  1. Speaking of AI, you lose lots of it with any of them from a double attitude: either immersed on multiple AI suggestions flooded through your browsing or simply ignoring it. That's where a digest effort from a balanced research can help. To select the content. At the same time when you orient some external perspective on your picking up, you're always excluding the viability of digression. That's where the contemporary interactive media counterpart flows. Who here has predilection for Deleuze? : ) I honestly don't understand how people expect to develop themselves going on unilateral frame of mind. Really. These times are also exciting for the number of possibilities they offer us to evolve, not exactly for the most recent gimmick. Hard to neglect such powerful tool as YT is, obviously, as well.
  2. Well said : ) That happened a few years ago when we had finished to shoot that feature film shot on 5DII.
  3. I've always appreciated your digest research BTW for obvious reasons. YT is unbearable these days. Suggestions by AI don't fulfill the purpose at all. Hence I believe we can't wear all the same shirt for sure : -)
  4. Probably they see the video embedded feature with some different use? I think Andrew nailed it with the digest concept. As written up there, it doesn't seem a bad idea at all after all since I guess it is consensual the overload exists from the origin on YT as our contemporary video hosting mainstream or am I wrong on it? ; ) What seems pretty clear to me it is that despite the repeatedly calls from our webmaster here, the footage subforum on EOSHD keeps going overrated as it has been well observed in this thread. And I continue seeing a few people who present themselves as professionals but I can't find a single work or gig they had worked for years I am reading this website in any way other than as their customary blah blah they'll buy the wishful list of next camera to come...
  5. Two feature films in UK and US. It shall depend on a series of factors yet. I love DSLR form factor, so I usually tend to push there. Being Blackmagic cameras my favorite ones today. My business partner has shot a horror feature on Blackmagic Production Camera 4K, I humbly push him to adopt. We had shot a feature film on 5DII before. RED usually arrives because of investments already done in the past to match a very personal path of our own to also comprehend industry connections. I've just opened a thread in the footage subforum on a feature documentary already completed and to currently be released (90% shot on Epic MX/Dragon). The other two features to be made between 2020 and 2021 are narrative stuff.
  6. With the current situation I'm afraid new purchases are a bit of compromised investments to make these days. To bet on already pre-existent gear I believe is the most balanced approach for a successful business along 2020 at least. I've just canceled all our plans for now. Even the projects, two feature films to be shot yet this year have their shooting schedule suspended until further notice. There are some much other work to advance of course. Just not camera related.
  7. Unfortunately, YT is a mess flooded by the monetization mania and I concur, the participation on footage subforum here is underestimated, anyway. No new cameras in the horizon to launch nowadays follows, the talking heads live sessions on YT grow up as new hype... as well, brands seem to choose youtubers to promote their marketing as a sort of new internet shills. Even the ads we had to avoid from generalist TV channels are now transferred ad nauseam to YT each couple of minutes, well, a weekly digest looks like a great idea for a new website indeed, Andrew ; ) With the current quarantine, I'm afraid we'll have exactly what Kye has mentioned on his new thread, and a decrease on content quality until the crisis will last, so be ready yet for some months to come...
  8. Hadn't watched yet, an uncle of mine had died on the eve of your post, so only today. Left my comment on vimeo : ) Very impressed, buddy! : ) I guess that thing bigger than life has just won one more child... first short film? WOW : -)
  9. Andrew Benz credits ; ) That drone shot done by his hands and directors' inspiration is incredible, my fav drone shot ever! : ) Need to enjoy it there in the middle of the doc stream... Thanks for your kind words (E : -)
  10. I do concur in fact : ) Here's the recent international launch presentation: Samples: Last but not least, a cinematic attempt of a COVID-19 video ad in the middle of a review: To conclude, here are two interesting comparatives from one of the usual most popular smartphone camera YT reviewers:
  11. I fully understand you Márcio @Márcio Kabke Pinheiro, seems we have no alternative to look in any direction indeed. Well, you're welcome over here for sure! : ) We've fallen in love with your country, no matter the current nonsense panorama and how incredible the situation the country of Bossanova is living today... : X Remember Jorge Amado... Roque Santeiro? Universal language. Take a look on this other feature documentary financed by ARTE: It is ironic this great name of the Portuguese language and Brazilian culture died exactly last year, isn't it? ; ) In the same way, the feature doc A Machine To Live In praises Oscar Niemeyer's work but not only... One of the main themes of A Machine To Live In is Brazil’s dream of building a first world utopia and ended up dropping a nightmare into the Brazilian cerrado... The Citizens then took these themes of utopia building back to their satellite cities. These are their reactions so to speak to living in the Dream of the Others. shot from A Machine To Live In (2020) by the cinematographer Andrew Benz over Brasilia Rodoviária / central bus station

  13. Quoted from here: http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?107770-Whatever-happened-to-Ketch-Rossi-s-The-Red-Dress-short-I-wanted-to-watch-it!&p=1278778&viewfull=1#post1278778 And here's more about the most recent developments of the story: The plot's peak: All this is a bit personally funny and curious for me, once I am in a middle of an attempt to gather RED support for this piece of work, a feature doc mainly shot on RED:
  14. No idea, never seen it nor had even a wish for, to be sincere. But there are several ones on same topic. Why should his be an offense? Because of the topic? I remember when Portuguese people didn't like to know Portuguese origin offenders (should the good old Azores, their people and venerable culture be blamed as well?) had been accused in the U.S. of such ignoble gang-rape crime, hence the infamous stain, a true story based on this Jodie Foster's film in the role of a Portuguese American victim (so, same origin) too: The true accused and the true accusers (Portuguese article) -- translated to English here IIRC Ketch had told to the world he had also been victim of some brutal story of sexual abuse from his own experience of life.
  15. Seems we all have different opinions and experiences about him. Let alone reduser... : ) Maybe he wouldn't be so bothered with the fact he's the focus of a thread which topic is coronavirus and this industry or maybe not. Who knows? I usually remind his trouble to survive his health issues instead. As well I can't celebrate a much distant opinion from my own on eccentric ideas I see his persona to carry on either. The only one I find to me. I just don't want to be somewhat involved as Pontius Pilate, curiously in this date, today. Exactly because of a very personal position for the subject matter, a really friendly personality he also is and our private real world we all live out here. I have no idea where a few, some or even all of you were when happens to read EOSHD or especially you Andrew to have been criticized on dvxuser and reduser in the past but I know and proudly recall identical behaviour of mine there from day one. In the same way I wouldn't endorse or take this James Franco's work as his ultimate contribution to the humankind : ) No matter how timely such portrait may end to actually be or bio crosses silly fame-seeking. E : -)
  16. He's a nice guy. I personally dislike to see him in any circus, including those he's used to vastly fall in love and dream about. He's merely a dreamer. Harmless type.
  17. Quoted from here which sums up pretty well the whole thing: http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?315091-I-don-t-even-know-where-to-begin-with-this-Overreaction-or-delusion&p=1986372984&viewfull=1#post1986372984
  18. @Snowfun @BTM_Pix what you guys have dug up... : X

  20. Yes, it is. Those guys rock, best bang for the buck : -)

    No idea if Autel's HDR will beat it... But also for its intrinsic tracking capabilities:
