I own a T2i and I thinking about shooting a feature length with it. Has anyone journey down this road (feature length w/ DSLR)? Any suggestions?
Support system? I'm not convinced it's needed, with this paperweight camera. Ernest, I would understand if you'd judge my work by the only scene you've scene me do handheld, but that's absolutely not representative of my work. In that scene, I'm walking backwards, and I normally don't walk more than a few short steps at a time, while handheld. As a general rule, my handheld is pretty damn steady, and I never use any support.
I wasn't judging your scene at all, CF. By the way, when do we get to see it?
But for the most basic shots to cover a feature, i would advise at least a tripod and a shoulder mount. Plenty of affordable options out there.
And after that you have to practice with them. The tripod and shoulder mount wont automatically make your shots professional.
I mean you can always keep stripping equipment until u end up with a flip cam and nothing more. But i was recommending things that would get the best basic use out of his DSLR. But yeah, CF is right, you can get away without it as well.
Yeah i remember this clip. You're stuff goes to show the importance of conent, that you can get away with a lot if the content is good and entertaining.
By the way at have you noticed :07 and :08?
EDIT: oops, i just read the description and you say some shots have to be cropped. nvrmnd.
