7d is the new big thing - 1,800 - handheld, but has great picture or HMC40 - 2,000 - semi pro, AMC card both 1080p 24fps other than that, you're not going to get anything pro grade HD. Actually, you may be able to get a GL...3? dunno. Neither have XRL inputs either, you'd have to get...

You’re looking for a wide angle lens adapter, not a wide angle lens - check reviews - look for distortions - all wide angle lenses have minuet distortions to figures up close – but on cheap lens adapters it may look terrible.

ahah you should move to ohio, all they shoot here are horrors. Horror and death metel - that's ohio

You can't light an entire pond at night without expensive and expansive equipment or It'll look terrible. I've tried - you can light foreground elements, but that’s it... maybe - no backlight if you're over water. If you don't have access to tons of equipment, and you have to shoot this scene...

You're going to get a silhouette if you're only using backlight. Is that what you're going for? Plus, it's not going to be a perfect silhouette - you're going to have light spill onto your subject creating a soft edge. Use hard direct light, don't diffuse. You can use after effect's luma key to...

Falsh cameras generally have - no moving parts - the theory is that this will make them last longer. They also can endure greater environmental conditions, heat, cold, water? who knows. You can also crank the footage which is new to digital tech - Check out ACM cameras - great low light, 1080p...

wheatgrinder - just hook a computer monitor up to your camera - you can find pretty much every conversion piece you need regardless of model. I had to do that on my last shoot, it was SD and 16:9 squeezed into 4:3, but it worked for focusing - if all else fails, Manhattan LCD has a monitor sale...

movement - jibs and dollies - composition - color - you can pull quite a bit out of your camera if you learn to properly white balance in order to bring out contrast, your vectroscope and histogram meters. You need manual controls as well so you can at the very least lock your exposure. Just...

urgggg, you get such nice quality out of that little thing... sorta wish I hadn't spend thousands spanned over years on my stupid rig. I'm gonna go lie down, or throw up, or both. Great job though, story works, picture looks good. The walking shot at the beginning bothered me, but it was...

Punching in/pan and scan is pretty cool, but you lose quality

Why did you shoot on red? None of your other stuff on that site is even production material - this looks like your first shot at a movie and you used top of the line pro equipment - the issue is that you don't have the experience necessary to compete on a professional level, and yet you're...

No copywrite material - the images came from google, and music from who knows, but - if its not from a friend, or something you made, then someone owns it. Trim your edits - you've got lingering shots where the girl stops at the edge of frame and then continues on in the next. The rest of the...

Yes - it won't get made, and if it does, it won't be aired - you've got nothing but minors - at one stage being molested and the other talking about it as key elements; pretty sure thats taboo everywhere. If I were directing it - I'd say make the second stage girl in college so then at least you...

DVDs are cheap - it's more of a time cost - sooo if you don't get one, its generally because someone didn't care/wasn't responsible - its not generally a budget constraint - welll.... having said that, it maybe if you're silk screening, using high end dvd printing and labeling - but that...

Shoot in the highest quality possible for your budget and then down convert, or do whatever you need to match the desired media outlet. Even pristine HD looks a little fogy when blown up in a movie theatre - you have to down convert film to fit anywhere - Its about 1/4 quality to air film/4k a...
