"The Hitman" a new short

Post SethPascale March 17, 2012, 11:28 pm

Hey Everyone,

I've been following the blog for a while and have been checking out the forum recently. I found the "Aspiring Filmmakers" and thought it was cool to see a lot of people following the dream of film making. Here is a new short called "The Hitman" I did with a friend.

Let me know what you guys think? Thanks.

Thanks, we really tried to push the Canon 7D as much as we could. We were trying to achieve a David Fincher "back lit" feel. We had a fun time making it.

Nice job!
One small note. The shade of the hitman when he fires his gun, would never be like that. But apart from that, I didn't see any weird stuff. :)
Sure as hell can't hold down a job. Not too many professions out there that value forgetfulness. Prostitution, maybe. Politics, of course.

58 seconds in and i'm already loving it

I could wile away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And my head I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain

You did a very good job, the camerawork was great. I have a T2i, is that very different from the 7D? Is that camera heavier/does it provide better quality? I've heard it is more rugged, so I am thinking of upgrading.

Really great cinematography! This was very well done overall. Loved the hints of emotion upon him seeing the trike at the end.

The 7D has better weather proofing, but as far as image quality, they are exactly the same. If you use an external monitor to pull focus, the 7D stays at 1080p when you hit record, where as the T2i down rezes to 480p when recording. From what I've heard, the T4i is right around the corner, as well as the update to the 60D and 7D. So if I were you I would wait to see if any of those cameras have a better actual image then the one you already have.
