Clubbed to Death (Canon Rebel 550D T2i *6 Minute 1st Test Shoot*) kit lens only -- 1920x1080 / 24P

Clubbed to Death (Canon Rebel 550D T2i *6 Minute 1st Test Shoot*) kit lens only -- 1920x1080 / 24P Tube. Duration : 6.30 Mins.


My first test shoot using the Canon Rebel 550D T2i, and first time trying to shoot video on an HDSLR. Shot some stuff over the weekend and early Monday morning in the Dallas area. Overall I learned a lot about the pros and cons of shooting video on an HDSLR. I think the footage will show the good and bad and what to look out for, so might be helpful to some. Everything is shot 1920x1080 at 24fps. I only used the kit lens (canon 18-55mm) it came with to see what it could do. I put a UV filter on the front to protect the lens. The first half is mostly all handheld. It was a clear day so I put the top down on my convertible. I sped up, slowed down, and reversed some footage and was mostly testing to see how it does with processing motion and tried to cover a wide range of shots to get familiar with the T2i camera. I used a mini targus tripod that when closed fit in my car's cup holder to steady some of the shots. I used it mostly while driving in the rain. A little color correction was done in CS4.
