Canon T2i/Canon 550D + Glidetrack - "Glide II"

[jchoo34]

Are glide tracks motorized?

[JesseShotland]

I remember when I first saw 0:53 I thought you guys were weird. Now that I (sort of) know you guys better I still think you're weird.

[Neumannfilms]

@JesseShotland Ha ha ha ha. Such a funny shot.

[lollmees]

Very impressive camera work. And thanks.

[AppBlogger4U]

Your vids are epic love the quality. I'm very new to this camera but check out my vids if you get the chance!!

[Ziakalyan]

How do you do up and down shots with a glidetrack?

[Sparablash]

Amazing, Simply Amazing!

[uglylitterpunk]

McDowell Creek falls?



[Dod3032]

@uglylitterpunk Right you are!!!

[brandonelliot]

Any polarizers used on this one (ie the forest scene at 1:36)??? & you seriously ONLY used the 18-55mm IS lens on all of these shots??? Saw you used the 50MM 1.8 in other vids. Looks amazing!

[DirtyHunGoneWild]

amazing

[themorningperson]

man oo man...youve done a great job...AGAIN.

[medarmy11]

WoW, cool Video.

[vianegativa85]

The transition with the music from the waterfall to the married couple on the beach standing... mmm.... delicious.

I think I may have found my new DSLR :)

[myhorseyelly]

where can i buy a glidetack?

[SeanThomasTV]

@myhorseyelly glidetrack(dot)com

[judutchinski]

wtf? It's so over for production people. the costs are going to drop by next year to epic levels. It'll be tough to keep a business open unless you are brimming w passion. $900 smackaroos get's you a t2i. Add a slider for a little bit more and you are fucking epic. Add some extra lenses, filters and you are going to stomp. The BS has ended and now we enter into a new era. Actually we already entered we are only seeing the beginning. This stuff looks like 35mm film. don't tell me it doesn't.

[Dod3032]

@judutchinski Ha ha, it's exciting though isn't it??

[daxalain5]

Question about the letterbox. So you did an aspect ratio of 16x9 right? Is there any specific letterbox size to it? Coz when I did mine I put a a 2.35 letterbox on a 1080p video. Anyways, I like all of your videos here in youtube and we're getting lots of tips from you. We are getting the sd glidetrack next week and we'll mess around with it. Can't wait:)

[Dod3032]

@daxalain5 1920x816 to be exact

[daxalain5]

@Dod3032 cool! last question. How can u do a jib/rig shots with a glider? I was thinking that 2 guys can pull if off where 1 guy is raising the monopod and the other one is on a step ladder and is doing the panningon the camera. What is your best suggestion? Thank you:)

[dothisdothat321]

this is a nice reel, all of this was shot with the kit lense?????

[grampo567]

I'm your 10,000 Viewer

[hayk7]

AMAZING COLOR CORRECTION!!!!

[jesze2100]

great video thumbs up

[zAtt1337]

0:28 - 50 fps slowmo ?

[Dod3032]

@zAtt1337 60 fps

[MacMave]

This is impressive! The picture quality is amazing and I never seen the Igus Slider used so great! Keep up the way you style the pictures. Sorry for my bad english....

[daddytech]

wow you're a lefty too? (missed this one before) this was some really nice video and put together really well too. very nice! love the beach and waterfall scenes nice and rich in color and depth. did you use the 50mm lens for any of the darker shots? that's my next purchase but i am trying to figure out what the difference is with the 1.4,1.8, & the 1.8 II, and why is there so much of a price difference between them any help would be very appreciated. as i don't want to buy something useless

[HpProductions07]

Hey i was wondering if you could tell me how to get a flat picture style with the t2i, mine is coming in the mail in a few days and ive been scrambling to learn how to do all of this, greatly appreciated.

John

[Dod3032]

@HpProductions07 You go into the Menu and it's on the 3rd or 4th page while in video mode. Go down to the Picture Styles and choose one of the 3 User Def slots, hit the Q button (I THINK) to edit one of these slots. Adjust the settings to what you like and then save it. Then just make sure you shoot in that picture style.

