    nice tip about rotating from behind the lens rather than the back of the camera, will try and do that more!

    because vx's produce what most, including myself, think is the best look for skating. It's the perfect camera, and the mk1 is the widest and most popular fisheye out there.

  • @ferglovesguitar
    @ferglovesguitar 12 років тому

    Because it captures more than your eye can see, which is great for getting close, whilst still capturing the skater, board, and a lot of the surroundings.

  • @penhdog2207
    @penhdog2207 7 років тому +1

    Cool. Came here after stumbling across the documentary DIG! The filmmaker used a lot of fish eye lenses and a VX1000.

    • @twizzy4076
      @twizzy4076 5 років тому

      i also looked at that but he isnt that close to the skater it just look like it bcs its filmed from a little behind the filmer

  • @lovestospugification

  • @TechnicalMinecraft
    @TechnicalMinecraft 13 років тому

    If you are looking to film skateboarding I would suggest a GoPro camera. It's fairly cheap and you get a lot of stuff in the frame (because it's a fisheye), which is good for skateboarding. But if you are planning to film when it's dark you shouldn't go for a GoPro because they suck in low-light, but when it's a sunny day or if you have a lot of lighting the footage looks great :)

  • @moldyrefrigerator
    @moldyrefrigerator 12 років тому

    You probably want to go with a DSLR. Canon and Nikon both make great cameras, but Canon's really shine over the Nikons when it comes to videos which is what we use them for. The Rebel T2i with Opteka fisheye is a popular choice

  • @theskatebort
    @theskatebort 9 років тому +7

    Mike Manzoori is a genius. I just uploaded a video called 4 tips for filming lines with a fisheye that goes really well with this video.

  • @OllieHSmith
    @OllieHSmith 13 років тому +1

    a VX1 tutorial would be great eg settings etc. for certain lightings. i personally understand how to use them through trial and error but it took me a while to get to grips with it when i first got it

  • @cityrolla4000
    @cityrolla4000 13 років тому

    great! now i love those videos again. That´s general in my opinion and it helps EVERBODY!!

  • @InvisionThat
    @InvisionThat 12 років тому +1

    This literally just changed the way I think about filming.

  • @seltzerislife
    @seltzerislife 12 років тому

    Having an editing program like Final Cut that shows the audio signatures of the clips and the song really helps.

  • @RELYTTALHCS

  • @joshglanz
    @joshglanz 12 років тому

    Because you get alot more of the shot, like the suroundings, plus the skater, and alot more reasons. Personally, I think it looks really cool also

  • @cjlee8829

  • @ferglovesguitar
    @ferglovesguitar 12 років тому +1

  • @zegers84

    Yes, that's what I need, more stable footage! Good lesson.

  • @kdog323
    @kdog323 12 років тому

    Hey when are you guys going to do the comparison video between a fisheye on a HD camera and one on a SD camera like the VX. I would imagine it would have alot to do with aspect ratio?

    Hi Mike,
    I was wondering if you can recommend a decent LED light, mic, handle, and monitor?

    Thanks man! I love your video series

  • @LykkePilleMedia
    @LykkePilleMedia 12 років тому +1

    Yes i know this, but to me HD is alot more pleasing for the eye. You can also be alot more creative with HD imo. HD also looks alot more proffesinal.
