. . . smart, proactive goverenment idea to "go to the people so they don't have to come to us". No telling what will happen when the people start marching on their Royal Family structured government (wink)
 
Grading was done in Red Cine (Primary), Secondary in Colorista in Afx, as there was no time to go trough Da Vinci (complete post was done in 6 days, with 3 people involved, I was director/editor/compositing for some shots and grading, 2nd guy was 2d animator/compositor and 3rd guy was 3d only)....
 
We have used Cp.2 set (full range)for 2 days, and Canon EF lenses (16-25 2.8, 50mm 1.2, 85mm 1.4, 70-200 2.8).....

Cp.2 is great set, and it is a great value for the price. It is so easy to keep the focus in control comparing to Photo lenses....
 
Hahaa, man...let's not mix politics and art :)
Anyways, it's not so bad here as you can see on Jazeera or BBC....

Interesting choice of username. Gorgeous work. Reminds me of other compelling works that gloss over and glorify ugly, repressive, corporate-aligned, corrupt regimes. Who does not appreciate the talent of Leni Riefenstahl?

So, to praise such achievement without acknowledging what the work itself promotes...complicity?

My favorite narrative film about complicity, shot two decades pre-Red -- The Official Story (La historia oficial)
 
Very nice Slobodan,

Photography looked great. Very polished and the compositing was tight. A few questions if you don't mind...

1) Did you use any lens filters?
2) Did you guys use markers during photography, i.e. for the PORTAL button interaction?
3) And was the last 'Pull out' shot a simply dolly shot dissolve to CG footage.

Very well done.

Hi guys, thanks for your support, I really appreciate it.... I have completely lost real judgement on this project after many hours spent on it.....For the people who have requested I will try to post before and after stills from this corporate, and to explain the workflow for this project, together with few last minute tips and tricks that I have learned during this project.
@Marq - We have used only ND's for shooting outside, to keep our iris wide open. Yes, in some shots I have used some markers, specially for 3rd part of the movie (Minority report lady) - I have planned all shots and graphics before the shooting, and I knew the positions of screens and buttons, so with few different takes I've got what I wanted, so it was easy in post. Last pool out was a steadycam move trough corridor, with dissolve to CG footage....

Once again, I know that this film could look much better, but with given deadline and resources even this was a miracle.