[HpProductions07]

@Dod3032 Sweet! thank you very much :)

[TheSalesmanIsCrazy]

@Dod3032 excuse me im sorry i am new to this but what is a "flat shot"? thanks for your help

[pacmanlegend]

I have a question the color correction at 0:14 is amazing. You show thatare a few times in this video... I was just wondering was it a magic bullet? If it was which one? lol plzzzz

[CoryHeimann]

can you explain the shot at 1:21

[Dod3032]

@CoryHeimann Sure, what would you like to know? How it was done?

[CoryHeimann]

@Dod3032 yeah - thanks so much!

[gadarpur]

@Dod3032

and how can i focus all in picture ?

[ponda199]

@Dod3032 Yeah, how did you do this with a slider? Looks more like a small Jib Crane.

Real nice shots, man!

[TERRAMOUNT]

Which Glidetrack is this? "Glidetrack Shooter HD"?

[excluxivelfc]

Man, first of all: Awesome! Can you tell me how do you do to make this aspect ratio (for what I´ve heard the aspect ratio of canon t2i is 4:3 and it looks like 2.35:1 to me)

Thank you!

[Dod3032]

@excluxivelfc Thanks!

The aspect ratio is 16x9 and then I just added letterboxing in post.

[Glidetrack]

Just found this. Nice work guys!

[bradbeckett]

WOW you're really talented man!

[amcorockx]

Hey Could you tell me what videohead you use on your glidetrack?

Thanks!

[StatusElite]

First off great stuff! Just picked up a T2i and was wondering what you thought of getting an 18-135is lens versus having both the 18-55 and 55-250?

[JayRossProductions]

this again was awesome. i subscribed.

[kvnyng]

wow with the stock lens....

what are the "normal" settings to use?

[2amcreation]

Very nice! i've been wondering for 3 days now... how the hell did you pull off the cell phone shot?? at least a hint? :P

[Dod3032]

@2amcreation It took two of us using the Glidetrack. We stood it up on end using the seat of the picnic table as our surface. I slowly lowered the Glidetrack from standing straight up to being at about a 45 degree angle while Pete moved the housing down the Glidetrack. We did another one of these in the Knik Valley Trailer with the feet sliding off of the cliff. It's one of our favs too btw!

[mrmeadowsiscool]

ok the girl texting i think i shit my pants,. that was an amazing shot

[curnaldinho]

what size is your glide track?

[Dimitry49]

how come you are not a partner yet? i mean you got talent and viewers and views! whats stopping you? the committal to ad-free videos?

[Dod3032]

@Dimitry49 I guess I don't know how. Is it just the "Enable Revenue Sharing" thing? Or is it something you have to apply for?

[Dimitry49]

@Dod3032 Yes, just go to youtube . com / partners and apply! this will enable the revenue sharing and also other cool stuff for your channel homepage! such as new visual styling for your channel for easier navigation. it will popup ads in the beginning of your videos thou. btw, where can i get the glidetrack for under $100? i live in canada?

[Dod3032]

@Dimitry49 Well, that was easy. We will see what they say.

I don't know where to find it for under $100...you might try ebay? I got mine from overseas so it was spendy,

[Dimitry49]

@Dod3032 I'm sure you'll get it! takes a couple of weeks for them to reply btw. so be patient. :D i want to get the T2i, on my Christmas list for myself. better quality video for my channel. If you are interested in computer PC tech, please check it out! cheers!

[theshutterkid]

You shot all of this on a 18-55?? woah. I have been following your videos lately. and i am very impressed. but this video i must say is the most impressive of them all.

But I have the same 550D and the same 18-55 lens. but my footage is alot noisy at low light. and plus the footage isnt this great as wat i am seeing here. any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated. :)

[wubascuba]

holy shit you guys are amazingg and thanks soo much for the tips i just got my T2i and im using the techniques your showing but i want to know where i can get a Glide dolly like you guys have..

[AnttiApinaPro]

Oh wow. I really need a glidetrack.

[paoloscotto]

so did you use original lens from 550d?

great i love your videos.

[shajivm]

Excellent work!

[optimind]

great sequel, you really dominate that track!

[dimebagv2]

amazing shots buddies , i realy like it :D

[john2555]

Hello, those scenes with waterfalls reminds me serial - "THE LOST" ! :)) nice job

[Andrew9712]

Very nice video!

