Let me know what you think of our new intro.
I’ll start with this 5 second clip of the end result and you can check out the tutorial and commentary below that:
After sitting in the office mesmerized by Brad’s old Kodak Super 8mm camera (and it spawning discussion of JJ Abrams latest endeavors), I eventually I got the idea to recreate the old camera’s viewfinder look in Final Cut Pro (FCP) because I just thought it looked awesome using some footage I already had of Matt Danner. Since I took the time to make it, I figured I would share how I did it with the world so that you too can recreate this look without having to spend forever tinkering with it yourself. If you find a use for it and work it into a clip I would love to see how you’ve used it! – so put a link in the comments if you ever do!
(I included the 8mm clip from Video Copilot in the .zip file)

Everything I’ve seen from people who are attending/have attended the Vancouver Film School Foundation has been intriguing. I told you yesterday that I’d feature another Ryan Smith video today so here you have it. My friend, Brad Ulrich, pointed out to me when I showed this to him yesterday that it has some semblance of this piece and I definitely agree that there is some inspiration drawn from it.
Digging the old billboards in this one a ton.
