cojocaru27 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Silly question here but am going to ask anyway. Sorry for wasting your time guys. I am wondering what gear are the guys using to shoot humans of New York mini documentaries for Facebook? Could they use a dslr or is it a proper video camera like baby alexa or something similar? thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Dunno, but sharing a link for context for others:https://www.facebook.com/honytheseries/videolist/2352311818327650/ If I was you, I'd start by hunting around to see if you can spot BTS pics. Such as maybe on their instagram. Check out the credits at the end of who shot it, then check out their social media as well.

OF COURSE! if ive learned anything about filmmaking, its that NO ONE CARES about stuff like that but us theres never been anything shot on a dslr that was unsuccessful BECAUSE it was shot on an dslr so im just sayin... dont let the gear be a barrier between you and making great content. only nerds like us notice that stuff lol while some people are sitting on the couch wishing for a camera that costs as much as a new car, others are making films with what they have, and getting their work seen by the whole world online i want UTA to represent me as a commercial filmmaker and fine artist. do you think those folks have ever passed around something really great, and then it gets to the big boss, and hes like "Its good but the highlights clip like shit" looool me neither thats a funny idea tho fuzzynormal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 7D and 50mm 1.2 is for the photography series. 5 hours ago, kaylee said: given the clarity and look i would guess that fb clip isnt from a dslr – maybe one of the mirrorless cams, but id say CX00 if i had to guess but COULD you use a dslr for a piece like this?

That's one of the reasons i am refuse to upgrade my NX1 for a couple of years now. It's just that i like the look so much, it feels organic and it's the kind of look that i wish a mirrorless would give yet, but i am afraid it's not happening. Looking at the slow motion quality and the full frame aspect of the image i can't think of a mirrorless that has that quality in slow motion - just one of the features i have noticed. kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
