GCS - Audio Master Class

The latest episode Go Creative Show is all about mastering audio for video production, industrial films, and commercials. Ben and Matt talk about what effects and tricks they use most often clean up audio, to float dialogue on top of music, and more. The whole thing is pretty interesting even though they're mostly talking about Pro Tools not Audition.

I found this to be a really nice refresher on design composition.  Also, if you go to THIS ARTICLE ON MOTIONOGRAPHER, you can check out some more great tutorials on creating reels.

Star Trek Into Darkness Title Design

Pretty ridiculous that they created this with AE and Element 3D. However, I'm fairly certain this would make any of our computers hemorrhage and die, so don't go asking me for some in depth planet fly through with fiery stars.

Always good to have something like this in our back pocket.

Sony FS700

So these guys at Neumann Films tested out the FS700 and it's capabilities for slo-mo. I found out from a quick search on Philip Bloom's blog that this thing shoots 1080p and 240fps and at lower resolutions 480fps and 960fps. I am still hoping we can all rent something like this and make a video exactly like this one day. We gotta "test" new equipment too right? We should spoil ourselves and do something like this to celebrate the good year.

Oh and by the way, these guys made a behind the scenes blog post along with allowing download of their RAW footage. The blog post has a lot of great videos, talks about the camera setting, and just shows some of the fun they had. Little teaser - they got the helicopter for free, if you read you'll see why.
