More from Ignitus
Hello fellow furries and dear watchers,
its time for another fursuitvideo from me, my friend Skeppo and some fellow fursuiters. This time we had a little more help, as you will see in the video. Skeppo (Husky in the video) and me (this time not in the video) did a crossover with one of our really good friends Fjordwolf (DJ Fursuiter). He wanted to do a musicvideo with us. In September it finally happened and during the EAST convention in Saxony, we had the chance to shoot it.
We summoned all the fursuiters we could find on the location and tried to make a music video for the song "Glow" from the Group Madcon.
For me personally this is rather a little more dissapointing what came out here. I don't find it bad, but there had been several problems during the shoot and the editing.
The plan was to make a long sequence shot along with a big finale in the dancehall of the location. But it turned out far more difficult than we thought. Filming a two and a half sequence by foot with a rig that is more meant for doing silent shots is really something I wouldn't fight to do again. Well, maybe with a better equipment. After four takes I seemed to be actually more exhausted than the fursuiters! XD
And we shot with two different cameras, which was also a big mistake regarding the quality difference on the one hand and the different codecs on the other hand.
For the dance sequences I used my Nikon D5100 with a 15-105 mm lense. I shot at 1080p (1920x1080) with 25 fps. The long sequence shot was filmed with a Panasonic camera, though I don't know the exact type anymore. It shot with 1080i (1440x1080) and 25fps.
During the editing process it was very hard to combine those two formats, as the Panasonic had a real dubious kind of codec which gave me nightmares. I had to convert the material to a 1080p format with 1920x1080 pixels to be able to get them together in the editing software.
I just hat took the Panasonic cam for the advantage of having a decent autofocus. My DSLR also had one but it was far to slow to use. And I already had too much to do with the walking and holding the camera still during the long sequence shot.
Well, I know as the cameraman and editor I'm always a little more serious about whats coming out and I see my mystakes more than others do. I'm glad that I finally put this little project to an end.
And yes, some of the material is quite noisy. This happens when you film without extra light and a (DSLR) camera that is more focused on working autoimatically. Means you weren't able to controll the ISO and the aperture during the shoot. I really need to get a new camera.
But well, enough moaning about the quality, just enjoy the video!

TOD - death? This is good
And as for the material,
The camera has a hardware codec.
and has the ability it convert to mp2
Just takes time, and the program which I had on my laptop
You get the original size, and had a problem.
Next year, I will try to convert on material immediately mp2
and sorry for the problem

Awesome, nice to come across another person with some talent, taste, and style.
Few things to critique because I like this...
I enjoyed how the build up was made throughout the gathering of other suiters leaving the hotel.
Could of used a little more coordination and a steady camera when the suiters got outside, missed the opportunity for some epicness there.
It was kind of a let down that the build up lead to simple big dance party in the end, there could of been more done. There is a lot of potential here I look forward to seeing it explode.

Thank you very much for the nice words.
YEEEES, I know what you mean. Of course there is a big lack of epicness and coordination. We had to fight to get all the fursuiters together and some of them even statet out clearly they are not dancers and want to be more in the background. Its actually okay, but well, you have to take the best out of it.
Steady Cam, yeah. -.- We didn't had one. Had to film it with a selfmade rig, but that is more meant to do silent shots. It was hard to walk with that and keep it silent. I'm a poor student (still ;) ), I can't afford all the gimmicks and stuff that would make it look more professional.
And for the finale: It happened on the last evening of the event and I also had to get together all suiters again so film it. Because we couldn't block the dance hall all night, we just made One single shot of the whole song, where i walked arround the suiters and took the shots that I could.
I guess the main point was just the lack of time. We came up with the idea, summoned the suiters and had to shot it really quick because everybody wanted to attend other things as well on the con. But I guess thats the problem with all the cons you attend.
Nevertheless, I hope I can get myself some more equipment or good ideas to make it look better and smoother next time.

read your description, got to say had the same problem fighting against potential noise in the film. Got a T3i, you gotta have light but too much equals noise "omg want to tear my eyes out" I'm having a struggle myself trying to find that cinema quality filming style, Ez wolf and looks like you have down rather well.
