Well since I always loved the movie business and lately I've been fortunate enough be on a lot of movie sets and been able to talk to everybody and learn a hole lot of stuff and also at university the two of my favorite classes were photography and videography but I just didn't have the gear to try it out and get good at it I decided to do a fun summer project a dance video. Because I used to be a professional dancer and these days still teach salsa, bachata and lately kizomba dancing I decided it would be cool make a video and a choreography with my significant other who loved this song one time.
So here it is. With all the stuff I've learned made to look in a movie style and everything filmed with my D7100 and edited by me.
My only comment on my D7100 was that I keep comparing the footage to what I usually see on shoots with the Arri Alexa and I keep seeing the color compression and the resolution is a bit to low. I'd love to have more than just HD to make the editing a little easier (easier to film something and crop it a little than have to worry about very precise blocking). Of course manual focusing witch is always done but since I was filming everything solo I needed someone in one scene to do the follow focus witch was problematic. Other than that... it was fun and can't wait to do the next fun project.
It's called "Last Dance" (of the evening because it literally was the last dance when we got the idea for it). Hope you enjoy it.
