I’ve confessed before that apart from Photography, I have a keen interest in Cinematography too. Offcourse, I’m a photographer first but have a urge to learn about the wonderful world of Video/Film-Making & create good short films. Since investing in an video camera is not a budget solution, I would be learning to make videos on DSLR camera’s which offer more than decent quality. For time-being, I don’t have a DSLR but I always thought of making a short film just to make myself happy & improve on my filming skills. Left with no option but my Canon Powershot SX100 IS still camera, I decided to film a short film on it.
I know, you would be laughing off & its perfectly acceptable as I’m going to get nowhere with the measly 640*480 @ 30fps offered by my compact camera. Still for the sake of learning & my personal happiness, I’ve created a short video. This is not going to be the next blockbuster for sure but it might be the first step of making a blockbuster somewhere in the future.
The video was shot handheld without a tripod in a duration of about one hour at around midnight. The video depicts the life on Mumbai streets at around midnight. Due to low light, the video is grainy & I purposely did not remove the noise during processing as I wanted to keep the normal look. Removing it would have also meant loss of details on such at tiny frame. I’ll admit, I’m new to video editing & capturing, so you may find many errors in the footage. Its a steep learning curve for me. Kindly give your comments, so I can improve on my future video work.
Nice video Gaurav!! Looks like an art movie! The music blends in nicely!! My fav part is those light bokehs of distant lights and moving car. Good work!!
