First, DV is a standard-definition format, do not need such a powerful editing suite, and tap its potential. You do not need to 8MB of RAM, Final Cut Pro X and Apple's latest processor rendering and color change and DV editing timeline.
SD (Standard Definition) is a format that is widely acknowledged that in the network, and most YouTube video running in the low-resolution mode. Not everyone can transmit HD 720p or 1080p for this problem, so SD is still very relevant. Even those we offer a 15MB connection, we do not necessarily need to support 720p video enjoyment. So, if you've got a old school classic Panasonic DVX100, Sony PD150, it is still cool! Bonus on all DV cameras are much cheaper than their professional counterparts. There is a bargain, especially if you're learning how to make a movie, and hope that the 3 CCD camera (semi-professional standard).
Well, the shortcomings of DV is that it does not have as much color depth, resolution, or the quality of the HD workflow, but if you're doing a documentary, behind-the-scenes video or TV / Network report, it is a solids solution. Even if it is a low-budget short film production, it still has its place. The DV In my opinion, the biggest drawback is, you have to tape the facts. Within minutes, you can download all the clips. However, the positive side is that it can help your comments footage and learn more about your shooting and shooting structure. Spielberg still prefer Steenbeck? It has a good reason. With HD, we are actually getting lazy, because it is easier to shoot more material, and then dumped in the timeline. DV, you will be a little conservative, because you know you will see all those damn tape sequence capture.
DV is still a valuable format, in my opinion, although it does not provide us with HD charm, it does provide a good solution for a lot of us do not need a Hollywood action movie to start shooting.

Your travel look like?
Sleep on a flea-ridden dirty ground, against E. coli and agriculture radish is not typical of hope summer, but four students pack and camera to South America to do this. Chris Temple and Zach Ingrasci, two students from Claremont McKenna College in Los Angeles, recruiting the help of their filmmaker friends, Western alumnus Sean Leonard and Western students Ryan Christofferson, record the their journey. The group, led by a Guatemala City to experience what is like to live in a dollar a day, 1.1 billion people face every day a reality. What started as a simple summer vacation plans, and now has become a life-long mission, so that the poor social dialogue. The Group is a national tour to promote their film "life" and Pickford Film Center stop on Monday. Western sit in front of the producer, asked their travel, movies, and their lives, living in poverty.
Your travel look like?
Zach - Ingrasci: We spent 56 days in Guatemala live on less than a dollar a day. We know that
We will never be able to truly copy poverty, but we want to simulate some of the key aspects. For example, most of the extreme poor do not have one U.S. dollar each day of life. Some days, they get paid, and some they do not work because they are informal. Us our money random increments from 0-9 every day attracted from a hat, so a few weeks, we have a very rough time.
Chris Temple: We've been looking for this service is known as micro-credit, loans and savings accounts of people living in extreme poverty, but it makes it easier for them to manage their own money to improve their lives.
With small loans, you can start a business. For example, Rosa, one of our neighbors, the sixth grade when forced to drop out of school because her father is really sick, she had to work to support their families. About two years ago, she was able to get a small loan, and start knitting enterprises. Her money from her weaving business, she sends himself through school and her dream is to become a nurse's assistant, which is awesome. Such a small thing can have a huge impact on a person's life.
Chris Temple: The entire project is just over 4000 U.S. dollars. From nine different sources of funding is denied, we finally got a grant. This is a battle to get it done, but we believe it, and think this is worth doing.
When your low budget, you nervous?
Chris Temple: This is my fault. I put two zero two from the hat, so the four of us, we have 12 cents per person living in the four days. I remember one morning when I wake up in the dirt floor by flea bites at night, I have one in my stomach parasite called Giardia. I'm really sick, and we do not even know if we have enough money for food that day. This is a way of life, beyond the [United States] we have the experience, it makes us aware that we really want our lives to do something to face it.
How did you meet?
The Zach - Ingrasci: Chris and I went to school together down Claremont McKenna College in Los Angeles. We focus on the development of economics, we have been running into this massive statistics: 1.1 billion live in less than one U.S. dollar a day.
I grew up on Bainbridge Island and Chris grew up in Connecticut. We really do not know what the actual meaning of the statistics, it is actually lived at this level. That is why we hope to spend a summer get just a glimpse of what reality is, and to share it with our counterparts via video blog, which is why I win over Sean and Ryan together into the future with me, because I grew up with them on Bainbridge. I let them down, and become a part of this experience.
Shooting process like?
Sean Leonard: We shot over 200 hours of material. We shot everything. We're back, trying to create a story, to be able to truly bridge this divide Thinking poverty. Before this trip, nothing came to mind when I think of poverty. Then just hope that through the film, one can not just think of poverty, or $ 110 million, but the actual people living in very difficult circumstances.
