Brewing up newness, plus a mac ad parody
Ok so while we’re still getting things off the ground here, enjoy a nice parody on the mac switch adverts.
I’m not at all advocating the act of buying, or even keeping, your PC - but this advert is great.
We’re currently giving the Triple 3 website a facelift, whils finishing off 2 or 3 new video projects that will all appear here in due time.
Don’t forget to follow me on Shitter - and i look forward to seeing you soon…
2fp Test Shots with HVX200
Here’s another update on the HVX200.
Those that don’t know but care to find out; there is a hack for editing the scene files for the Panasonic HVX200 that means you can get any frame rate you want between 2fps and 50fps on PAL (2-60 on NTSC). I use the term ‘hack’ very lightly…To find out how go here for Barry Green’s run down. It’s super easy and it turns out that it is only because Panasonic testers didn’t have enough time to fully test every frame rate so weren’t allowed to give it to you as standard on the camera.
So with new frame rates in tow - we went to shoot some timelapses with the shutter on 350 d and see how the camera fairs at night time.
There’s a dodgy pan in there but this is just a test. You will see a lot more footage coming soon!

Panasonic HVX200 Footage - First day
So here’s how this goes, you get to see the first few clips we got to film with the new camera.
Lucky devils!
This is all just test footage, getting used to the p2 workflow and testing out 50fps. Not quite utilising the beautiful Iris yet as you’ll see from a few over exposed shots. None of the footage has been graded this is straight out of the FS100!
Not only that but it’s been youtube-ified. They claim to roll with HD but crunch the hell out of the poor little pixels. (Maybe time to move back to vimeo.)

COMING UP :
- 2fps teaser! Night time shooting here we come!
Without a dope beat to step to
So i know it’s been a couple of weeks since i’ve posted but let that sway you not.
It’s for good reasons!
GREAT in fact as I am now the proud owner of
The sexiest of all the cameras - the Panasonic HVX200. (in true manifestation style it is indeed the camera featured in my last post ‘Skateboarding in 60p’ - thankyou universe!)
So this means only the finest pixels from here on in. Variable frame rates up to 50fps and down to 2fps (see the following 2 posts for test footage). Records straight on to my Firestore FS100 which has 100 sweet GB of space. Completely removing the age old hassles of capturing DV tapes! Not only that but the footage has yet had a reason (other than Magic Bullet) to render!
Not only this but we have finally launched the long awaited Triple 3 website. So for all your corporate/promotional/web video needs head on over to www.triple-3.co.uk and bag yourself a deal! Currently running a 25% off special offer on all custom VFX! - only lasts another week though so get a quote in quick!
That’s all you’re getting for now but stay very tuned for the following :
Test footage from the HVX200.
A trip to the woods.
An interview/chat with film maker Garth Von Glehn.
Your first batch of the finest resources this side of the Thames…
Skateboarding in 60p…
Life never looked so crisp.
So good that it actually takes a while for your brain to get used to seeing everything in a shot.
I could go on for pages about what this does for skateboarding, evolution and general dopeness - but I’ll let Ty Evans’ work speak for itself - Check it!
The camera is so beast that when it gets hit, on that boardslide-cab, it pretty much throws it back at the guy… have some
Who thinks they know what camera it is? Leave a comment with your pot-shot @ set-up
