New Music Video "Cronofobico"
  • MrEddMrEdd

    First of all, thanks to all for what we´ve learn this couple of months! It has been much more than hacks and more about film making. This work was mainly done with timelapses, using burst mode, a timelapser controller and a DIY Slider.
    The other scenes were shot with @driftwood ´s orion! Hope you enjoy and we´ll apreciate any kind feedback

  • johnnymossvillejohnnymossville

    That was incredible. Beautifully done and I love the song as well.

  • MrEddMrEdd

    thx guys!

  • rikyxxxrikyxxx

    Superb!

  • rikyxxxrikyxxx

    Just a question: how did you get the clock to melt?

  • leejb4leejb4

    @MrEdd Which Micro Four Thirds lenses did you use?

  • MrEddMrEdd

    @rikyxxx using 2 hot air guns, one on each side, and getting real close between timelapser interval

    @leejb4 2 lenses voigtlander 25mm and olympus 14-54 (wider shots)

    No-one's mentioned the colours yet, but I really love them. I assume it was graded in something or other?

    Anyway smokin' video (in many senses)!

  • bheathbheath

    Beautiful! very gentle hand. Anything with smoke or atmosphere gets my eyes. If you could post a link to where we could buy a cd of the music, that would be great. Love to see the motion control rig you developed for this. Thanks for posting!

  • leejb4leejb4

    @MrEdd Thanks, and exquisite work. This has got to be some of the best GH2 work I've seen.

  • MrEddMrEdd

    Thank you @Mark_the_Harp! It was graded in AE with colorista II, I attached below a before/after comparison!

    @bheath I´m glad you like it! You can hear them on http://www.myspace.com/zorraproject And as soon as we can, we´ll post some pictures of the Slider.

  • MrEddMrEdd

    @Leejb4 Thank you! That is really encouraging since we all already have seen great work from this tiny camera!

  • sammysammy

    Great work, loved it...How did you do the shots of the band members fading in and out ,yet the camera is moving? were they green screened ?

  • MrEddMrEdd

    @bheath I attached some pics of the slider

    @sammy Thx! It´s easier! Since the slider is motorized, you just need to make 2 takes, one of those without the subject and then play with opacity between them

    @MrEdd - Jeeze that's brilliant! And so is your use of it. Thanks.

  • ehrehr

    nice! do you have any links on how to make that slider?

  • Mark_the_HarpMark_the_Harp

    Yep - great use of a motorized slider to do two takes and mix between them. I've often done just a mix between two static shots, but using a slider to do repeatable shots and mixing between them - that's a genius idea!

  • sammysammy

    wow, thats a great idea, so the timing would be just perfect, i guess the only way to do that shot is using a motorized slider, a normal one wont work

  • oscillianoscillian

    Wonderful! An excellent track with an excellent video. What more do you need? :)

  • B3GuyB3Guy

    That, my friend was pure joy to watch. It embodies so much of what I love in this world . . . unique and original things; filmmaking, music, even the location was a piece of art. beautiful,

    and since this is P-V, dare I say the GH2 gives it an unmistakable and wonderful vibe. You truly played to the camera's strengths here, you clearly paid attention to your lighting and framing.

  • peaceonearthpeaceonearth

    great! I's like to repeat& confirm what @B3Guy said.

  • rikyxxxrikyxxx

    @MrEdd Thanks for sharing your craft and showing us how you made the video.

    Looking forward to seeing some new music videos by you in the future :-)

  • duartixduartix

    Brilliant work!

    Great music, great footage and amazing grading & editing. Somehow I was lead top believe this was an American or British progressive band and I was about to comment on how they vaguely reminded me of Dead Combo:

    And then I saw a few names in the comments and it hit me: "Shit, these guys are making brilliant music, they are Portuguese and I had never heard of them... Where the f**k have they been hiding?"

    Well, it's a bit hard to keep up when dozens of great Portuguese bands have emerged in the last 2-3 years and in good time they did... :)

  • MrEddMrEdd

    Thanks a lot guys! It´s really great having your feedback!

    About the idea of mixing the takes, it´s the same principle used on motion camera control, but on a low-tech device :)

    @sammy unless you have a bishop on your film crew, that´s the only way
