This was a behind the scenes look at how we used the Panasonic GH1 to shoot at a very interesting angle, where a normal prosumer camcorder could not be used.
The footage is intercut with Canon HV20 and Panasonic GH1. This footage was used for our 48 hour film project submission, The Apple in Chicago.
Shot on Panasonic GH1
using Minolta MD lenses

@jasonmccausland you want good sound. a shotgun mic can work fairly well in this situation to cut down on unwanted reverberations in a tiled room such as a bathroom. IN a real movie, you would have a hidden wireless on the guy and the shotgun. In an even bigger movie, you would shoot this MOS (minus optical sound) and put in diagetic in post. foley

@Joni0001984 uhhh, space concerns. you have to consider the depth of the room and where you put your camera. thats why shooting on a stage has its benefits of flying out walls. It obvious you have never shot professionally, or are making unnecessary compromises for ease. they did a good job here. That being said, i was expecting a more difficult shot...

Why not just shoot in the middle of the room with a cameraman, another guy turnin on and off the water when the actor pretends to, and let the actor splash from a bucket of water. I would have believed it.

@KeeHartProductions I thought it sounded like a bare room. zero warmth. but i guess you can fix that in post.

Why would it matter? Obviously it sounded great.

Why was a shotgun mic being used indoors?
