Hi!

I'm going to make an intro video to a live comedy show with sketches, songs and stunts. Duration of final product is everywhere between 1-10 minutes, depending on the content.

The video is supposed to be used to present all the actors (25 in total) with names. Any tips for a way to present them in a humorous way or in maybe in a super serious way with something random as a contrast?

I'm open for all the ideas you got, everything ranging from video angles, cuts, etc. to the content in the video.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I'm completely new to shooting raw, and I've been experimenting with grading in post for a while now. It did not take a lot of time before I realized that I really do not know anything about color correcting/grading. I've been looking around for tutorials to DaVinci Resolve and I've stumbled upon some great tutorials (for example the ones by user vickersdc). I'm also using the transform LUTs by Cinelog as well.
What I'm looking for are some good tutorials that captures the basic of color correction and also grading. (when it comes to grading I'm looking for a dynamic and neutral grade, so not the blockbuster blue-ish look)

I've also discovered these tutorials http://www.colorgradingcentral.com/membership-info but they are really expensive and I've not managed to come up with a reason to justify spending $75 on tutorials. Are they worth it, or are there other cheaper or free alternatives out there?

Hi!

A couple of months ago I purchased a used 5D mark III camera, and I'm pretty sure this camera has had ML before because startup-time is 2 seconds. When I bought it FW 1.1.3 was installed, and no magic lantern. I updated the firmware to 1.2.3 and everything is working fine.

My question is if there should be anything that I should put into consideration before installing ML (could there be some bootflags or anything from the previous install that could mess things up, or am I good to go? )
