  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Here is a BTS for a commercial we worked on in august for a swedish insurance company. Directed by Swedish director Markus Johnson and shot on our epic by UW DOP Eric Börjesson using his custom Epic UW house. http://www.ericborjeson.com

I was VFX sup on the project down in SA and at Syndicate we also did all the compositing, grading and CG for the film.

To say the least it was a tricky one not only is it difficult to shoot animals but we also had storms, bad weather and some other difficulties.... Sea sickness was only one of the issues. Personally I was hanging over the railing of the dive boat for the most part and the reason for me doing so was not so much to see what was down bellow... But luckily we had a great crew and others that could handle the 3 meter waves and strong winds much better than I ever could :)

Here is a link to the BTS, the actual film is in the very end, and the BTS is a bit long, so scroll forward if bored :)


There is also more pics, links and such to be found here: http://www.syndicate.se


The Behind the scenes stuff was all shot with a scarlet that we brought down there for backup and some go pros.
 
Bjorn you will never stop to surprise me.
Well done, and keep pushing the visual envelope.
Cheers

And by the way,
I know the melody you used in the BTS (For sure a Hollywood movie I worked on for a trailer but can't remember) so, who is the original melody composer?

Edit: Never mind I got it.
