My Second DSLR Movie : For you..

For You from Shashi Bhushan Singh on Vimeo.

After being excited with the result of "The scent"  and learning about shutter speed and aperture from various online blogs and resources, I was ready to take on the second short film. Like the first time, K.Ramesh came up wit a very sweet idea of a small short film depicting human emotions. He named it - For you. My art teacher Marimuthu Anna and a student Priya - were soon convinced to act in the movie.

This time we needed a bouquet, a graveyard. We immediately rushed to nearby tree of "flame of fire" (Palaash in hindi) and got some flowers. (We only took as much we needed to avoid wastage of natural resources and beautiful flowers  ! ) We made a holy cross with two sticks and found an isolated land near our campus to be used as graveyard. ( A puppy just happen to come as a surprise guest in one of the shot :-) )

This time, I used manual exposure for first time and reduced the resolution to HD, increased ISO to 800. Only later I realized that I did not use the best settings. Some of the footage was too grainy, I should have used lesser ISO.

I used Cyberlink Power Director trial version for edit. The final product is presented above. Your feedbacks/comments/complaints will help me improve. Thanks.
