Something Extra...
Just thought I'd post something for some inspiration:
Slow motion skateboarding video in 600 fps:
And how he does it is below. He has some rare camera that requires a laptop for viewing what he's just captured.

Some Suggested Reading/Videos about FILTERS
1. SUGGESTED READING:
Guide to Camera Filters and How to Use Them
How, When and Why to Use a Polarizing Filter and this is also good explanation of polarizer filters
(Please read about the many kinds of filters but look specifically for the filters that we have for the SONY HDV cameras - see list below)
In TCF we have the following filters for the HDV cameras:
Most commonly used:
UV --- to protect the glass on the camera lenses
Polarizer ---- to reduce glare on glass and water and to enhance sky
Other filters we have:
Soft Con
Graduated
Color Graduated
Promist
Black Promist
and a few others...
2. WATCH A FEW CLIPS:
Note: the effect of the filter and how the effect is adjusted by rotating the filter
* * * * *
DSLR FILTER BONUS:
Later in the course we'll move to DSLR cinematography. One of the limitations of these cameras is the moire effect. Here's a filter that eliminates it! We don't have one (yet) in TCF, but watch how it works:
Canon 7D Anti-Aliasing Filter Review - Clean! from cinema5D on Vimeo.
Here are some links about it that you should read
1. NoFilmSchool's post with Philip Bloom video about 5D filter fix
2. Positives and negatives about 7D filter by Cinema5D
Also please note that we NEVER take a screwdriver to the inside of a TCF camera --- John Chisholm will do that for us! ; )
