Tell Us More

I liked what you did here. As a shooter of live street musicians, I know the challenges of making interesting and high-quality videos from live events that one finds accidently.

In particular, I liked the cuts from full body dancer to close-ups of the feet movements and the slow zooms to focus on the face. You kept up with the unpredictable movements of the dancer well. The musicians are well-exposed, given the backlighting. The one issue is the blown-out background (I hate it when the street musicians perform in the shade on a sunny day).

This is an equipment forum. Tell us what you shot with - the mics, the camera, the lens, the picture profile (did you use a log profile to maximize dynamic range?). Were the zooms done in post, or using the lens? Why is the video HD and not 4K?

Tell us more.
