** New date following the postponement of the 27th September workshop **
Shooting with High Definition Video
NEW Date: Wednesday 17th October, 2007
Presenter: Mike Raycroft
Venue: 77 Wells Street, London, W1T 3QJ
This one day workshop introduces attendees to the new Sony V1 camera
alongside the Z1 HDV camera. The V1 camera uses three CMOS sensors rather
than the CCDs used by the Z1. It also has a progressive scan shooting mode
with native HDV 1080p and 1080i. The V1 is targeted at the independent
low-budget filmmaker.
Over the course of the day Mike will take a non-technical approach to
shooting HDV1080 with both the Z1 and V1 cameras. Delegates will be given
the opportunity to road test both camera in a series of hands on practical
exercises, including sessions on working with low light and shooting video
with a film look.
Participants will:
* Understand the implications of shooting with high definition formats.
* Shoot their own high definition footage as part of a two person
production crew.
* Learn about MPEG2 compression and GOP encoding.
* Understand down conversion from High to Standard definition.
* Review editing software programmes with HDV capability
All the operational features of the camera will be explained and delegates
will have the opportunity to have their queries answered.
