Seminar Project

So i am thinking that I am going to do either black or black and white for my colors documentary.  I have some really cool ideas for visual transitions and stuff, but I feel like I will need a better quality camera to really do them to my liking than the cannon that I own or the hand-held cannons the dmp has.  I wonder if there's any where i can borrow a camera built for effects?  I just really can't stand grainy footage, and my camera certainly gets that.  I suppose I could just buy an HD tape, but If i don't have an HD camera that will do me little good.  Are the DMP cameras HD?  I also think it might be cool to do another color, but i don't know which.  The only colors I feel like I wouldn't get bored with are red and green.  Ooh i just thought of gold. I could do so much with gold: value, royalty, superficialism, or maybe play with the idea that you add metal, industry, class, you classify and materialize a happy color like yellow and you get gold which can sort of become a black hole.  See, the idea of a black hole would be soooo cool though!  like using that metaphor.  There are so many things i could do visually with a black hold metaphor.  ugh.  So many ways to go with this.
