I shoot documentary films and TV segments and I'm looking to buy an on camera light. Because a lot of the shooting that I do is on the fly, preventing my from bringing an entire light kit to the shoot, I would want an on camera light that would provide sufficient lighting for interviews, night...

a used dvx100 it can shoot 24p and has a lot of manual settings.

you can do it either one of two ways. I'm use final cut, but you can do this with other software too. 1. shoot the scene with blank space on a pretty blank background. Then import the clip. Take the clip of the tsunami and put a mask, the more points the better, on it. Then move the masked...

I'm a high school student from Chicago. I've made one feature documentary film that was mostly talking heads, and now I want to make a more personal documentary where I follow somebody's life for a summer. The problem it I don't know who or what to make it about. I've considered a number of...

HD is the biggest wast of money ever for an amateur. You can get so much of a better camera that's not hd for the price of an hd camera, and unless you happen to have a spare blueray burner and a huge external harddrive to sore the footage on it's no good any way. I would recommend either a...

I make documentaries and most of the time I am alone when I'm filming. Since I don't have a second person to carry a microphone I normally get bad audio. I use tie clip mics for long interviews, but when I'm interviewing people in crowded places (such as streets) where I don't have time to mic...

Ya I was able to use the option in Final Cut to create a gradient, cropped it, saved it as a second layer, and then but text from Boris FX over it as a third layer. Thanks for your help.

I'm Making a documentary with Final Cut and I am wondering what kind of titles would look the best for interview with people, where I would put their name on the top and who they are on the bottom. I have the Boris FX plug in for titles and it allows you to do a lot of different kinds of 3d...
