    Hello everybody.

    In need some proffesionel advice regarding camcorders and editing tools.
    I just finished working on a short film project, which i had lots of succes in. I used Panasonic’s PROLINE Camcorder “AG-DVX100B”, for editing i used Sony vegas 7. And pretty satisfied with my results but next time (in a couple of months im going to make my final examination project) I i was wondering since i have been using different softwares and camcorders what i should choose for proffesionel work.
    Should i continue using the AG-DVX100B or should i use my fathers “Sony HDR-HC1” or one of the schools big shoulder camcorders (can’t remember the exact model)? Second what editing software is most professionel, sony vegas, adobe premiere etc. ? And final for effects and what i call the “film look” what to use? after effects, magic bullet or anything else?

    I hope some of you can give me some answers to get the right equipment for my last and most serious project.

    btw Does anyone know any good speciel effect sites, about making your own blood, doll stuff. not cgi FX’s

    Hey!

    DVX-100 is a great little camera. You can achieve great result with it. Film look is more how it is filmed rather then with what. For fake blood just make a search for fake blood recipee.

    A great site for “budget” special effects is https://www.indymogul.com/

    Hope this helps!
