Ty Harper Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Hey all,Just shot/edited my first piece. I'm coming from a radio producer/documentarian background and have produced some stuff for television, but this is the first thing I've shot and edited myself.It was done strictly as a learning exercise. I've dabbling in video in my spare time (which has been scarce and so painstakingly slow) for about 5 years now and have learned a lot on these boards. I definitely appreciate the information and experiences shared here and would greatly appreciate any constructive criticisms and advice.Password: MalvernI did basic color correction as I'm just beginning to learn how to grade, and honestly thought it looked decent until it got uploaded to vimeo. So any vimeo tips would be appreciated as well. Here's a run down of the stuff I used:Camera: 5D MKII (ML Raw)Lens: Canon 28mm F/2.8, Canon 100mm F/2.8 L, Canon 80-200mm F/2.8 LAudio: Sennheiser G3, Marantz PMD661Lights: F&V R-300, Lowel Rifa Ex-88Conversion: MLVMysticEdit/Basic Color Correction: Da Vinci Resolve 11 LiteExport: ProRes 422 HQ (resized to HD 1920x1080) Password: Malvern<iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/145473746" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe> <p><a href="https://vimeo.com/145473746">People I Know - Kevin Jones (No Grade)</a> from <a href="https://vimeo.com/tyharper">Ty Harper</a> on <a href="https://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p> Zach Ashcraft, Liam, kaylee and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agolex Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Top notch! Looking so organic and great edit. Makes you wonder why recent cameras don't look any better. Ty Harper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sekhar Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Looks great, love the colors. I also liked the way you did the voice-over and focus. The music didn't quite work for me though. Also, I'm not sure about your goal, but if you wanted to use this as a bio/promo video, perhaps you should add (even begin with) your best pictures, we don't see much of your work. Overall, great job. Ty Harper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blafarm Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Nicely crafted. Loved everything except the title design (size, font, legibility and color). Ty Harper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, great job.Thanks Sekhar! I agree, it would've made sense to throw in actual examples of the photographer's work. Unfortunately this was more an exercise in shooting/editing/getting familiar with grading than sensible storytelling :-) Hey all,Just shot/edited my first piece.
