Okay it's up. I'm posting it here because I don't understand the "words/no words" bit in the video forum -- and the video uses stills in it as well, lol.

I'm very happy with it even with it's flaws. Between misapplying filtration on the 25mm f/1.4 (I used a crappy vari-ND that dramatically reduced quality) and other "source material limitations" -- combined with my personal foul ups -- it is less than perfect.

I will do some posts on my experience with the GH1 and GX1 for the video and discuss the technical challenges in future posts. The video used the PL 25mm f/1.4 (badly, lol); the 35-100mm (which was always on the GX1) and the 7-14mm f/4. The 7-14mm was used for most of the photography and video.

Everything was shot on manual for the most part: both exposure and focus. With the exception of one scene or two where I tried autofocus and it hunted, there isn't any of that because I didn't use AF.

But I hope it works and here it is. It's about 11 minutes or so long.

Thanks for watching!
 
That was awesome to watch! Thank you for sharing :) I think you captured it all really well and I liked the effect of the stills as well.



Irene,
Have camera will travel & shoot!
 
Version 2 is up

Numerous fixes of exposure, color grading, and some scene substitution for quality. Now all color -- interviews have been made color.
