BILLIAM JEANS - Denim Commercial for Instagram - RAVEN

[Levi Arnold]

Shot this on my Raven set-up a few weekends ago in South Carolina.

Used natural light and shot everything 100% handheld in 60 or 120fps at 4.5K. Because it was kinda dark in the shop, pretty much everything was shot at 2000 ISO and then cranked up to 4000 or 6400 ISO in post.

Wow Levi that looks great. Love the whole look. What lenses?

All these shots are on a vintage Nikon 35mm f/2.8 and a vintage Takumar 50mm f/1.4. For a few of the shots like the first one and the sewing ones, I freelensed with the 50mm

Levi, you were destined to do a denim piece.... I know, that's dumb humor.

Anyway, when you say hand held, are you using a shoulder mount or DSMC2 side handle or ???

Genuinely beautiful work!

 

[Jacob Ryan]

Nice audio work. What kinda audio setup did you use?

 

[muhammad]

That was awesome..

 

[Spencer Weaver]

Hey Levi that is some pretty stellar work. Good concept and execution! Well done, mate!

 

[Levi Arnold]

Thanks everyone!

I used the DSMC2 top handle as my point of contact - side handle would have been dope but the top handle works great in the interim.

Nice audio work. What kinda audio setup did you use?

I recorded all the audio back here at the studio using my Zoom H4N and an AKG studio mic. Some of the hits/transitions were from Envato and others I created in GarageBand.

 

[Surinder Singh]

That looked great loved the sound too.

 

[Erik Vanlenten]

really well done!

 

[Andy Roberts]

Thanks Levi.

 

[Josh Tyron]

Beautiful work Levi. Love seeing the Raven get some love.

 

[Alvise Tedesco]

Great execution! Already used it as a reference. If I get the job, I owe you hospitality whenever you'd visit Italy

 

[Levi Arnold]

Thanks, Josh and Alvise!! Raven is small but mighty Definitely will connect with you on my next trip through Italy - glad to hear this piece was helpful!!
