What are some good key terms in finding the audios you used for the suspense
Thank you for the detailed insight.
How does this lens handle the issue with center focus? Will it track the subject if they adjust themselves positionally in the frame?
THE KINGGGG!!!
🙏🏾🙏🏾😅
Did you retire your faithful C100 M2?
😅😅 No sir, all this are rentals
@@AfricanFilmmakerI use a FX7 and FX6 at work- very fine cameras (even the 10-year old FX7). I’m still a Canon man myself but so many good choices on market now
good job. keep the momentum.
very nice.
Loving your channel bro ❤ bless
Thanks bro!
Oh, it's so beautiful. Nice work, man 👏 Im from SA, so keep representing
Thanks brother 🥂
this is cool
J'ai le osmo pocket 2 mais je sais pas faire de film comme toi !
THE KING HAS RETURNED 🗣️
😂😂😂 I find it very funny when you say King! I appreciate your energy 🙏🏾🙌🙌
Tell your boom mic operator to get that closer or put it on a stand!!
Yah luckily I miked him as well!
@@AfricanFilmmaker sorry to harass your assistant but I was a sound guy for years and the closer the shotgun to your subject the more pristine the audio.
@@Sutterjack I agree with you! This is my intern and this was first time to see the boom mic! 😅😅
Yes - always have a UV or Skylight filter on. Sigma makes some great glass. The 18-35 f1.8 is nice lens for the super 35 sensor - I own one.
Its an amazing lens!
Did you take the plunge and upgrade brother? Fine camera - I use one of these at my work, but I've stayed foolishly loyal to canon with my personal C70.
No brother, this was gig and reluctantly I had to go with Sony, 😅 video coming up soon!
I'm also a c100 mk ii owner...Makes me happy to still see people using it for narrative filmmaking !! Can't wait to see it
Its still an amazing Camera for me 💪🏾👌🏾
I used it too in my work, thanks for sharing your experience. See ya ;-)
Great to hear!🙏🏾
I'm very interested by your job, i'm going to follow you !
Awesome, thank you!🙏🏾
Good job ! i love the color grading. i bought a c100 mk2 there is 3 weeks ago and by your movie, you proved i did a good choice !
You made the best decision brother !!
@@AfricanFilmmaker thanx ! where are you in Africa ? I leave in France and in Tunisia .
@@mehdikhadouj8935 I live in Spain and Tanzania.
@@AfricanFilmmaker wowww in Spain ? Great ! I really love this country. i produced a short film near Saragossa. I'm happy to follow you.
@@mehdikhadouj8935 Thanks my brother, I live in Tarragona, end of this year I will come to France to film something, lets get in touch, Plz Dm me on instagram @henrymwakajumba
Dope! I am considering getting one of these and you just sold me with this video!
Glad you liked it,can’t wait to see your magic with it!
Great videos!
Thanks!
I like it. Fantastic. I did a similar thing on my M2 called "London Christmas Lights 2016" on my UA-cam channel. Hope you still got the camera. I'm still using it to this day. It has a clean and uncluttered image that I've not been able to create on any newer cameras costing four times as much!
I still use it and struggle to let it go! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Wow! Well done, sir! Great execution with the limited time you had. It felt like a scene from a film or a series. My favorite was the last shower scene; it was ominous and intriguing. The lighting and sound design would be perfect for short horror stories. Keep working, brother. You have reignited my motivation to create films. It's great to see more African filmmakers emerging, which helps diversify storytelling from various perspectives and angles. Great work! I wish you great success in your future endeavours.
Thanks so much, this is are very powerful and truly you inspired me, So thanks so much again for watching and writing this! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@AfricanFilmmaker of course keep working brother!
This is awesome. I am using my pocket 2 for several documentary projects.
Its very useful little camera!
Its very useful little camera!
Bravo! Good photography!
Thanks 🙏🏾
I started using a Canon EOS 750D, which was terrific, even with the cheap Canon 50mm lens. If the C100mkII is better, I'll be blown away.
Its the best camera for the price! especially in the saturated camera market of now days.
@@AfricanFilmmaker I'm about to get my c100 from Facebook Marketplace today. I found your video while looking for reviews. Thanks. I subscribed also ✊🏽
@@TheTillmanSneakerReview Thanks brother, go make magic with it!
I have been making films for about 15 years now. I have learned a lot from youtube. I recently purchased a Canon C100 mk I but I love your channel, the intelligent nature and approach you have with filmmaking, and your positive passion for filmmaking. Keep up the good work man! Your videos still teach me a lot and give me ideas. I am grateful for your content!
