Once

and the wonders of HDV filmmaking.

Once (2006) dir. John Carney

I have a HV10 camera which shoots HDV videos on DV tapes. It's a little broken though. Once was shot using the HDV format and what wonders you can achieve with crisp cinematography, great story and a beautiful soundtrack. Sometimes I think we get too attached trying to find the best format for our films when we forget all the basics of camerawork. Especially so with the advent of the HDSLRs and the fluffiness of soft-focus.
