mubix Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 I can! What is your home address? :D I personally wouldn't give a guy who's avatar is a guy under a black sheet my home address, but, Darren, it's all you if you want to. Quote
Atari6502 Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 Ha Try getting that famous beach zoom from Jaws. :) Quote

Limin_Li Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 Yeah, I was a bit nervous while Wess was just being himself. Yeah, Wess is a cool guy. That Darren prick, phhhhhhhh please. If you are with me this far, I was kidding about the last part. Both Darren and Wess are very cool guys. Furthermore, Alli was a cool girl, she wasn't shy at all. :) Limin :) Quote
Darren Kitchen Posted June 22, 2006 Author Posted June 22, 2006 Ha Try getting that famous beach zoom from Jaws. :) You mean a trombone shot? It was first done in Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo then later got more recognition in Jaws. It's kinda cliche now. I believe we did one in a special feature on the DVD, just for the hell of it. Quote

Is that the shot where you walk backwards while zooming in? Quote
Darren Kitchen Posted June 22, 2006 Author Posted June 22, 2006 Yes. You can do it by tracking the camera back while zooming in, or tracking the camera forward while zooming out. It's a tricky shot to get and get right since you'll need a dolly or something similar to create smooth tracking motion. You'll also need a camera with either many zoom speeds or manual zoom. You'll also need to do it with manual focus and spin the focus ring at the same exact timing as your tracking and zooming. Autofocus normally gets confused when trying this. I'll see if I can find the clip from the special feature. Quote
Atari6502 Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 Oh that's what it's called. Funny, Wess even refers to it in the video. When he wasn't trying to get you to film his nutsack. :) Quote
kainchick Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 I think Hak5 needs a drunkin Skycam. i second that..then you should have a live stream playing and recording it.. so we can all watch it :D Quote
Darren Kitchen Posted June 22, 2006 Author Posted June 22, 2006 we used to do a live stream when we were filming. we might bring that back. Quote
Atari6502 Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 That would be cool. Jenn from OpenAlpha did that on her last studio shot segment. Quote
