Editor - Stunt - SFX supervisor : Daniel Bruylandt

Enjoy!

Cool - a hint of satire woven in the storyline as well. One of the better colour grades I've seen in a while. Really got the footage to 'pop'. Out of curiosity, what was your post workflow on this project?

 

[Michael Schrengohst]

The satire was perfect...

 

[Greg Ephraim]

loved this video, great job....always appreciate a video that puts thought into transitions!

ps-I didn't know Beck was in a Belgian rock band

 

[Allan Stallard]

Nice! Love the grade and transitions. Rockin' band too!

Hi,

The post guys just send me the workflow they used.

All the R3D rushes were transferred to Apple ProRes HQ for an Offline Edit and an SFX draft in FCP.

Then all the shots with SFX were rendered in Redcine in 4K Full via Crimson.(they needed to zoom into the static shots to add the hand held tracking)
The rest of the shots were rendered in 2K for grading via Crimson as well.

The SFX and the grading were done in After Effects in 1920x1080 and rendered in HD.

Jeff

Cool Stuff. The band reminds me of Dread Zeppelin weirdness-wise...I like it.
