I shot some footage for a music video on a rooftop in East London yesterday, as always shooting my raw footage using Technicolor’s excellent Cinestyle picture style for Canon DSLR’s.  I love the heck out of that little plug-in.  Above you can see what it does - drains your raw footage of its contrast and colour saturation enabling the editor/colorist to get the best out of the footage in post.  I hope you can appreciate which of the above is the raw footage and which has been coloured! 

Keep an eye out for the full track soon :)

Shooting the sh*t

So today we shot two exclusive new videos for Betasaurus, a look at the upcoming Nintendo 3DS and a tongue in cheek little look at software ideas that are great in concept but fail in execution. All this of course means a ton of editing for me, which is always fun because that’s where I really get to put my spin on things. A little preview of our video to come: this time we’re throwing our own take on the Geddan meme into the mix, with Adam freaking out with his trusty DS in hand. It’s an epic dance-splosion you will not want to miss! Yeah, I said dance-splosion. You read it and now it cannot be unsaid. And now some Geddan for those who don’t know what they’re about to feast on:

If that hasn’t got you excited, I don’t know what will. Maybe you have no soul. I can’t help you with that. Regardless, apologies in advance for some image quality issues. Sometimes we like to kick back old school style and crank out the handycam. This was one of those times. I do hope you will check back though, for our video will be online soon!
