Creating cinema the DSLR way – with a digital SLR camera
The Bui Brothers tried out the Canon 7D for slow motion shots: filming at 60 fps (1080p) and then conforming it to 24 fps: a slowdown of 60%.
We took the 7D out and shot some fun footage at the West Hollywood Halloween Carnaval. The parts with audio were shot in 24p with the 7D and the slow motion parts were shot in 60p. We used cinema tools to conform the 60p videos to 24p, we could have slowed the 60p video down to 30p but wanted to shoot in 24p for coolness.
Here’s the result:
Syndicate, a visual effects studio from Sweden, has created a set-up with two Canon 7Ds glued to one another so that they can do 3D stereoscopic live capture with it.
A ready to rumble solution for 3D cinematic imagery! The dual 7D head is now calibrated and delivers footage that is very keen on the eyes. Again the small sized cameras and the low noise / high ISO is a solution ideal for Stereoscopic films. This is the first out of two 3D rigs syndicate will start to produce. It covers the above 120 mm in between eyes distance. Then next step is a mirror solution covering 0-120 mm eye distance. The clips bellow are all post rendered to be viewed with the old school cyan/red kind of 3D glasses. The two streams can off-course be rendered in any shape for any kind of dual projection i.e polarized or one screen per eye etc.
