    Default Best narrative shot on HVXX?

    What films would you say are the best stuff you've seen shot on the HVXX series of cameras? Not test footage, actual narrative pieces. short films/features?

    Nope, they put the camera in the back of a truck, All the slow zooms in the beginning were done after the fact in post.
    I'm feeling frisky!

    Uh, why? You could pull those off pretty easily with the camera itself by toggling the slowest zoom speed in one of the menus.

    I think it was an after thought, but his zooms are about half the speed of the slowest zoom on the camera.

    Thanks antman. The simplest solutions are always the best. Who needs to lay a mile of dolly track when you can get in the back of a truck, and it looks great.

    I still want to make a skateboard dolly for indoor shots.

    I hear you, sometimes it's best to keep it simple. To be honest, I wouldn't waste your time with building the skate board dolly. Your best bet is to just get a small two foot or three foot table stand dolly, like at Indie pro. The reason is, typically when you cut to a dolly shot, your only going use about two feet befor cutting to another shot. Other wise it gets boring. And lugging track is a pain in the ass. Believe me I have a skateboard dolly, and don't use it any where near as much as I would like because it's so big.

    I'm talking about the "YouTube- J'Attendrai Le Suivant (I'll Wait for the Next One)" one, not Mahlen.

    Not much narrative, but effectively creepy and atmospheric. Red |White | Panic is also very good, for being a low/no-budget short.

    Yes good stuff. Did not find it too funny though. But there are even better ones in that series (pangea day):

    None that I am aware of, probably an external mic but no lens adapters or anything like that. As far as I know it was the bare HV20. The color correction is how it gets that look it has.