Zach - Ingrasci: As a producer, we go there and not really know what we expect.
The experience is real change. This story is really our story. Our story bridge people began to think about these issues. This is the true story of Anthony, Rosa and Chino protagonist of the film, who are our counterparts there in fact living in the poverty level, their entire life.
The two filmmakers go to the West. University life is how to shape your experience?
Sean Leonard: Department of English in the West is inconceivable, because it is all about storytelling. I often go to my professor's office hours, and get advice. In the documentary, you have to tell a story. Do not you think that English is automatically applied to film production, but if you put your degree, and apply it to the things you love, you can have a lot of final results. This thing is so cool about our team. We have a background in English, economics, international relations and education. All our people are able to put our own skillsets to this project to make it unique.
You start the YouTube video in your travel, there are now more than 600,000 times. Why did you decide to upload your lens in real time?
Ryan Christopher, we show online video blog, and to shoot and edit. Them every two weeks, and we are there. The idea was to get people to follow our experience, showed a decline, rather than the back, there is a solid piece.
Chris Temple: we see as a live, interactive tour of falling into poverty, where people do not know what's going to occur next week's excitement can be drawn.
You did not think your trip will this do?
Sean Leonard: "Never." We think we will be back, and ten to fifteen minutes a small film. We're back, and realize that there is a long way to tell. We have to work with some great people.
Chris Temple: The one thing we want to tell the students, [thinking] such a small start. We think this is a summer vacation. We do not think it will be something, will consume our lives over the next three years. 600,000 on YouTube that point of view, this is a new way of audience reach. People are excited. Teachers use video in their classrooms. We recognize that help to bridge the gap of understanding, we can make poverty in the conversation. Otherwise, it has not been resolved. Did not talk about the election, I do not think this is the way it should be. We can really try to bring it back in the forefront of the conversation, hoping to inspire people to take action.
What is the biggest lesson you've learned in this experience?
Chris Temple: one of the biggest takeaway for me has always been something so small, such as a bed to sleep in, get a small loan or even just enough food to think when you go to school there are significant the impact of a person's life who lives in a dollar a day. For us, have real authority.
What is the editing process is it?
Sean Leonard: all movies are mostly edited Bellingham.
Chris Temple: We do this in our sophomore summer. Zach and I am still in the Claremont McKenna College. We will discuss through Skype and editor with back and forth. What technology has allowed us to do is incredible. We create a movie, is 3,000 miles away, another just shot stuff back and forth to each other by e-mail.
Why did you decide to take the road on the movie?
Zach - Peña Blanca Ingrescia: our friends in changing our lives and continue to do so every day.
People living in the case in order to solve a complex global problem of poverty, we not only need to know it, know it, but in a sustainable manner, respect for human dignity, but also do so. This is why the four of us on tour. Bellingham is our sixteenth stopped. We head down to Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and eventually fell back to Guatemala. I hope we can inspire people to do something.
Hannah Gregg: If there are no big production team behind, we have to think about another way to make his movie, and let people see it. This is the original idea behind the sightseeing bus. If we can put it in schools throughout the country, who can prove, especially young people, are inspired by it, maybe we can create a following seductive network.
The group's next, what happens?
Hannah Greg: movie no matter what happens, we want to keep the content, education, attractive and inspiring, in fact, is something you want to do, rather than bombarding your guilt. We intend to let the film have their own lives and the distribution of the best, we can get it. We have to go a little bit open. This is exciting.
How did you different?
Chris Temple: One day, we went home, our experience is the most difficult part. We go, we go home, heart and body is what life in poverty levels. We know our friends or life. Came back, we have two choices: refused and tried to pretend that this is not the opportunity or respect, we've got everything, we have here, I think, for us, this is we have been trying to do. This is really a battle every day. We take a look at the technology and education we have, we have to give to the west or McKenna. At our fingertips, we have the incredible opportunity. I want people to take away, you can really make a difference in the lives of others, and we hope you will.

Tip has been very good video coverage
In this week's roll rebel, Stephen talks of the importance of "shooting, editing, and some suggestions on how to ensure that, when you're shooting video, you capture enough picture of the scene to the editor, full coverage work and a lot of shooting. Appropriate coverage will certainly improve the high-end video products, you can save a lot of time and headaches to go back and re-shoot something, usually not an option, or the editor and try to fix it, an attempt to rescue the poor picture.
The editors of the shooting, including understanding of the production plan photographers may need to recognize that in post-production, what kind of scene elements able to get the right shot. IE - which is not to go out to shoot and hope for the best. If you have done the appropriate pre-production on the script and the story, you should have a good idea how it edit together.
In a way, you can also think that it is a safety net "for the" shooting. It will not only please your editor, but it also has the advantage of the production staff. Shooting such an advantage, you can more effectively take the order of scenes. The staff of Hollywood animation picture this scene may begin and end in New York, if the middle in Los Angeles, crews will often shoot all the LA scene at the same time.
