New With Us

Long year. Looking forward to the next one. We're zeroing in on a new camera to purchase - the Canon EOS 60D. We're excited to work with an SLR. I like the look of the video recorded with SLRs. Usually the background is kinda out of focus and the images in the forefront are razor sharp. Sharp images fade into shadows. It may be less versatile than a professional camcorder, but its focusing limitations give a nice cinematic feel.

Once we have our new camera, we'll begin shooting (again) on our feature length horror movie, which we want to release on Blu Ray this Spring. Since the video quality of the new camera will be better, we'll re-shoot all the material we've already shot. No worries. It was shit anyway.

Luckily the camcorder we have now is reliable enough to post RSStB (knock on wood). If you watch the new episodes carefully though, you'll notice picture glitches and sound pops all over the place. Oh well. Soon that'll be in the past and we'll be in 1080p.

  1. Hey. Do you guys still have a paypal donation thingy? I could probably spot you $10 or so dollars towards a new cam. It's not a lot, but every little bit helps.

  2. I'm glad to hear your status, guys. Thanksgiving break in lovely Michigan next week. I'll get to eat food -- but also get to eat good Cheeseburgers & Malts!

  3. Hey Alex, I'm a photographer so I know quite a bit about DSLRs. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, I'm LessThanThreeLeo on youtube.

    One thing I would like to mention is that if you're getting a DSLR you should really try and buy some good lenses with it. Lenses are way more important than the camera body.
