I did some testing shoots for the project I try to put together these days. A documentary about Rascism. It will be my first long length video... and it's going to be hard!

I did a small test, inspired by the BBC TopGear show. This guys make the best post-production and editing on the history of TV shows. The image is just stunning.
I didn't do any vignetting although I had to since they do TONS of vignetting.
I blue tinted it, did some color correction and some motion tracking at the first scene. I used Sony Vegas 9.

I started composing the song some time ago but I didn't finish it really, so I thought it could be of some use in this video.

Dad. Canon hf 100 test video. Film look from Vasilis Petridis on Vimeo.

That's my father you see on the video. Please excuse his appearance. He prefers to wear nothing but shorts while he stays at the country house.

I used the I.AF canon hf 100 provides. Well that was a few days ago. Now i have learned how to do something like DOF with the manual focus. It is a great little camcorder. I am pleased.
The song is mine. It's called Homogenus. Please visit MySpace Radius Bass, for more songs.

I tried to do some film look scenes afterwards with Sony Vegas. I am still learning since this is my first camera. Thats why its all so shaky. Well also because i was about 5 meters away from the subject and the camera was handheld.
