Kelly Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Hello EOSHD forum First time poster and long time reader here. I wrote/directed a short film based on Aussie sci-fi novelist Greg Egan's story 'Axiomatic'. I shot this on a 5DmkIII with Zeiss and Takumar primes and the older 1080p ML Raw hack as the 4k option wasn't available yet. Please feel free to check out the teaser trailer on Vimeo: Aussie Ash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ash Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Looks pretty cool Kelly, and music goes well with it too.You had plenty of choices for lenses so why did you use the Takumars ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 Well hello there @Aussie Ash. Thanks very much. An actor friend of my created all the music for me from scratch, he's like Jimi Hendrix on guitar. I only used the Takumar's on the exterior shots since they're older lower resolution lenses and take the digital edge off things which I kinda like. Also I was going handheld, doing some lens whacking while walking backwards on greasy train tracks, 5D3 on fig rig, 5D3 suctioned to the roof of my car while driving 100kph etc. and since they're super small, light weight and CHEAP compared to Zeiss primes, if I dropped or smashed one which is possible as I'm kinda clumsy its easy to replace at $40-$80 compared to $950-$1500 ! If you get a chance to use some of them do so, I really love them with all their flaws. I'd love for you to check out the final teaser trailer below: Aussie Ash and kaylee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
