not sure if its the same one but I’ve used a canon 50mm 1.8 on my t2i, it was a decent lens but absolute hell to pull focus with. I would also reccomend going the nikon prime route, I have a set of them and love em.

Hell, would buying the yashica or non L and a decent camera stabilizer just be my best bet? I already have a shoulder mount and have also been eyeing a steadicam merlin.

very impressive, although I didnt like the ending at all, you lost all of the great editing and camera movement you had once she started taking off the cords and it looked really amatuerish, like someone who tries to go out and shoot a music video but has no idea how to. everything up to that was fantastic though, REALLY impressive set design.

Also, I forgot to mention that this will be mostly for event videography and microbudget film

I really appreciate all the detailed responses you guys have given and its been a bit dissapointing. My end goal is directing film, and I was hoping working on ad spots would be a good way to get more practice behind a camera and make some money at the same time. I’ll see if there are any ad agencies in the area that could use freelance work but I won’t get my hopes up.

I guess to be more specific, I want the lights to be somewhat dim (its supposed to look like a crappy apartment) with plenty of shadows, but nothing should be completely dark, if that makes any sense. Sorry, one of the reasons I really want to start filming shorts myself is to be able to do a better job of putting what I want a scene to look like into words better.

I really only referenced shaun of the dead for the premise, I don’t want it to look anything like that. I really need help with both what kind of angles to use and how to light the scenes. Other than one shot, all of the scene will be indoors and at night, and I want the whole thing to have a really grungy and dirty look, and have a very urgent and panicked feel to it (I really like the idea of the whole thing having a green tint). I can’t really think of any particular movie or scene that has exactly what I’m going for, but I’ll post the closest one I can find. as far as what I have available to work with I can get: an HV20 with a 35mm adapter, wide angle lens, and fisheye lens, a light kit+some extra worklights, a steadicam, and I THINK that I can get a hold of a 7D if I wanted one. I can make some reflectors or anything I would need that doesnt require much money or technical skill.
