapter on the front of my PMW-EX1 camcorder. I used a plastic bag to protect the camera and I had an umbrella in case it really started to rain. The camera did get a little wet, but keeping the lens free of misty drops was my priority. I brought a Vinten Vision 3 tripod with carbon fiber legs and my bag of lenses (which I did not use...) I shot for about an hour until it got too dark and too wet to continue. Music selection: Nine Inch Nails - Ghosts II track 13 I edited this in Final Cut Pro and color graded with Magic Bullet Looks. I over saturated the video. TRT: 3 minutes, 8 seconds Go to http://www.tomguilmette.com for more info. http://images.vimeo.com/50/07/11/50071158/50071158_200x150.jpg 200 150 868799
