Well it looks amazing! What kind of camera do you have? / Which is used to make this film? I was planning on picking up a Canon XL2 later this summer, if all goes well and successful in my studio, but I've only barely touched the surface of what is available.

For that one it was my little (http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/Canon-HV20-Camcorder-Review.htm) Canon HV 20. About the same sized sort of thing as yours from the other thread, but tape. ((http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=xh_P9dcIagE) the next one, which is a bit fancier and actually had to be lit, was done on a (http://www.videoguys.com.au/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=1390) Sony HVR Z1P. It's got some other name in non PAL territories).
I wouldn't bother with the XL2. They're good cameras but all the HD stuff around makes them basically obsolete. The HD equivalent is the XH A1, but being fairly current it probably has rather current prices too.

Well thanks for the tip, when I do decide to upgrade my camera, do you mind if I ask you a couple of questions? At the moment, I'm pretty good with film making, but I don't have the experience to get what's best for me. I'd appreciate it!

Do you have a website where you keep your work? Or just the videos on Youtube?

Yeah go for it. My knowledge isn't all that extensive, but I might be able to point you in the right direction.
I don't really have any specific showcase thing on the net. I might after the next few things get done. At the moment there's just those. And (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1731208#post1731208) this too I guess (which I haven't done anything on in aaages).

Thanks, I'll PM you whenever that day comes! Great work too! Hopefully I can gain the skill to keep up with quality work like yours! Some day, anyway...