Camera coverage skills
Post-production editor will often want as much as possible of the lens, because he / she can get. So, shooting editing multiple shooting means shooting each scene from different angles and distances, to obtain the appropriate coverage. The screen, you have more choices, and your editor. You will be surprised to find that, in a few seconds of seemingly useless material, can be used to fill the holes in the program.
Main shoot
Under normal circumstances, you will be called master shot (establishing shot), or wide-angle long shot from the beginning to the end, including a scene in the beginning. This does not mean you need to have your amateur actors the script word for word recite the whole, be able to do this amazing takeoff. Just make sure you get a decent size blocks covering each lens can be used in combination of other lens to finish editing the script.
OTS shooting
You will see the dialogue scenes in the movie one of the most common lens OTS, or over the shoulder. If the OTS lens is essential editing, not just shooting each of them a set of lines. Even in off the camera just let the film roll. This is the best line together so a huge factor in the shooting editing, because it provides an editor to cut away from shooting off machine listener reaction, let him have the opportunity to suture the different needs of speakers editing possible. To tell the truth, you will not get Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise for you, so you actors may need all the help they can get.
You already have a master shot, two complete OTS shooting, actor, editor of the shooting did not stop there. Ask yourself what is important scene. Reference to an actor, you can see the ball when things? Remember eyeliner matching and matching cuts. Take advantage of all the time you set. Of course, you may be over-shooting, but it is always better to be safe than sorry.
More shooting skills:
This is the best tape for a few seconds before and after the action. In this way, you can adjust your edit bay and out-points.
You will want the proportion of your time. For example, if you shoot a 50-minute tape to produce a five-minute video, your shooting ratio is 50:5 or 10:1. This means that you edit the videotape shot 10 minutes of raw footage per minute. In order to improve efficiency, and strive to achieve the shooting ratio close to 2:1, or even 3:1.
Even a very small proportion of the shooting will give you a lot of tape editing. Make sure your organization. You should keep a copy of the log, you shoot. This requires you to keep a written record, in which the lens is the best lens on which tape. In this way, when you edit, you will be able to more quickly find the shooting. This can be very simple, the order in which they and the approximate length, or precision finalize the recorded tape, pay attention to the time code number.
If you slate your lens records more effectively. The slate is the the small clapboard filmmakers use them to shoot down, shouting "10". It is used to quickly identify the beginning of a lens. Allow a shift slate, such as dry erase board can be used to mark each scene you're shooting. You can also try using a digital clapboard slate iPad applications like movie, we're here.

Young people bring new meaning to the independent film
Filmmaking is not a coward, this is something I learned while hanging out with one of the plains of Saro movie production crew. This requires hard work, literary talent, smart thinking, quick reactions (occasionally), a sense of humor (often) and a lot of imagination and power. It sounds a challenge? Maybe. But independent movie theater company's free-spirited and alert 14-year-old children from East Aurora, it is only the work of passion.
Plain, Salo made just one example, is becoming more and more people "underground" teenage fiction filmmakers. Now, the film has become more and more young people, in particular, can be achieved, the rise of easy-to-use technology, there are more and more young people, found that independent media artists and publishing their work. Not only is their work very well, it has a completely unique flavor. In fact, it evolved into a subculture, localization, local art, "regular kids" blooming skills energized imagination and honesty and guts.
High school students in East Aurora,may be able to be fixed Saro mischief and magic plains chieftain because he technically its founder. Saro actually the main network of high school in Western New York Film Group is only one part, it is known as the Orion movies and plains Salo, Lucian15 pictures, SueProductions101/FourStarFilms and Llama'sGate (yes, this is a fight the media giant Lionsgate). As the the astrology the name might suggest, are integrated into a larger picture: individuals become friends and collaborators, and with Constellation, expanded to the entire universe of film artists.
In the depths of the forest, plains Saro shooting / production reasons, I can hang out for an afternoon, some of the gang members. Circle Ted Keenan Rashid Jacob emperor (SueProductions101), Ruan days McAtee (Lucian15 picture), Maria Seeber said Matilda Musial and all 14-year-old Mary Burt, high school students in East Aurora .
The story began ... in this land and secondary schools, the first operation of plain Salo started with three friends just Ted, Keenan and Jacob silly short films. (The name plain blackchin came from Ted's early short stories, one about a mysterious realm.) Due to the expansion of the Group, everyone started doing independent projects, people began to consider the role of the agent, and so serious the nature and depth of the film grew up to become a Film Artists Association, and in my circle of friends.
Maria, the film's love nurtured an old crank projector in her house, she said, and her mother from the 1960s still has an old-fashioned film camera. Maria calls what happened today "movie revival!"
