Camera's

Our camera's may look very small and some what out of place for a video company but don't let the look of these camera's fool you. The Canon 7D can do more that just the average camera and has found it was into several Hollywood movies and TV shows. We have the ability to shoot in full 1080, 720, and SD formats. The 7D can also shoot in 24, 30, 60 frames per sec. so we can get whatever look you want. The benefit to being able to shoot with a DSLR camera is that fact it's small and compact but takes full advantage of all the awesome features SLR photography cameras have. Once we pack on all of the extra gear to theses camera's they wont even look close to a normal DSLR camera. The fact of the matter is using this set up helps you out by giving the best video on the market at a way cheaper cost.

Audio

To compliment our camera's, we've set them up to record audio with an external audio recorder called the Zoom H4n. Just like the 7D; don't let the look of these little devices fool you. We can hook up any type of mic. input to these and use Phantom powered mics. as well. We can also take full advantage of the onboard mics and patch it directly into the 7D for superior audio. One of the best parts about these recorders is they can record 4 different channels separately for more precise control in the editing process.

Green Screen

We carry a 10x11 portable green screen for non-studio shooting as well as off-site studio setup. Plus we provide all the lighting and markers used for motion tracking. This allows us to go anywhere and create amazing things. We use a standard 3 point lighting system and record with Adobe's Onlocation to make sure we get the sharpest and cleanest image possible.

Software

We use a non-linear editing station with Adobe Production Suite CS3 which includes Premiere Pro, After Effects, Encore, OnLocation, Sound Booth, Flash, Photoshop, and Illustrator programs. We also use Red Giant Plug-Ins such as Particular, Form.

Our specialty is highly advance motion graphic with the use of After Effects. This is the heart and soul of what we love to do! But we do most of our timeline editing in Premiere Pro. Then when the project is finished we can convert it to flash for the web or create a custom DVD with all the fancy gadgets on it.
