  • The Music Box - Scene Recreation - Comparing the HVX-200 vs URSA Mini 4.6K

    The Music Box - Scene Recreation - Comparing the HVX-200 vs URSA Mini 4.6K

    I decided to try something. About a decade ago in 2007 I shot a short film called "The Music Box" and was very pleased with how it came out. It was shot on the Panasonic HVX-200 with a Lens Adapter and a 50mm lens. Now I have the Blackmagic URSA Mini 4.6K. I wanted to see how much better the project would look had I shot with the URSA.

    Part of this is due to my desire to remake the short film. Thus, I will be using the scene recreation as a jumping off point to help make this happen.

    This was part of the test footage I shot earlier this year with the Blackmagic URSA Mini 4.6K Beta Unit. The footage came out great, however I never released it because I couldn't find a satisfactory way to edit it all together. This is a short edit of the footage.
