Hope of Life - Guatemala

A recent piece I put together for my church. Shoot details below.

Shoot Details:
I shot on the 5D Mark II, a manfrotto Monopod, a Glidecam type stabilizer and a wireless lav. Contax zeiss lenses. That's it. No other support gear since I didn't want to be carrying around my Epic/MoVI and draw a huge amount of attention to myself, saying: "Hey look at me...come still all my expensive stuff." Made it very difficult to focus using only the back of the canon LCD screen in broad, 100 degree daylight, but I think it turned out ok. As long as this video is used to help rescue one child, I'm happy.

Edited in FCPX.

Chris you are so talented, it's scary. Great job. WOW...that full frame sensor is INSANE. I forget how awesome a 5D can look.

Can't wait to see what you do 6K on Dragon, which is pretty darn close to this.

Congrats. As always.

best.

Always appreciate your comments. I want dragon sooooooo bad, I just can't justify it right now since I'm slammed with work on Epic MX, which is an AMAZING camera!!

Thanks Lakis. Hope of Life is an amazing organization, changing and impacting lives around the world. I love putting together videos for my church. I do all the work pro-bono, as it's a way for me to give back, even if it's just a little.

I added some graphics to help viewers get a better understanding of what went on.
