|
| Full Circle Studios has recorded digital video & audio in just about any kind of environment and situation. We’ve shot sequences in a freezer at 28 degrees Fahrenheit, and in Malawi, Africa at 108 degrees Fahrenheit. (We also work well at room temperature.) |
|
| We’ve been inside coke ovens, at industrial plants, on construction sites, in helicopters, on boats, in balloons, on stage at musical performances, in corporate boardrooms, exploring haunted places, and just about anywhere else possible. (We haven’t been in outer space, yet.) |
|
| We also shoot in the studio equally well. |
|
| Full Circle now offers complete HD production in a wide range of formats including: 720p, 1080i, as well as a variety of digital cinema styles. Projects can be output to HD-DVD, Blue-Ray, or to tape. The day approaches (quickly) that all production will be in HD, and older materials will need to be up- converted for future use. |
|
| Beyond our technical knowledge and experience, we also have great people skills. We work well with kids, with CEOs, with actors and non-actors, with just about anybody who needs to be put at ease to give a great testimonial or a great performance. |
|
| Full Circle can cast a production, find & dress the locations, create sets, secure make-up, props, and costumes, direct the shoot, and prepare the assets for post. |
|
| When it’s time for post-production you’ll find us at our facility intently staring at our Apple Cinema Display monitors (or our new HD displays) editing, color-correcting, audio track layering, or creating graphics & animation. |
|
| All of our editors are expert in Adobe AfterEffects, which means that they can create the layered, motioned, polished look that enables productions to compete in the national marketplace. |
|
| And don’t forget the soundtrack. We have the composers, musicians, music libraries, and audio recording experience to match a professional soundtrack to the high-quality imagery. |
|
| We also know quite a bit about how to roll out your presentation, a thing or two about support of retail sales, and getting distribution on television. |
|
| Full Circle Studios can help you navigate the landscape of digital media production and make your next digital media production a hit. |
| One of the major changes in producing projects in HD will be the absolute need for make-up on all on-camera talent, including interview subjects, as the increased detail & resolution offered by HD will reveal even minor imperfections. |
|
| The same attention to detail will be true for sets, lighting, costumes, and props, as SD (standard definition) tended to hide flaws - HD will not be as forgiving. |

HD
photography will greatly enhance the field of nature & landscape
documentary. The increased sharpness, detail, and color reproduction
will offer
a much more effective set of tools for the producer of materials
for education, scientific analysis, and for entertainment. |

production (like the
4:3 SD production
pictured here) will
continue for some
years, but eventually
all production will be
16:9 HD in some
form or another.
