​INFORMATION & USES:

  • Main Abilities: Full HD Photography / Full HD Videography, Creative manual setting modes, RAW & JPEG photo formats
  • Other Abilities: In camera editing
  • Number Available to Us: 1 - 2 depending on date and amount of prior notice​
  • Our Uses for the Canon 60D: Primary photography camera, secondary video camera, movie production
  • Production Capability: Full Professional*
The Canon 60D is a highly versatile, professional quality, HD camera. This is well a balanced camera in all aspects across the board. The 60D's versatility, solid performance, and outstanding features make it one of our our go-to work horses for both photo and video productions. You can see a great example of the 60D's versatility in the two pictures above. One is our 60D setup for videography/cinematography productions, and the other picture is our 60D setup for still photography productions. The equipment used with each setup optimizes the 60D for the respective type of production. For example, the video setup helps keep the camera steady while recording. Both setups can be used with additional equipment (tripod, jib crane, etc.) depending on what the situation calls for. In some cases we may use an entirely different setup from the ones shown above. 
Check out the "Equipment and Accessories" section further down the page for a detailed overview of the equipment on  our video rig and to see more of our equipment such as our jib crane!

Our Canon Vixia

Information & Uses:

  • Main Abilities: HD Videography - Advanced auto stabilizing lens, Video Snapshots
  • Other Abilities: HD Still Photos, WiFi connectivity, in camera editing
  • Our Uses for the Canon Vixia: Secondary  HD video camera; primary camera for fast moving, handheld filming because of stabilizing lens; emergency backup for photography. Often used in situations that pose significant risk damage, or situations in which the camera is almost certain to be destroyed if something goes wrong. One of ours took a hit in Hurricane Irma. The screen was cracked but functionality was unaffected.  
  • Production Capability: Up to basic professional (In Manual Mode)*

VIDEO Production Rig

(ViPR)

Summary:

​ShadowCast Studio's Video Production Rig (ViPR) is the backbone of our video production department. The ViPR allows us to take various pieces of equipment and combine them into one system. Equipment used with the ViPR system is shown with red titles under the Additional Imaging Assets section further down.
The ViPR provides extra stability giving us much smoother shots. It may look heavy, but it really isn't. The ViPR is built to enhance stabilization and mobility. The operator can be equipped with a load-bearing vest to further reduce the effort required to carry it around. While the ViPR is lightweight, holding it up continuously can cause fatigue over time. The vest takes the bulk of the ViPR's weight off of the operator's arms. This virtually eliminates fatigue, and ensures a smooth, steady shot, even in the later hours of a production.  
Staying mobile is very important when covering live events, such as weddings. You can't afford to miss a single shot because there are no retakes. When we are setup shop in a single area, the ViPR easily mounts on a tripod just like a regular camera. Attachments are added or removed as needed to suit the circumstances. The ViPR is a very versatile piece of equipment and is just as essential to our productions as the camera itself. We'll update the pictures whenever we add something new to the ViPR.
