HVX: "Corrado" Teaser Footage

The making of "Corrado" is a project we have been following, particularly since a first-time feature producer began to document his plans and experience as he went in this FORUM THREAD at DVXuser. The thread makes for great reading, as the process is described in which talent such as Tom Sizemore and Frank Stallone were secured, as well as much of the experience from script to screen.

The cameras have been rolling and some teaser footage from "Corrado" is now available below. It is particularly relevant to our purposes as the project was compiled with a Panasonic HVX + depth of field adapter combination.

Enjoy the footage...

HVX: "Corrado" Production Blog

I have, on more than one occasion, mentioned things of interest happening at DVXUSER, a forum I consider to be one of the better discussion communities for filmmaking. In this case, though it has been around for a while, I am not sure that everyone is familiar with the production blog for an independent feature called Corrado, written and directed by Adamo Cultraro.

The discussion encompasses his equipment list (which is based around a Panasonic HVX and Letus Extreme adapter), as well as the process he went through marketing the script, and ultimately signing name talent including Tom Sizemore (Heat, Saving Private Ryan).

So anyway, I wanted to make you guys aware of this FORUM THREAD so that you can glance through it and hopefully glean some useful information from the process discussed.

As the thread continues, it does degenerate a bit into some off-topic discussions and bickering. But it's not too difficult to stay on course and separate the wheat from the chaff as you read.