Thansk so much brother, I really appreciate your kind words and support.You gave me more energy to keep making!
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
👍🏾👍🏾Instant Subscribe, my Good Brother!! I still have a BMPCC Original in my kit, but really love all their cameras. Thanks for the Excellent Review. Best Wishes to you, Bro.
Thanks brother👏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Very good!
Thank youu!!
This was inspiring ! Thank you for the content ! Bless up !!!
Thanks so much!
Keep up the great work ! Inspiring to get things done ! #respect
Thanks brother I appreciate that! 🙏🏾
Well done. Wow.
Thanks brother!
I'm looking at a Carl Zeiss Vintage lens. Those look legit. I've got a question. How long do you reckon I can film on a 256gb memory card on the C100Mkii? Awesome video
Thanks Man!, Waw I have 64 GB Cards and I can film all day, I mean all day! I have filmed some live events and the only thing I changed was the battery, so with 256 gb it will take forever, the files are very small even shooting in cinema mode.
Thank you so much @@AfricanFilmmaker I think that even allows me to downsize the cards I wanna get for it. I had no idea it was that efficient.
@@RumbaniNdhlovu Anytime bro, Absolutely 64 is very enough if you can have 2 your done.
@@AfricanFilmmaker This definitely helps alot.
great bro seems awesome! only one thing.. how come that there is so much jitter?
On the short film? Or on this video? Can you point with time code maybe I didn’t notice
THE KING HAS RETURNED!!!
I appreciate that!🙏
Looks great!
Thanks
Great job. What lens was used for the short?
Mostly sigma 18-35 Ef
Thanks for the videos and tips you upload, Im learning a lot from your work. I aspire to do short films myself. having both C100 ii and DJI RS 2 pro. I must say the combination is very heavy.
Thanks brother! For sure the camera is very heavy probably cheep stead cam can work better as well!
It kinda makes sense they dropped the NDs because if that would have made it 1k more, they'd be competing with cameras that have better codecs, global shutter & autofocus. Their selling point has aways been affordability. It honestly doesn't seem that expensive to rig - 300 sdi monitor, 60 sideplate, 100 battery, 200 adapter with Drop-In filter. C70 is a better camera in every way lol, but if saving a couple thousand allows for budget for set design, lighting, talent, lens rental, etc. then I would definitely go that route.
That make sense! Thanks so much, I have the matte box for 4X4 filters soo that is the plus for me.But I like your point more on saving some cash for lights and Talents for independent filmmakers like me Pricing is something to consider. Thanks for your time!
Great film. Did you adr the dialogue in a studio. Or was it scratch audio from set?
No sir I didn't ADR its straight from set!
@@AfricanFilmmaker ok thanks. What kind of mic 🎤 did you attach to your camera. Or are we hearing the internal mic?
@@Jason92881 its was a boom mic with Sennheiser mk416, check the behund the scene video and Part 2 coming next week.
Beautiful art!
Thanks 🙏🏾
Hi mate, does sigma 18-35mm have autoface detect? Thanks
Yes it does and its very good, but depend with the camera you gonna use with!
@@AfricanFilmmaker How about paired with canon c100 ii? Thanks for the reply
@@prince_artlot Its good but the subject gas to be in the central of the frame as you may know the c100 mk ii does not have subject or eye tracking just normal out focus.It works well especially for stead shots.
Thanks mate. Really appreciate the reply
@@prince_artlot Anytime mate!
Please, PLEASE clean the front element of your lens
Noted Thanks, but cleaning the lens every time will deteriorate the coating, when it doest bother my image I normally leave it like this.
So glad i found this page as an aspiring film maker.
Thanks brother and we’ll come 🙏🏾🙏🏾
No dilemma. It is a pocket 6k in a box. No better or worse.
Make sense also 😅😅
They dropped the ND filter when the moved from EF mount to L mount because the flange distance is much less with L mount leaving less room for ND filters. Now they do make an EF box model but it probably was not economical to engineer ND filters just for this model since the might have had to modify the body as well.
Yaah!, I’m sure they had to make this tough decision to save the cost as well, and also its open business possibilities for them to make another pyxis pro with ND’s. but what is your thoughts on the camera?
It was also probably pricing strategy as well, because it puts it right under the cost of all other full frame cinemas with similar specs such as dual iso, exposure tools (false colors, shutter angle, etc.), open gate, and actual DR not what these companies claim lol
Enjoying your content. Great video. I’m using the bmpcc6k G2 at the moment. Not sure if I will update to the Pyxsis or not, but it is an amazing camera either way. I also only make movies. I have no interest in filming weddings or corporate videos.
