What sort of camcorder filters can I use to make a professional-style (looking) film?
Question by j.y222: What sort of camcorder filters can I use to make a professional-style (looking) film?
I have a Canon HV10 High Definition Camcorder (37mm).
I also have Pinnacle Studios 11 Ultimate.
Still- no matter how you shoot a movie- it always ends up looking like a home-movie with acting instead of a true movie.
I heard that filters are used in professional filmmaking (I’m a student filmaker) and I’ve been to multiple sites about getting filters- but none seem to make a lot of sense. If you guys could recommend some filters for me that will make my movie look like a big-budget studio film (as well as prices) it would be greatly appreciated!

Instead of looking into filters, I suggest looking into controlling the lighting of a scene, and using an external (plug-in) microphone instead of relying on the camcorder’s built-in microphone.
