    Generator

    do the math.. 800w times 3 = 2400w Thats not much.. but know that cheap cords will eat some of it, so bets to lok for 2 times what you need, that's still only 5Kw or so. Probably easy to find a 5Kw generator You might be better with two or three smaller generators depending on how your...

    Ideas for warehouse spaces in Yorkshire?

    this is one of those set challenges you could do with only a few walls. You wouldn't need to build the entire trailer.. just maybe half of it. Most your shots are going to be tight anyway, you might only normally see one or two walls at any given shot.

    Online Collaboration

    adobe story for sure, only one of you needs to own it, and if you have CC you own it, I thought the newer versions of celtx had a cloud based setup.

    lighting Does anyone else run into this lighting problem (noise in dark areas)

    New lens seems very dark?

    I dont THINK this is true.. maybe in the aggregate??? you have a larger sensor, you have more pixels pickup light?? sure.. but the AMOUNT of light hitting a particular pixel is no different. F4 is just slow. However, aperture is not the only thing that effects light sensitivity. In film...

    Premiere Pro CC 2014 performance issues

    its just a concept I was making up.. In an idea world I would have a system DEDICATED to video editing. No video games, no office apps, not programming tools just video tools. This would give me the best possible performance and assure my system is stable. However, I live in the real...

    Filming a Water Fountain

    The best results will be from manual settings and experiment. The framing and position of the camera in the sample you want to emulate is very different than your framing and position. The sample has more lights in the background, lots of interests and you'll note not everything is black...
