Asif Limbada - Dubai

Wait.. music videos in Dubai??? film etc. man they don't talk about this in the states. I think it's great! congrats on the camera bro.
 
wow...I checked out the videos...man I stay in Detroit and Dearborn has a huge Arab population but you don't see or hear about the great things Arabs in Dubai are doing...man people are people and talent has no color.. keep up the great work fellas.
 
@Tony Harris: Yeah Tony, MI:4 was shot here, they are filming or about to start principle photography for Fast & Furious 7. But this place is awesome.


@Ketch: Yeah man, you are right. This one was directed and shot by a good friend. I needed someone very sensitive to achieve the aesthetic we were going for. I hope you guys liked it. :)

Yeahp I sure did... Too bad as of now I didn't find a proper agreement with a local company to come back to the Emirates and make a Abu Dhabi shoot in the likes of the SkydiveDubai 2012 shoot I did times ten folds...


But if it was ever to happen, I know the right man to go to now... ;)

An awesome film I recently produced here in Dubai, here are the details. Check it out.

A thought-provoking conceptual film about the inner conflict between good and evil.
The inner struggle between good and evil exists ever since the creation of humanity. It's at the center of every incident in human history. It also exists on a much personal level: the soul, mind, and will of every human being.

Exceptional looking footage my friend. Which Anamorphics were used? The tone of the whole piece was really enthralling. Great work by everyone involved.

Hi Noah, thanks for the kinds words. we used Kowa Anamorphics with 2x PL IBE Extender.
 
I cant see the footage, but the IBE 2x extender worked good?
Ive been looking for a 2x that will work properly with the kowa anamorphics, Ive tried the angenieux 2x and also the century but neither worked properly and u got a softness and it hurt the resolution as well.

I have a kowa NAC made 200mm lens, with a rear adapter, which , when its finished with refurbishment, will be a great lens..
