Finally got around to getting some of our HVX200 clips shot on P2. I have 4 raw clips that my friend Barlow and I shot with Panasonic's HVX200 at DVexpo last week.* What I have are three 720P 24 and one 1080P 24 raw clips.** We shot these on my 4gig p2 card and then brought them into a powerbook laptop via the PCMCIA slot into Final Cut Pro.
BTW- Import to FCP was so easy that it was awesome. I have no problem with tape, but the P2 worked flawlessly with FCP. Thumbs Up!
The Footage is nothing fancy at all.* It's convention show floor footage on sticks with pretty bland lighting you get at any show. It's more like If I were shooting a documentary ( ala Michael Moore- frontline etc ) or run & gun film like BlairWitch etc; that's what these show conditions would resemble simply non controlled environments that we would face for that type of filmmaking or cinema verite** style. This is real world filming, not studio filmmaking with sets and a lighting to make perfect pretty looking images.
This footage is not like the awesome material that Barry Green,Jarred Land, Evin Grant etc filmed. Nor is it like the awesome footage that Illya Friedman's production shot that was filmed out and screened at Laser Pacific.
It is however raw P2 clips straight from the camera to FCP. There just 720/24 and 1080/24 mode footage that people can play with and look at... Enjoy!
