Set in Baltimore, Maryland, The Wire will begin its fifth and final season January 6, 2008 on HBO. As different from standard TV as it gets, the show has received the highest levels of critical acclaim, being referred to by multiple reviewers as "the best show on television." In its last issue of 2006 Time Magazine ranked The Wire first on its list of "10 Best TV Shows."
Creative COW's Nick Griffin spent time on-set earlier this year and interviewed one of the show's Producers. They talked about shooting styles, lighting and camera strategies and many other elements that go into making The Wire one of the most well produced shows on television.
Here is Nick Griffin's inside glimpse into The Wire and its production.

HV 20 Brevis upside down hitch - Cinevate Brevis35
I'm familiar with your setup thanks to your Creative Cow magazine article (which I read with great interest). The P+S Technik is out of my range, but after 10 or so hours of web research, it seems that the Brevis35 may be the best lens converter in the low end of the price range.

A Journey into the World of Documentary
This is my first attempt to make something that I am really passionate about, and I am doing it with the help of friends and other freelancers. The budget is low, but my dreams are big. I would love to hear comments from those that have gone before me on this journey.