"In the 1960s, this is a new cool things ordinary people - not just the big-name manufacturers - began making their own movie," Maria said. "We are trying to bring back."
Everyone in the plain Salo group training / experience of a traditional theater, a young actor from the second phase of the annual school musicals and Aurora players in the summer.
Matilda said her family has been involved in local theater.
"The first time I appeared on stage on players in the five months of the aurora, and I've been doing ever since," she said. With her friends in the movie is a natural transition, she added.
While all the people said, they have been involved in a variety of film roles, Ted is the main editor, director, photographer, actor and screenwriter are involved.
"I have an idea, completely random, just a smear, says:" Jacob. "Well, we might talk about it, or watch other movies or whatever it formed."
The Group usually plot and turns the general idea, and from there, they do not have to do too much actual script (Christopher Guest-style one). In fact, they often make up for their shot line adjustment of the dialogue in order to adapt to each situation, the natural progress as works of art movies.
Their movie genre? It is often sci-fi/thriller, and throw in some comedy (including Monty Python: the impact of the "doctors", "Star Wars" and other cult / independent film), but they have tried in different time periods and characterization of style. Keenan film about 1920s mob. A bunch of Ted movies, including "era trilogy" ("time converter," Time Hunter "," the time Revelation "), time travel in the future and some of these variations. Jacob work inspired one called "blue guy, green experts" loose "Batman" movie. They continue to generate new ideas. In our discussion, Ted's face lit up, he said the middle of someone else's, "Hey, maybe we should do a silent film!"
Then, a bit later, Ted is running in the same package. Around several silver and black spray paint plastic pistol, will be used as props in their next film. Ted's belt loop, Maria a pair of handcuffs, and a couple on the floor on a light saber and a cardboard ax. Basically, this is a "weapons" that sort of thing. However, this is just an eccentric qualities, this particular art movement has become a trademark: the project is rooted in doing its own ethics and plain fun.
Another thing is the sound effects for each film. For example, Ted said, "a head of lettuce ... to wrap it in a towel ... with a stick ... This is amazing." This will create the the cartoon "shwoom" sound in air other people's faces may be used as a character fist learned a trade. Their recorded sound, and then falling into pieces sound bites, avoid the use of pre-recorded sound thin, buy influence or actual stamping face.
They do not need to use complex equipment. Ted's camera is a Canon T21 rebels, an additional microphone. He said it cost about 600 yuan, "but a lot of savings, which is a result of addition, five years ago, the camera is $ 5,000."
, "Maria said:" We are in the middle of the digital revolution, we must take advantage of.
Although some of Ted's equipment with specific interests starting to consider the issue, he believes that any standard, cheap camera will do what you need to do.
"If you want to make a movie today, all the tools are there for you ... the only way to stop any person [is not trying to find them," he said.
The picture you want to edit, Ted use called VegasMovieStudio, he purchased and downloaded because he had a strong interest in film production, but, Keenan and Jacob are using iMovie. Everyone agreed that, iMovie is the best place to start, because it is with the Mac or can be easily downloaded. As for the movie skills of the Group, they are both on the Internet self-taught, or they are doing research. The largest AIDS resources, such as film riot and Indy Mogul movies (including YouTube channel DIY tutorial).
"Remember, what you can Google," Keenan said.
Although the tools and skills are important, the most important component is the innovation. Recently Plain Saro project, "freedom", is an ambitious effort. Ted's idea was to make a movie, where anyone who wants to catch in the movie, they have to create their own independent role. Participants began to fill out the questionnaire, their role, and Ted work, they are all included in the main figure. The questionnaire included a theme, such as the character's name, physical description, personality, skills and motivation.
The last character from Gypsy therapist (inspired by Bollywood dance culture) to a confusion of Romania's femme fatale assassin bankers, their trump card to another I only trigger the sound of his own name.
"In fact, I'm really proud of my character," Mary said. "I created her work really hard. Moreover, she has a little bit of me in her mixed also."
The 33-minute film, recently released on DVD on YouTube. The "free" items, reflecting the principle of a the plains Saro movie and DIY cardboard sword "film movement.
, "Mary said:" The world could use some more imagination.
So, what is the next step? None of them is OK. Ted Jacobs said, they will be interested in the pursuit of a movie, even as a profession in the university. But even those are not necessarily for professional film industry, our goal is to keep have a good time with the film production, and remain in their creative life.
Their message is, you do not need to have to have been professionally trained or ridiculously rich, or even a good movie for adults.
Keenan and Jacob said, what you need the basic iMovie, a camera, a few props and imagination.
Some simple tools and create passion, you can make a mark. Sometimes, the light saber plastic film, in the woods on autumn weekends with friends turn out to be the best.
"If you have an idea, just do it," Ted said. "The most important thing is to have fun."
