Had fun with the Mövi / stitched takes.

amazing work!! Must be a bit scary finishing the shoot and hoping you got the right shots to match?

True that, I had my college, Marcus, sitting with final cut grabbing the takes from the video tap and constantly editing while we where shooting and I was running back and forth between the dp and marcus edit. We also held on to all the actors did not take down the lights until we where 2 scenes away just so we, if needed could run back and reshoot if wanted. But it all went very much as planed. But after each shooting day when everyone was really tired i took the sellects and drove off to the office and spent most of the night in flame to make sure we could actually get it together.
The funny thing was the producer never really realize that we where pretty far out on a limb for some of the transitions, and it got quite complex especially for the scenes where the short versions end and then there is another take that carries on for the long version... And for the most part there was just one take that would be possible to go with. All in all it was a bit of a balancing act for everyone involved.

I've watched this a five times and I'm still blown away by the seamless transitions. The planning for something like this, for all departments, I can't imagine.
I love all the color tones, lighting, editing -the whole package. I'll probably have to watch it again.

Here is some swedish food commercials we did a few weeks back. All shot with the mövi and Epic MX and Epic Dragon and a cooke pancro 24mm. Interiors MX sweden and exteriors LA Dragon, a strange mix yes I know and no, there was no real reasoning behind mixing the two and use one in one place and so on, just using what was at hand...
