Hi! I hope I'm not too late for the sunset contest. While on Cape Cod last week, I was filming a sunset on the beach, when suddenly two people jumped into my shot. The man kneeled down and proposed. All this in front of my camera. https://vimeo.com/victorlazaro/sunsetproposal

[EDIT] - Shot on GH2 with 14-140 lens and @Driftwood Cluster v6 hack. Edited in Final Cut Pro X

Sorry, I don't understand how to embed a youtube video. Here is the link again

Sunset experiment witha Holga pinhole lens and Sedna.

@rajamalik thanks pal. Glad it gave you some emotions, it was worth doing it for that alone!

My first entry....

Pansonic GH-2, 1080/24p, Smooth or Cinema (I don't remember), Distagon 1,7/50 with adapter, Canis Mayoris "Night" patch,

@apriori thanks so much for the explanation on your lighting strategy. It was like a mini filmmakers workshop! I totally agree that shallow focus is played out and overrated. Your approach to compliment the natural lighting with modest lighting setups is enlightening and stunning to see in the stills. Creative indeed! Can't wait to see the finished piece! Will you have a trailer or snippet online?

@jupiter1 You win man,.all the best !!

here goes another one

Since Driftwood extended the final entry time I had a bit of time to clean up one of my two entries. I removed the original from my above but my other entry is still up there, so check it out ;) Anyways, I think most would agree this is a bit better than the other one I had, and definitely a bit closer to my original vision. First video is 1080p the second is 720p, for folks like me without a proper 1080p monitor. If I watch the 1080 vimeo version on my monitor is looks very blocky but the 720p version looks good. Original files are a whole other world of course. Shot using Sedna AQ1 A max detail in Cine mode set at 0-0-0-0 with a Marumi Neo ND 8 filter on a panasonic 14-42 kit lens.

1080p

Shot with Canis Majoris Day PM Lenses: Nikon Nikor 28mm f2 AIS, Rokinon 35mm F1.4, lumix 14mm F2 with wide converter attached to it, Carl Zeiss planar 85mm F1.4 Genus ND filter. Camera setting: All ISO 160, WB Sun, smoooth -2, -2, -2, -2 mostly used 1/50th, shutter speed.

Mysteron -2,+2,-2,-2 Using 1/40th on Stock Lens, Sigma Zoom Lens 3.5 and Nikon 50mm 1.8. Filmed in Miami, FL.

For specific questions on any technicalities, I don't mind if you ask.

The one with the highest agregate score from all votes will be judged the winner. Get your last minute entries in. :-)
