In the end - this video was shot with less than 12 hours of pre-production - from the time I got the camera to the time we shouted “Action. adult website hosting”
The budget I set for myself was around $5,000 total - which included $2,000 for a one hour helicopter flight over the city. The short film was shot over two nights - from 5 p.m. to 4 a.m. - with two models, three assistants, a co-director, one editor, and one makeup artist. Both video and still imagery. Along with behind the scenes footage flash templates.
Oh - and did I mention we only had ONE battery? (We had to plan on constantly re-charging that one battery throughout the shoot…)
It was shot with 100% still photography equipment (lenses, grip/mounts, and a single Profoto 7b battery strobe pack (the strobe wasn’t used - just the modeling light))- with the exception of an expensive video tripod and head best web hosting, and an LED light…
If you can’t see how this can all be done in such a short period of time, with zero pre-production, not a single filming or location permit, and on such a small budget - you are missing one of the main reasons this camera is a “Game Changer.”
This camera is the ultimate “equalizer” - you no longer need half-million dollar’s worth of high definition video cameras and lenses delivered by a truck with its own driver to shoot a high definition film in low light - you just need a $2,700 camera and a few lenses - and talented and dedicated friends that you can call on last minute at the drop of a hat.
Everyone has been waiting for the video camera that can also take stills… here’s a still camera that can shoot stunning video virtual private server.
This is a leap of change that is sped up - it’s happening overnight.
The video or “short film” or whatever you want to call it - will be up as soon as humanly possible (in this case it’s technologically actually - not humanly.) More details to come…. we’re also putting the finishing touches on a behind the scenes video that shows just exactly how this was done…
