    The first example of directing actors showed clips from movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona by Woody Allen, who is famous for just casting the right actor for the role and saying almost nothing to them before or during the shooting. And he gets amazing performances from the performers!

    Great video. Related to checklists and avoiding decision overload are routines; something that really works for me is keeping a consistent kit list and setup process for similar shoots and events, even if that means bringing slightly more kit. The more you drill the same packing routine, setup and derig, the faster you get and the more you can do on autopilot. I might bring something I only need 85% of the time, but doing it as part of a routine is still faster and less mentally taxing than trying to figure out whether I'll need it or not.

    Unfortunately, he falls into the trap A lot writers do thinking that if you follow structure, your film will be like every other film - that’s like saying if you’re a human with a head, two arms, a spine and two legs that you’re like every other human. Back to the Future, Star Wars, Jaws and the Matrix all follow a similar save-the-cat structure but they are completely different films. Without structure your film is less likely to be genius and more likely to just be a mess. Good structure is not something the audience should even be aware of like background music it creates the magic but is transparent to everyone but professionals.

    I'm not so sure yet, every camera has it's own artefacts. Looks like theres denoising artefacts on Canon's promo short film video at 1.25 and 1.28. fairly terrible on the blue light...That doesnt seem to happen on Burano. I've included their promo footage here from Canon USA.... has anyone tested this yet? ua-cam.com/video/cyeAf5SFExg/v-deo.html Also note that it's missing IBIS, so no handheld with prime or vintage lenses without a gimbal. Focus breathing correction is also missing...12bit raw - These days 13-16bit compressed raw is becoming the norm. But great to see triple ISO. Keep it competitive Canon!

    downgrade from C500 Mark 2? I had that camera, it's amazing but this looks to be on par if not better... I see a lot of guys defending the c500 that own them, it feels like the guys defending buying a Burano, I miss my c500 Mark2, this has got me tempted to jump back to Canon, I definitely wouldn't feel like I'm missing anything buying a C400 over a C500 Mark 2..

      I used to think FF was stupid, still do to a point, I dislike the FOV compared to S35 for one thing. The heavier, more expensive lenses for another. BUT , I did recently buy an FX6 for a particular client who has repeating weekly gig that they shoot on two other Sony cameras so I kind of had to buy a Sony for this client. It's shot in a theater with theatrical lighting which as many of you have experienced, translates to pretty low lighting levels for video shooting. It is a live streamed gig so shooting Slog 3 with it's base ISOs of 800/12,800 isn't possible but the FX6 in S-Cinetone still has base ISOs of 320 and 5000. At ISO 5,000, our TD still is amazed by how good the image looks. I own three Canons and they look decent at ISO 2500 but the Sony is impressive at ISO 5000. I still don't like the FOV, but for this gig, where I don't get to light it and I have to work with whatever the LD is putting out, the FX6 has been an effective tool, client loves how good the images look at such a high ISO. I'm still not a fan of Sony and I think this FX6 is crappiest built pro camera I have ever owned but for this one gig, it serves its purpose well because of the FF, high base ISO and really good AF. It's handheld (well, Easy Rig) with me constantly moving and switching off subjects who are also moving so the AF is kind of a necessity even though I prefer manual focus mostly. The takeaway is, even if you aren't a fan of a certain camera or manufacturer, sometimes, it's still the right tool to use. I shot the first few episodes with one of my Canons and the client did not like the footage, so I rented the FX6 a couple of times and they loved it so I had to buy it. This gig will have the FX6 paid for in about two more months of shoots and then it will generate profit/income for me each week and I already used it for a gig for Mazda North America that paid a good chunk of it off too. Corporate clients really love Sony.

I don’t dislike FF at all. But I do believe that sometimes some people can overlook great systems and image quality simply because of sensor size. But I do completely understand you point and it’s valid.
