ah, well, fuck you very much flynn. your logo is cracking, but your flv's suck as much as anybody else's. (who sold you on killing qt, honestly? oh, and: while you're at it, why didn'tcha go straight to silverlight? it's state of the art, i swear!)

lisanowak, 10. April 2008, 01:59

agreed.

Did anyone else see the video? I love it. Does anyone else agree with me that Michael Baldwin is awesome?

Progosk, I think you could probably start your own AM talk show about your strong feelings of hatred toward certain video formats.

progosk, 10. April 2008, 11:27

it *so* gets my goat when folks - specially those who should know better - let themselves be technologically lulled... ;-)

hey prog!

are you getting shy? why is your typo so small?

progosk, 10. April 2008, 13:30

when they're just my pet gripes, i try to keep them unobtrusive; full measure's for thoughts about the video.

loz, 10. April 2008, 18:23

well, i ain't afraid to say it big... THAT FLV PLAYS JERKY AS HELL.
having that same flv vs qt fight trying to make my new website work, and starting to lose it.

on a really geeky tip, what do you do then if you want ot use H264s, but don't want just anyone else with quicktimepro to be able to download them off your site? any suggestions welcome...

BUT
i really like the video though. could've done with a bit more darkness in hallucinations/whatever, or more of an ending. but cool idea, and nicely shot.

You play thru with Flash, like Youtube is doing right now.

otc, 11. April 2008, 20:31

Don't fight it. People will just download your FLVs anyways.

progosk, 11. April 2008, 22:07

actually, i'm interested: for what reason would you not want someone to be able to download your videos?

Does anyone know what camera this was shot on? Was it film or digital? Cheers

mr.b, 13. April 2008, 18:45

it was a Pansonic HDX900 with Pro35 and Zeiss Ultra primes. Great camera as it shoots 50fps with sooooooo much more ease than the unfriendly Varicam!

wes anderson titles + art direction

mr.b, 13. April 2008, 19:56

ay, captain! can't beat a bit of Futura. it's a classic and Kubrick's favourite font to boot!!

lloyd, 14. April 2008, 13:06

Thanks Mr.b. I really like the video, the guys expressions in the doorway when he sees the real robbers, and the French speaking part, magic

lloyd, 14. April 2008, 13:26

Was it shot 720p 25p to 50p overcranked, to a firestore? What framerate do you use for the slightly overcracked sections? I've used a HVX before but that camera looks like a pro version.

mr.b, 14. April 2008, 16:33

the hdx900 records a true 50fps at 720p so avoiding a frame rate converter. Much nicer than the Scaricam!

lloyd, 14. April 2008, 17:25

Does the pro35 attach to the hdx without a lens? so: hdx(no lens) > pro35 > Primes? I've used a hvx with a brevis 35mm adapter with SLR primes, but can't get it looking that good. Sorry for all the questions mr.b

mr.b, 14. April 2008, 23:36

click on my profile and send me an email, i can go into more detail without boring all the antvillers with a massive posting...

would be cool to have a full technical back-list, with details concerning Camera, Lenses and Format to each video here

comment!
