    • Controlling a Canon DSLR with an Android Tablet - it's possible, thanks to chainfire's Android App "DSLR Controller".

      Monitoring a Canon DSLR on set with an Android Tablet; HD on-camera with Peaking for $215: “DSLR Controller” in a Real-Life film production environment.

      Posted on November 11, 2012 | 13 Comments
      Judging focus on the back display of a DSLR can be difficult to impossible. Clunky on-board monitors that are mounted on the flash shoe can cause unwanted wiggle, instability and inertia in high-speed environments. There is a new solution now, with a DIY rig: An Android Application named "DSLR Controller" that lets you control the camera via a USB connection. Adding to that, I devised a way to rig the tablet to the camera with minimal inertia and wiggle, as well as an appropriate $2 sunshade for the 7" tablet that displays my camera image in HD with peaking functionalities and 2.35:1 overlay. Let me take you on a tour through this relatively new technology...

Now you've got a $60.000 rig on the back of a bicycle...!

      TERMINATED – Short Film by Tobias Deml

      Posted on June 19, 2012 | No Comments
      "TERMINATED" is finally finished, published, and ready to watch. It's my first serious film, my first "big" production - an experimental short film that is partially running backwards, employs meaning between the lines and was shot on two December days in 2010. We were about 25-30 people that were working on the film, had permits for some things, and totally no permits for other, dangerous parts of the film. It's a complete passion project, and I hope you enjoy watching it. This blog post marks the official release of the film!

      For the beginning filmmaker, autodidact, student filmmaker, advanced director, producer, cinematographer, gaffer, writer, editor, sounddesigner, colorist or VFX artist - this list will provide an overview of filmmaking by sourcing from related knowledge that is freely available online. It should supplement existing knowledge, provide a one-stop-shop for tutorials, basic paperwork and catalogs, and make the learning aspects of film making a bit easier. Kind of like a course outline for a class, but all online, all free, and without a teacher or rules.

        13 April 2011 1:58 AM | 3 Comments

        Der erste Drehtag von Terminated beginnt im Morgengrauen. Etwa 30 Leute sind heute am Set, und einige unbekannte Faktoren müssen bewältigt werden: Eine unerlaubte gefilmte Busfahrt, ein unerlaubter Dreh an einer Busstation mit komplexer Handlung, ein quer durch den Verkehr geworfener Fussball und eine 3-minütige 1-shot-Szene, bei der ein Mann gefeuert wird und zu weinen beginnt. So viele Unbekannten für ein Team von Studenten, die nur ein paar Filme am Buckel haben - das bedeutet: You gotta step your game up. Und genau das haben wir vor.
