Wow, just wow man, this is absolutely beautiful! great work! Very cinematic, Terrence Malick style. Was wondering which lenses you used, then saw it was only Sigma 18-35, come to show it's all in the eye of the shooter.

What resolutions you used for slow motion? What was your compression ratio for the 5K WS?

btw, you should correct the text to: shot on Red NOT shooted with .

I love the opening image, especially the hot white fire on the crushed black background fading to the black and white image. Nice work!

Thanks Nicholas and Oron, I really appreciate your words!

Oron, I only used the sigma 18-35, and a extremely cheap 50mm canon f1.8. Chasing the animals was really difficult and dangerous (high velocity, holes, rocks..), I like to focus on the story and what happens in front of me, not thinking about what lense choose or if I will lose it in a bounce.

Super-slowmotion 120fps 2kWS, slowmotion 60fps 5k WS, I dont remember the compresion, but not the better

Shot on Red -> Sorry for my bad english :blush2:

looks amazing Pablo! I wanted to ask, did you use a ATA carnet to get into the country? Or was it not needed?
