What I have noticed after using the manfrotto quick release plate, is that it tends to loosen up after using the Glidecam for a bit. Once again, I bought the Glidecam used, so I might not have the right setup. Im just curious, how exactly do people mount the Manfrotto quick release plate itself...

Hi guys. "The Art Of Being Old" is my third production and a short documentary I made 1,5 years ago, when I was 19. I never got to post it here, since I was a bit too lazy to add subtitles, but I finally got myself together and here it is! It is a documentary featuring my lovely grandmom, and...

Bought a manfrotto quick release plate today. Works like a charm. Thanks for the help!

I'm very sorry for the reposting in an old thread, but I didn't see most of the later comments till now. Just want to say thank you. It's very motivating to hear :)

Yeah... I didnt quite get that when I bought it used :/

Hi guys Not long ago I got a Glidecam, however, I haven't really been using it yet. I bought it from a site like eBay, so I don't have the manual with me. I just got a very simple question: What do you use to connect the DSLR to the glidecam? I mean literally the plate that connects the DSLR...

Wow, greatl! Thanks for the comment.:)

You're absolutely right. As this was only my second music video, I discovered some things during the making. One of them being your point. I was so unhappy with the tripod shots afterwards, but I had to include it due to lack of material. Thanks for the criticism though! :yes:

Thanks for the comment. I didn't really put much effort into adding the film effects, it was mostly just as an editing filler sort of. I don't work in After Effects or Premiere. I've been working in Sony Vegas since I was 12... My pc is 5 years old and about to die. When I get a new one my...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTdulAOefBA My second music video. I made everything from filming, directing to editing. It was a no-budget music video shot in about 6 hours over two days. We had no preparation in regards of story-telling or planning besides the location. Shot with Canon 550D...

Thats exactly what I was looking for. I know I can go cheaper ways, but the thing is, I scored myself a pretty good job with a great salary every month, and I've read so much good stuff about the NTG-3 that I've decided it's the one I want to go for. I'm not gonna buy a top professional mic...

I'm planning on buying this mic no matter what, question is how do I mount it :D I'm going to be doing 1-man projects as well as projects with non-experienced boom operators. I'm buying zoom h4n together with the ntg-3. I just wanna know how to mount it onto the camera, so I will be able to film...

Hi I'm about to buy the røde shotgun mic ntg-3. But I was wondering if I have to buy any certain equipment to be able to mount it onto DSLR ? For instance, would I be able to mount the mic onto my DLSR with this...

Inherent Vice by Paul Thomas Anderson 6/10 I felt like there were too many unrelatable and unnecessary characters, which made it a little more confusing than it should have been.. Otherwise great directing as always by PTA, decent acting too.

Woops - I'm sorry. I completely forgot I had it linked in this thread. So, it turned out that the video, as I mentioned, was darker in my editing software (Sony Vegas) and in VLC Player. I'm thinking this might have something to do with VLC player itself, since I have it set as the preview...

Hi guys I finished up my second music video, this time entirely in black and white. But I've a problem........... When I edit in Sony Vegas everything looks perfect. Same goes for when I render - the .mp4 file looks perfect on my pc. But only on my pc. I'm running windows. On my friend's...

That makes great sense. Thank you, even though it's too bad (for me, that is :D).

The aperture on 24-105mm is constant at f/4.0. I did not use any filter nope.

Hi guys So I recently bought a Canon 24-105mm f/4.0 lens for my Canon 550D, but the lens seems very dark. If I'm trying to shoot around 3 pm (it gets dark 5 pm here atm), it will still be very dark even though it isn't even night yet. The lens seems to require atleast 6400 ISO to shoot in...

Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated. I think I'll invest in a Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM, a h4n, some new batteries and a new SD card. The current card I have bugs out and stops the recording automatically and randomly after sometimes 3 seconds and sometimes 20 seconds. Can anyone suggest...
