Are You sure it was made on CANON XL1s? This Canon xl1s? :)

And now seriously question: Why Xl1s if i bet uve cash to buy e.g. XL-H1.

Anyway. This is pro-job Greg.

[derochie]

Thanks. This film was shot in Dec 2000, when the only camera available was canon XL1-1.

[NelsonXL1s]

Thanks for quick answer mate. Im still really impressed with this real "cinelook". How have You get it? Of course if You can say it :)

I try do feel-like cinema on this cam. I'm about to buy indoor lights kit for makeing better documentary films. What should i buy. And last questions - lens. Where can i buy it.

Sorry for this "too many questions", but there is not too many people which have Yours knowledge.

[derochie]

We achieved the cinema look on the XL-1 by shooting in "progessive mode" using the stock zoom lens that came with the camera. The most important factor was proper lighting. I rented a large lighting package and hired a DP who knew how to light well. Best of luck with your projects.

Wow, this is so professional! I'm an XL1s filmmaker too and I'm astounded at the quality you have here. Great work.

[derochie]

Thanks very much. We took our time to light professionally, working with a great DP.

Hey, you left out the part where the CEO sucked up and asked for government funding!

[NelsonXL1s]

One question more. How can i buy FIRST BORN on dvd. I live in the UK.

[NelsonXL1s]

Sorry if i'm intrusive :)

How do You think:

Where could You be now without film-school and staying on getting knowledge from books only and Internet?

"miles behind" or not? How important school was for You. I ask because i am thinking about school. PS. Sorry for my language. Im not english.
