In search of video examples I also found LightForm. Any experience with that? The videos look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Coffee Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 According to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFIhmbUj0Uw LightForm is noisier, and doesn't hold up to grading as well as VisionColor.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was definitely taking in mumblecore films at the time I made it (2009) but I was more influenced by Wes Anderson, Noah Baumbach and Jim Jarmusch. It was shot on a Panasonic DVX100 (original model, not a or b). I may have to buy that pic profile. I'll probably give Magic Lantern Cinestyle a shot first, and if I'm not satisfied I'll buy Kendy's. Very cool. I had my first day with my XC10 today. I am so bad at color though. Also don't forget the simplest of canon profiles... ProLost Flat.

Liam Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I kinda freaking love my t3i with prolost and a nikkor lens. Even its lack of detail.. I ended up adding a blur to several shots in a short I did recently. And used the digital zoom at one point. I forgot kendy's picture profile is available! Have to check that out. Good luck, Matt! What color tools are you using, @mercer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What color tools are you using, @mercer? I'm using Color Finale in FCPX, color wheels to balance the color, and curves... Master curve for exposure... Usually a slight s curve and then I will tweak the RGB curves a little as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been browsing all the free nle's lately, seeing what I can get away with. weirdly I really like those simple blue-yellow "temperature" and magenta-green "tint" sliders for color when I can get em.

I also just started messing with mojo a little as well. And you're right the sliders are pretty nice. Michael Coffee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Coffee Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Mojo seems to work really well with Visioncolor - seems alot more effective than with my panasonic footage for some reason, possibly because Mojo was released at the height of the DSLR/Canon revolution, so perhaps optimised for Canon's... I like Mojo alot, it can be such a quick way to get a great look happening! I read that the way Mojo affects colours puts some priority to isolating/protecting the skin tones, and also that Visioncolor gives a similar attention to the skin colour range - there does seem to be some synergy happening with these two products!

I know there are some mixed reactions for the AF100 on this site, but I have seen some beautiful videos made with it. This is worth a read: http://anycam.wpengine.com/old-but-not-out/ There is one in my local city going for US$360, have my fingers crossed I might be able to snap it up!

Good read, thanks. For $360, I would have bought that yesterday. After watching some videos on Vimeo, I was half tempted to buy one for 900 the other week.

IronFilm Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Yeah, well its reserve price is somewhat higher though... ? That is just the starting bid point, but nobody has bid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
