The Polo Player

[Al Lougher]

Got my Scarlet last week and went out to shoot something to break the camera in. Luckily my friend is a Polo player so it made for somewhat of an interesting topic. Plus I think horses always look cool on film! Took about 4 hours to shoot and it was just me and no other crew. Shot entirely on the Canon 24L. It's not perfect, and if I had an extra arm I would have got some audio, but was a great learning experience with the new Scarlet.

nice job, you have good shooting/editing instincts.

Great job Al. Loved the end shot. What were you using for the slight dolly moves?

Thanks man.

Nice!!!

Thanks!

Thanks Andy. I used a home made slider. I really need to upgrade though as the Scarlet is a little too heavy for faster movement.

I am trying to figure out what is causing the lines in the bright sun in the image below (may be hard to see but noticeable when playing the video). This particular shot was heavily underexposed in post and the contrast bumped up. Does anyone know what causes this and how to get rid of it? Is it the sensor causing this effect?
