    Looks like an interesting project. Was this shot with an XL2? I saw an XL2 or an XL1 in one of those images on your site! Couldn't tell from the angle though. Any plans to do some color grading?

    Website Hosting

    cpanel is one of my favorites. I just took a look at Plesks demo and didn't see any reason it could be considered better. My current cpanel setup has more options (as far as I can tell). Am I doing something wrong? I signed in as a 'domain owner'.

    editing DV into film look

    Color grading. If you can do it yourself or find someone skilled to do it you can get a lot closer to the look.

    know how to set someone on fire?

    Well you could always go the safe digital route... which is what I would do if I didn't have access to the necessary trained pros and supplies. That's not something I'd try doing myself!

    HVX Not all it seems to be - Specs released

    Oh I hear ya! I wasn't meaning my reply to be a rebuke! You make a very good and very legitimate point. Certainly spatial offsetting comes with a price. I don't know enough about the gritty details to know precisely what those are though. It would be interesting to find out! The Chroma...

    HVX Not all it seems to be - Specs released

    For the record I think it's only fair to clarify a few things. I'm not a huge supporter of the HVX - I'd rather have and Andromeda DVX myself... but I think your post gives a slightly unfair impression. The HVX is full 4:2:2 is 720p mode. In 1080p mode it is indeed compromised due to the CCD...

    Definitely true about academia knightly! I often have to remind myself to write in the active voice since much of my writing is academic in nature. Very good summary. The only difference is a focus on subject vs object. Many people get confused when reading about this since it's often...

    NetFlix and "throttling"

    FWIW, I don't see how anyone has that much free time a month or how you could possibly continue to rent new movies which don't suck. There are only so many good ones out there!

    Fencing

    You're absolutely right Knightly. Most peoples fencing experience is much different than a real duel. Modern fencing has really become a sport and strayed from its original intent - training for life and death situations. Some people like the style better. I'm not a big fan myself. I love...

    Fencing

    Thanks for the support Clive. Much appreciated! Sounds like a fascinating project idea! Spain would certainly be a good choice. Have you ever thought about shooting in the US? I don't know if that would cost more than Spain. I know some of the western states (Montana for sure) have some...

    Wow, someone actually bothered to read the whole mess! =) Nadi has a very interesting style of storytelling. He really makes his experience your experience. I definitely think it's a skill a director should have as well. Wish I could say I knew how to ride! Have you taken lessons before...

    Fencing

    So far the slippery pebbles of the paddock, upon which my street shoes (dueling regulations) could not find firm foothold, had prevented the possibility of any well-determined movement. I had succeeded in not retreating at all, and had limited my footwork to the short, strictly necessary motions...

    Fencing

    Well, never mind the heart. Let it jump. Not without a little effort, you succeed in pulling yourself together by taking a deep breath, actually whispering: "Just mind your own skin." As a cue, the director speaks his last sentence: "Gentlemen, on guard!" These, and none other, are the words...

    Fencing

    Here's the section from "On Fencing" by Aldo Nadi that recounts his person duel. READ THIS! Absolutely fascinating to read - this guy is maybe the best fencer of all time and his personality really shows. You don't need to know anything about fencing to read this! I'm quite certain that this...
