Focus assist - it has peaking and a punch in zoom doesn't it?

Sooooo... Anybody watch the VMA's last night? ...next question.. Does anybody find it "unfair" that somebody like "2 Chainz" can get on a microphone, say things like "she got a big booty, so i call her big booty." - and you have to work in a factory, warehouse, cubicle, etc... Just to make in a year what he probably made in 2 hours last night?... I think they took the "Talent is not enough" approach a little too far. Because apparently, it isn't "shhhhhhit!!!" and should be changed to... "f--k talent." lol. Well thankfully, not everything sucks: Per Blackmagic: "We have also been working on a Passive Micro Four Thirds model of the camera. People have been asking for this as there are a lot of nice high end manually operated MFT lenses on the market, and the MFT mount can also be easily adapted to PL and other lens mounts using third party adapters. The new Blackmagic Cinema Camera MFT is expected to ship in December, and will be the same price as the original model. It’s identical in features as they are both the same camera, just with different lens mounts. The price will also be the same at $2,995. We will be working with our dealers to help people change their orders if they want." http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/blackmagiccinemacamera/ This changes things for me:)

Hmm. If I'd ordered the EF one I'd be pretty annoyed right now unless there were a cross-grade path or preorder alteration programme...

The review is invaluable for all who already bought the BMCC and for those who consider it for the future. You shouldn't underestimate the problems though. Somebody wrote (or did PB say it in the video?) the camera was [i]user friendly[/i]. Okay ...

[/quote] Now are the early buyers left out in the rain or can they swap ('[color=#333333][font='Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Geneva, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=3][b]Now[/b] the Blackmagic Cinema Camera comes in two models')[/size][/font][/color]? My credo: Never buy the prototype! [i]Dungeness[/i] may be beautifully shot, but honestly, these are [i]stills[/i], animated in a Ken Burns fashion by the Kessler (but very carefully). I do like PB, I don't want to sound like a 'hater', but am I the only one who would skip calendar shots in a vimeo playlist? Let alone endure them in a [i]cinema[/i]? Because this is what the camera is allegedly designed for. I have the imagination to tell how a real film [i]might[/i] look with the BMCC.

For me its about mood and themes, I like using music as a canvas, or an inception of an idea that is to spawn from the music. Letting music play and piecing a loose storyboard in my head depending on the mood of a track on my mp3, trying to connect the theme and plot into an understandable narrative or "path." My teacher always mentioned that it doesn't always have to start from a beginning, it can spawn from the ending, the middle, even as simple as a conversation at a dinning table. The point was to start a spark somewhere and then to try and fuel that spark into a flame to structure your story.

IMAGINATION of your SOUL? the easy of the mind that moves in the film..your soul...your own, that floats you in a river of now, then and past...is a miracle.. you can ease it in any point of view and sight, and in first every way is right and simple.. but then,something happens.. music.. for my project i tried differend ways and music styles... one was is classic. one is with monolithic and frugal instrumentation with only 3 base notes on a reanimated old moog..this then brings me to scriptpainting where i bring my scene to a picture - and it s crasy and a slow process- sometimes i write the whole background story of one character..in the sadness of no happy ending of the film- that thern brings the shine-and then i knew more about the stage and how i will design every detail-setz the light-and so on.. Technical , i am happy that the 2 gh-2 i use are in this step, and later "there" just there and fit in a cinematic neutrality in. But i do not mention about because if you go line to much to perfect it to 100%, you kill it, how to explain.. when you play a line on your guitar and it falls with choirevoices in a upcoming dramatic sense of it, a bit but just a bit "false" a bit drive can make it. it is like this. And it is also a litte timless picture compositing, that you set it right, for your suppose of the scene and story and that you make the audience, think you are the people, in differnd, and you get them in a conjunctive moode,.. How is it, when you are lost 100000000000000000000000 millon miles away in space, is it same, if you are lost, because your father dies, is it same because you are now one glimpse of last lightshine away of calm peace, for a end of my sf-film-project i had the idea, taht the hero knwos that hw will die, wath would you do, when 20.000 dark transformed humankloned zombas run on your hill, and only 3 are left, and you have only 5 buiilts, my maincharacter sits down ( in demolated house) and begins to play sebastin bach .." oh komme grooser Herr" you see all in slomo, when the zombies brake in, and the hero smiles, he strkes the stanway piano.. weh do hear nothing, only the singel childish played notes, and he knows, no its right, he has found his fredom.. clic..the 100 megatonn reactor..... white.... end titel... music goes up in full orchestral holybness of hell... okay. and this is only one of 10001 ways i just will do this. "....alfred...alfred.... come in....dinner is ready..." out
