Ice Bucket Challenge Short Film Shot on Epic

[Jens Jacob]

I was hit by the challenge by 2 people on the same day. For the most part I believed it was a fad but the numbers don't lie... So I said why not? good seems to be coming out of it

Shot at 120fps on a RED Epic with the MoVI M10

no money was spent in creating the video, entire budget and time was donated to ALS. We also wanted to bring awareness to the California drought so we used salt water instead.

By far the most cinematic ice bucket challenge I've seen so far, very well done.

Hi Jens, very well done, love it! I noticed numerous abrupt luminance changes, was that a stylistic choice?

Again, well done.

I like the "ice-cubes on the rocks" shot a lot.
