Fixing your audio.

Hollywood has been doing this for years. If your live recorded audio is less than perfect you you want to get it just they way you want it well you can dive in to ADR (audio dialogue replacement) This is the art of bringing your clients in to your recording studio and reproducing their voice. When you have the voice perfect (there is a plug in called Vocalign, not used in this production, that can with with that if your clients can't get the timing perfect) you now have perfect isolated studio quality voices that can now be mixed in to your film. You will have to ad sound elements to match the environment of your film look too tone or such as this video, wind and ocean.

Canon c100 review

Today I feel is the best time and the most fun time to be in the cinema world. Over the years I have always been on the journey for the best quality I can get my hands on. Since my early high school days I have been on top of the camera and editing technology. With each passing year the cameras jumped up in mega pixels and quality. Editing software improved with each version to handle each generation of camera. Flash forward to recent years. Canon has put out some of my favorite cameras and they have truly changed the market place. I have owned a large amount of canon gear (canon 10d, 20d, 40d, 60d, 70d T4i, 7d, 5d, 5d mark iii, XHa1, hv-20, XA10, hf-g20) In my journeys of photography and now cinematographer. My “go to camera” has been the Canon 5D Mark iii over the past couple years. I have filmed award winning web shows, music videos and weddings with this power house. But I still needed more. I would watch movies and say why can’t this camera look like that? Sadly it just wont. With all its greatness came flaws in the video world and it grow old really fast in my eyes. The Canon C100: The next part of my journey was to step up in to the cinema line cameras. I started asking around to fellow film makers and others who have reviewed the Canon C100 and I fell in love. After weeks of reading, learning everything I can learn about the camera before hand, I took the leap. For the price tag on this camera it is just amazing. It has a few left out features that I’m hoping they will enable with a future firmware such as 60p mode. I mean really canon? $5k for a camera and you’re not at least giving us 60p 1080? really? Well out side of that, the video quality, detail, sharpness, built in ND filters, Canon log and dynamic range is just amazing. First what I loved about it was how it felt in my hands. It was like starting a new relationship with a familiar feeling of an old friend, and now to top it off Canon is now taking in c100′s for an auto focus upgrade, a big plus for us that do many weddings each year. Below is my test footage from around the Edgewater N.J. area looking over NYC. All the footage was edited in FCPX and color grade in Film Convert. Film convert is great to color correct with. It pulls out that digital look and ads the beautiful realistic cold and texture of film. - Jon Santos www.rocklifestudios.com