[youbz2002]

very nice as usual . please tell me , where did you found that wonderful music ?

[carlosldc]

I'm having problems to edit my t2i videos on Vegas 9.0, when i try to play it plays 1 sec and stop. what's your PC system config? Processor, memory and video card. thanks in advance and congractulations! i'm your fan Daniel!

[mrmeadowsiscool]

dude 1:42 is so beast

[zackes1990]

Your camera work is fantastic, can you share some of the settings you used with magic bullet mojo, i know every shot is different, but a tip on what to adjust would be great!

[BradleyDPayne]

Glidetrack = Instant Awesomeness..... Glidetrack + This Music = Instant Epicness

[sheensmusic]

where do you get your MUSIC!.....

[Dod3032]

@sheensmusic It's Two Steps From Hell, they do Trailer music. They came out with a CD, Invincible...it's great.

[sheensmusic]

Great shots good eye>>>I am having rendering and t2i difficulties but I am learning....

[sheensmusic]

my pvc slider rocks

[davcoolbeans]

You should try to create a low budget slider that works as well as this one! I know many people (including myself) would be very grateful.

[Dod3032]

@davcoolbeans I wish I had the time man...that is a very good idea though.

[sye005]

Hiii , could you tell me what flat picture preset do you use while shooting ????? or is it ur own Flat custom picture style ????

[Dod3032]

@sye005 Yeah, just make a Custom one in the menu. Set Contrast and Sharpness all the way down (-7 I think) and then leave the other setting at their default (0).

[sye005]

@Dod3032 , Thanks Dude :) .... i made a Video with this kinda settings :) .... ll Upload n let you see tat soon :) ....

[brucefarmer1]

yu make a t2i look like a RED1 OR 5D....wen i can be as guud s u are my kids will be able to get fries with the burger lol

[Dod3032]

@brucefarmer1 Ha ha! Now that is funny. Only if you are kidding though :)

[sye005]

Wow !!!!!!!! Its cool , what Picture style do you shoot with T2i ???? even am having d same camera but my Videos never got look like your videos !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[surrounded]

Beautiful locations, I would love to visit these. Great shots also!

[danglingairfreshners]

One word: Awesome.

[cfsvillanueva]

this seems so epic!!

[MetropolisParkour]

the first shot is fucking awesom

[Dod3032]

@iBRYCELOFCHIE Just head over to their site, not sure the price now but they are well worth it. My most used tool.

[Glidetrack]

Seriously nice work Sir!

[Dod3032]

@Glidetrack Seriously nice slider Sir! :)

[pediamuusika]

How do you get such a good quality in Sony Vegas...?

[SillyFokkerRC]

Awesome! This is probably such a newb question but cant this be done in post production.

ATB Ghosty

[Dod3032]

@SillyFokkerRC To a degree...but not really. I mean, you can zoom in and then pan the shot like you would a photo, which I do sometimes, but it really doesn't come close to capturing the "glide" look.

[acrogs]

awsome, I need a glidetrack haha

[ProfessorMacintosh]

Was this all shot with the 50mm lense?

I bought my Rebel just last week and also the Canon 50mm f1.8.

Me and my crew have shot two shorts with it so far, of which one was finished in post today. It looks really great, but this seems to look just a little "greatier"...

Delicious!

[Dod3032]

@ProfessorMacintosh 18-55 IS actually, the kit lens!

[dreamy7364]

i have to change my pants!

[Beardnor]

Dig it very much. Very cool.

[drumat5280]

Luke you are getting really good at coloring your footage! My favorite two shots are the golf ball landing and the last beach shot with the couple. Anytime you want to come on my podcast and tell others how you color your shots you are more than welcome!

[Dod3032]

@drumat5280 Awesome!  How does it work?

[drumat5280]

@Dod3032 Great, if you can send me an email through my site and we can talk about it there.

[lotsaEntertainment]

I'm lovin the cat at 0:50 lol

Also I just got this cam yesterdayI'm so stoked i posted an unboxing vid on my channel if your interested!!!

[blazepro1]

teach me how to make that rig...

[Dod3032]

@blazepro1 Ha ha, wish I could. I didn't make it though.

[KungFuMastur]

Epic!

[paoloscotto]

really like it!

[damiensmurf]

[pannuproductions]