The 6K G2 has internal ND’s is isn’t?, its trues the pyxis is amazing in many ways, but if you shoot movies and you have small crew at the some time your used to internal ND, the Piyxis leave you confused.
I was looking forward to the Pyxis, but by the time you configure the thing it's competing with the C70 and FX6. Not to mention it's VERY Blackmagic ... no ND, only 1 XLR (I know it's made for filmmakers, but still) can't move the monitor, etc, etc.
The ND is the most annoying thing for me, I would rather have it in super 35 2K than ND’s.
Hello my friend, did you take a look at the Lumix S5IIx? If you are interested in the C70, the Lumix S5IIx can be a good alternative. It is more recent, less heavy and cheaper ... It is also a full frame, 6K, with an excellent dynamic rage. For less than $ 100, you can add an LMOUNT adapter to fix the optics you already have. I have been working for several years with a Canon C100MII and a Lumix S5 (I) of which I am very happy. I also had the opportunity to work with the latest version; The S5IIx and I found it great! This is true, there are no internal ND filters. And I have to add a variable ND at the front. But its lightness and its excellent stabilizer changes me from the C100 and its weight and size. I can even use it with a gimbal. I think this is the next camera that I will buy, because with my 55 years old, I am more and more interested in light and unchanging equipment. Especially since like you, I often work with a reduced team and sometimes even, all alone. In addition, I will wait for Black Friday to buy it, because I noticed that for 4 years, Panasonic has been lowering the price of its cameras since that date, until the beginning of December. For short films, it is perfect. For feature film, I don't know. In fact no one has tried yet. The purists will say that it is an outrage to use such a small camera for a movie or television film. But I think that the same purists too will say that it is an outrage to use a C100 MII for cinema, but you did it! And what a wonderful result! Your short films are splendid too. You can be proud of that. So yes, I think it will not be a difficulty for you to make a feature film with this "little" camera. I take this opportunity to put the link of 2 analyzes on UA-cam. The 1st comes from a filmmaker who knows the C100 well and who today talks about the pyxis. ua-cam.com/video/T_Wvynh4Raw/v-deo.html The second is a comparison between the C70 and the S5IIx. ua-cam.com/video/ACMDueNwQEU/v-deo.html I'm sorry to strengthen your doubts while you ask yourself questions about 2 cameras, but I'm talking about my choice. Keep us aware of your decisions and continue your reports. They are great and it's always a pleasure to look at them and your work.
Thanks for the video and the work that went into it. I have never owned a cinema camera. My impressions may be completely wrong. I have a Canon M50 and am only ready to think intensively about professional film projects with a Canon C100. No R5, no C70, but perhaps I would prefer a BlackMagic Camera PYXIS 6K. Rather not. I like the C cameras, except for the C70. C70 footage reminds me of DJI footage. It looks cinematic, has great dynamics and appears filmic enough, but it doesn't have the contrasts of the Cinema Line from the C100 onwards, it doesn't have the intense colors, it doesn't have the plasticity. I also noticed this a lot in this video at 2:35: ua-cam.com/video/CgFtc0fX_ko/v-deo.html I always think: I'll record something just once. Has anyone seen THX 1138? What top quality during this time and to this day! Of course you put all your effort into a timeless film. That's why I rarely think about seriously shooting a film with my M50. I'll practice a little with it for real filming at some point, maybe. I want very high quality when I go to a set and record something in a moment that will be viewed later. I don't want to be limited by camera quality. I consciously talk about the quality, not the resolution or dynamics. I have ideas that come to life with the appropriate camera. Feelings must be able to arise. It shouldn't just be the impression that a film is playing. It has to be the fantastic. No, I think the shots from a Canon C100 are much better than those from a C70. Maybe it's not the dynamics, but the overall impression and the overall effect is so optimal, this organic, this sharpness in the right place together with the right contrasts and colors (at 2:35 of the video linked here, please pay attention to the two signs with the "Pro" label, and the deep blue color of the punching bag, and the structures in the red/white part of the punching bag). This is all very special with these “C” cameras from the C100 onwards. I would rather think about a gimbal that carries a C100. Even if it's not that convenient. But then at least the images are in the right place. These are just impressions from a non-professional. I hope it can still be helpful.
Thanks so much for this deep insight, I must say you have a very good eye. Its true I have seen tones of C70 videos and I have noticed that the footage doesn't have much deep contract like the C100 has, I compare most of the footage of C300 with the C100 I think because its the some sensor.I have watched the video you shared the time code and the guy explain it very well. Thanks again for taking your time to watch and writing this beautiful text.
