lookin good guys!

i feel like hfr stuff speaks to the same principle – more is not more, less is more when it comes to people talking for hours. the failed experiment of the hobbit comes to mind. tbh fuzzy, youre so old school (which i like), i thought youd hate high frame rates? on the other hand i support high frame rates for other stuff – vr, videogames, etc. but, as an inverse to my point above, i think that high frame rates are most at home with super visually iconic content, like this

ive given this a lot of thought, and, imho: film grain, as we know it, adds a lot to a certain kind of motion picture filmmaking. would it add a lot to gopro drone footage of a beach? no, and heres why youre looking at the beach. watching a movie is like looking though a window as opposed to looking at a window a huge amount of narrative filmmaking is just footage of people talking. when we experience a conversation in real life, we dont look AT the person we're talking to the same way we look AT the beach video. this is one of the reasons that super shallow depth of field can be effective – im not looking at the tip of your nose while im talking to you. scott mccloud explains it like this film grain provides a visually soothing abstraction of reality that is particularly useful for movies where people are talking to each other for 2 hours. its organic rhythm gives us a sort of translucent repeating pattern to look through that we perceive on a conscious as well as an unconscious level. it relaxes us, to listen to a story – its subliminal; hypnotic. and it feels more like real life when we're interacting with people, as illustrated above although film grain is great at doing all this, what im describing should apply to any kind of subtle pattern noise – which is something im going to experiment with. im not suggesting that a film image is empirically better than a noiseless alexa image, but for reservoir dogs, i think it is. a new purely digital patterned noise that does not seek to emulate film grain would prolly work pretty well too – as long as its not distracting or hideous, obviously. id like to develop that idea and now, back to your regularly scheduled programming

oh i agree, there was some irony in my rant. and im shopping for a deal on a mk3 too ? i hear ya. sounds like a plan. tbh a big part of my complainyness comes from learning stills shooting 35mm film, im one of those many legacy photographers who likes ff as much for aesthetic reasons as because it reminds me of my childhood ?

this is hilarious, @Sam232 congratulations on your first post. i would quit now while youre ahead to maintain the best possible honor points ratio oh snap! im not done complaining about this camera yet!!! IF THE 5D4 HAD A KILLER 2K MODE WITH A BUNCH OF FRAME RATE OPTIONS I WOULDNT BE AS MAD ABOUT THE HUGE 4K CROP WTF CANON ARRRGGHHHH

@Andrew Reid this is fantastic looks like you did a great job! really looking forward to seeing the results on a 1dx2 could someone post some mjpeg EOSHDclog footage ungraded? ideally with a human in it? i kno thats asking a lot sorry lol

agree. or longer. or never fair enough, but to me the ml 5d3 raw is a ~unique~ video image. one of a kind. its not those other cameras, great as they may be. those who dont feel that way – of whom there are many – are obviously not interested in hacking an existing canon slr, let alone a brand new one for me a 5d4 is extremely attractive with a raw video hack, even at an improved 1080p, but thats in addition to its features as a stills camera. i want a camera that does both, one thats stealthy enough to not attract attention im sure there are others on this board who always post about video and never about stills, like me, who have just as much interest in a "hybrid" camera sorry i dont mean to come off as didactic, its just that i forget that myself sometimes lol. cuz if i didnt give an f about video and i just shot stills with a 5d3 id prolly look at a 5d4 as a great upgrade

love: raw stills color/ml raw color. it needs some wrangling (neon greens?) but it makes people look AHmazing. incredibly lifelike and also very flattering hate: they still havent made an affordable slr that shoots awesome 1080p... still.

agree agree

you guysll be happy to know that there is talk of the rock wrestling vin diesel at next years wrestlemania. for real and guess what else... hes gonna be a governor or even president one day. hes been talking about it for years. again – for real. arnold schwarzenegger was governor of california i predicted his success as an actor a loooong time ago so mark my words. and he deserves to make the most money in hollywood – hes the biggest draw, biggest name, puts asses in seats, kills it on social media, hes the hardest working guy in show business that has nothing to do with the fact that hollywood is at an all time low in terms of serious content creation, but dont blame dwayne for his success in the world we share. hes all over the moment we live in also the rock is a god hes a man and a half. hes HUGE. hes super athletic, he has more charisma in his little finger than most of these guys have in their entire bodies and now john cenas getting over in hollywood and with audiences as an actor thanks to some huge behind the scenes push.... i can only dream of having agents like that. and cena will do it... he'll become a movie star. at one time i said no (hes tried this before to a lesser degree) but audiences like him now but cenas no rock. of course, you guys already know that

ugh

thats exactly what i meant, thank you any chance of ml turning their attention towards the 1dxii? maybe the 5d mark v will have cfast 2.0 when it comes out in 2020 ?

is ml possible without cfast?

omg ?

hmm weird dan chung says

the crop is a secret ? i kno rite. ive been waiting ?

oh the show should always satisfy! the payoff has to equal the wait time ?

interesting discussion is watching 17 hours of one show nonstop a fad? absolutely not: its the new way, people love it, its a normal part of media consumption now when i first heard of this phenomenon, i was actually surprised that people have the attention span to watch, say, an entire season of a show at one time. as a content creator who might want to make some abnormally long content in the future, and just in general, i find this encouraging. i think it will allow more options for people like me be that as it may, theres something to be said for the empty time between installments of a serialized product when im into a show, i spend that time with the characters, even though theyre not on tv. so when the sopranos comes back after a season break, im like Whats been going on in their lives the past X number of months. additionally, the sopranos wasnt meant to be watched back to back for 6 seasons – it wasnt designed that way. but thats not to say that one could take binge watchers into consideration during the early stages of conception for a product, in order to produce a show that can be watched in 44 min episodes or in 7 hour chunks at a time waiting is also good. hell waiting is the best. whats better than anticipation? that time is significant getting a show over that people HAVE to watch live is really hard these days.... live tv used to be a thing, now i think most would prefer watching at their convenience. for narrative its a tough sell. i watched the main event of UFC 202 live the other night because it wouldnt have been the same later (i was rooting for nate diaz btw #stocktonstrong #frownyface) the times are changing thats for sure

its the new alan smithee. you should use it in the credits of your feature Directed By Random Guy

hmmmm... http://www.canonwatch.com/canon-eos-5d-mark-ivs-dual-pixel-raw-focus-adjustement-postprocessing-new-image-detailed-specs-leaked/ edit: whoops sorry if someone already posted this

good responses here i would say it totally depends on what youre doing... what are you producing? a doc? a kubrick-like feature? even though im a fine artist, im literally working on a 14 foot drawing right now, i came kicking and screaming to the crushing realization that to make my first feature the way i want, i have to storyboard every shot. that epiphany came some time ago, and im a lot more knowledgable now, so the very idea that i even though it was optional is laughable today, its ironic. but thats for me the SIMPLEST storyboards can be amazingly useful, a quick sketch that anyone can do can show lens choice, character movement, camera movement, etc. hell, look at this guy these suck and his films have worked out ok
