Hey MG! Thanks so much! Lot's more content coming. RUclips takes me longer to produce because they are a bit lengthy so I'm going to be launching quick tips in Instagram and Tik Tok as well because apparently that's where all the cool kids are! =) If you get the chance, let me know what kind of questions you have and what content you are interested in. Thanks!

Hey there, IW. If I have to edit on the go or on set I'm using either a Mac 16" Macbook Pro or a Dell XPS/Precision (I know there are lots of other great gaming laptops out there but these two work for me). A lot of times when doing work for studio projects you go into their bays some of which are Windows some of which are Mac so at this point I'm OS agnostic and whatever gets the job done works fine for me. But if you only have a laptop and are working on really heavy footage then you definitely want to think about using a proxy workflow which is a breeze to edit and then when finished you just do a conform and render.

Thanks for checking it out! A lot more to come!

Thanks Luke! Yes these books will really give you many different views on the storytelling process and even though writing is a highly personal form of creation, it's great to get some views on structure or other opinions on ways it has been done. Have a great day!

Thanks so much! Yes it was a fun shoot done in about a day and a half.

Hi Tyrone, glad it was helpful! Thanks for the kinid words.

Hi there. Happy new year. From my experience you won't be able to get anything close to the look you are going for simply because long exposures like that to make water that smooth often take 3-6 seconds depending on the exact you are looking for. Theoretically you could lower it to 1 fps and try setting the shutter speed to match at 1/1 or perhaps try using the 180 angle setting but again you'll have to experiment. I don't think you'll get the look you are envisioning simply because 1 frame per second is still not slow enough to get that smooth look. I may be wrong, but I don't have a body of water nearby to test this on at the moment. Let me know what you see if you test it.

Hi Maurice, I used Canon L Series lenses with AutoFocus switched on and the camera maintained excellent Auto-focus. There were about 6 shots total (other than drone shots) where I used manual focus for a macro shot because I was playing with the Sony A7S2 which doesn't have autofocus. The C300 Mark II's DPAF autofocus system is amazing and very empowering for me as an owner/operator often called on to do shoots as a one-man band.

Dare Stevens okay so you were not actually shooting in 60p because the cameras DPAF doesn’t work at this frame rate. I tried it earlier today at 120 FPS; however I did notice the the Focus Assist does work with the L series glass. Thanks for posting.

Hey there. Yes you should do a standard slate at the start which usually consists of your name and saying what part you are trying for and then showing full body front and profile. Slates are usually just 10 seconds or so. Then cut to the audition. If they aren't providing you with a script or a sample script to read from that's kind of unusual unless you are doing an unsolicited audition. Either way, I would suggest taking a scene that you like from a similar themed movie and re-enacting that scene. What most producers and directors are looking to see is first if you physically fit how they have envisioned the part and then acting ability both in emotional terms as well as the ability to remember and repeat lines, theoretically from a script unless the project involves a lot of improv. Hope that helps. Best, Dare

Hi Pablo, sorry for the delay in answering. I prefer the Varicam Lt look out of the camera and think it has a more natural cinematic look so if I had to choose between the two for a small indie feature I'd go for the Varicam. But outside of that in terms of ease of use, convenience, form factor, etc... for run and gun on all my bread and butter client work, the C300 II is my go to. And really with a decent color pass, you can make these two cameras match almost identically except for that slight Canon video'y look that both Canon and Sony have different flavors of. IMO. Again sorry for the delayed reply. Best, Dare

i agree michael but its not ugly either
