Looks like a great location to film eagles and you captured alot of nice sequences.Iam curious if you had a separate sound recorder, if it was connected to the camera or if sound was done in post?
A little bit of everything you mentioned. We are working to develop a sound library for the videos, use internal recorded sound, and we do add some ambient sounds in certain areas.
Right on Eric -I've been waiting for this! We only see the eagles up in trees down here haha (not really but mostly it seems) so it's exciting to see them at eye level. Beautiful stuff. Excellent eagle audio and great job with the pans and catching them while flying; I need a better tripod. Are the mottled ones that don't have white heads juveniles? Were there other photographers out there enjoying the cold? You Alaskans have your own defition for a beautiful morning but yeah, it really is. It just looks so cold and you were basically standing there in windbreaker :) Neat to see the bear and other birds and the ways they were interacting too.
We will address this and the entire video in more detail in Episode 8 of the podcast but thanks for the comments. You do learn to deal with the cold but more importantly what gear to use that allows you to stay comfortable. Eagles reach their "definitive plumage" by 5 1/2 years with the clean white head/tail and solid yellow bill but it's a progressive process so ages can be assumed based on that progression. Thanks for the kind words -Eric
Thanks for video. I'm little confused why you overexpose so much? Highlights are almost crashed. According to Sony's own white papers settings for S-Log3 are: white 90% (100% IRE) - 61% and mid grey 41%. But on your waveform (at 21:40) I saw much higher settings. It looks like you leave zebras from s709 or Cinetone and expose for Slog3. Or maybe I'm wrong?
Thanks for the comment. Shooting a black subject in white snow has it's own issues to deal with but added to that I also needed sound and footage of myself meaning things were never going to be perfect especially with my first solo piece. While you are technically not wrong, we will discuss this along with other components of the video in episode 8 of the podcast so stay tuned. These conversations will lead us all towards a better end result so thanks for your input. -Eric
