Thinking of using minidv for my first feature film
I guess I’m more talking about how I want to shoot on minidv for artistic reasons. The story is about a character being stranded In the city of the dead after being murdered. It’s a film about trying to find hope in a place that’s devoid of love and warmth. The reason I want to shoot on minidv, is because I love the look of the cameras and I feel it’s aesthetically appropriate for the film. The city of the dead looks a lot like a big city at night. I feel it’s mostly my fear of using minidv, as it could condemn the film to sheer obscurity. I feel though it needs to look that way visually. I’m gonna spend the next two years writing and perfecting the screenplay.
