"Bloodtraffick" - Vampire vs. Angels in Hong Kong

[XiaoSu Han]

Directed by Jennifer Thym

Shot on RED ONE 4K with Zeiss Standard Speeds in Hong Kong. Cameras provided by digitalmagic (thanks Percy!!!) because ours was stuck in the US upgrading to M-X

We shot a short film as a preview of what we would be able to do and are looking for financing for the feature version of this. Come on, who wouldn't want to see Vampires vs. Angels in Hong Kong?

Comments and questions welcome, as usual.

Good luck with the rest of production!

Great shots! I like the atmosphere. Strong "Hong Kong" feeling (I love this city). I like how you put the lights in the interior shots.
Very promising.
Thanks for sharing,
Marc

great looking stuff! looking forward to the trailer.

 

[Sidney L. Plaut]

as always your work looks great...

 

[Matt Garrett]

any pics w/ lighting set ups?

 

[Andrew Wilding]

Im curious as to wether you are sharpening these, and if so how and how much?

Your stuff always looks very crisp, but certainly not over sharped. I personally have so far completely avoided sharpening, as I've thus far found it to strip some of the filmic aspect of the Red footage. It seems like maybe you've found a nice balance.

Or maybe your just using relatively sharp glass and have a great AC?

 

[XiaoSu Han]

Hey, we're working on the short film at the moment.

We're looking for funding so we can hire a writer as well, or if anyone who writes wants to help out... let us know!

Yes, some sharpening has been done on those. I always try to find a good bridge between crisp and oversharpened...

Sorry, can't release too much more at the moment, only as soon as the short film has been finished...

 

[Roberto Lequeux]

Beautiful! Always gorgeous imagery from you XiaoSu Han.

I like the concept too. Anything with angels at war gets my attention.

 

[Matt Gottshalk]

Love the look.

 

[Frank Weeks]

Beautiful girl too!

 

[XiaoSu Han]

Lighting wise we hung around 16 4banks in the "wing-room" and did some more partial hanging in the other rooms, because of the action scenes that needed 360 degrees we used only two 2feet 4banks on stands to accetuate the key, everything else was prelit from above.

 

[Erik Franzén]

That's a great look you got going there! If you ever have the time around to produce a making-of I'd be the first one to watch it!
Rock on! :emote_hippie:
