The black bars at the top and bottom help to give these clips a filmic look, high budget films do this by using expensive anamorphic lenses which stretch the footage, which is then un-stretched in post. I opted for the free method, in adobe premier I took a template of the black bars and placed it over my footage I then stretched it to match the duration of the clip and then as if by magic I got the letterbox effect.

Initial dolly shot tests
Dolly's are used to create smooth moving shots, these can be to follow a character, set up a location, add suspense etc. I recently purchased one and decided to do some test shots to try and muster up some inspiration for our film opening. Enjoy!
