  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Here's a nice little car stage shoot Rich Lee and I did a few months back on Dragon and Phantom cameras. It's nice to be able to blur the lines between in-camera effects and CGI to the point where you can't tell which was which.

That's pretty cool. It's a lot cheaper to get carbon on that car than on a Dragon.
 
That looked really great. Good use of high speed, and the color looks terrific.
 
Was the body on the Fender guitar all digital or was there some kind of porcelain body made up?

The guitar smashing is 100% live in camera. At great expense a mold was made of a real guitar and then we had 2 complete guitars created out of a special resin type material. Closeups of the guitar falling were of a real guitar that we dropped and caught before it would hit the floor. I think the smashing was all at 2500 fps on a Phantom Flex.
 
Added a link on my original post for those that don't see the video embedded...
 
Very cool! Is this Phantom 4K Flex or older version? I assume glass matching on both cameras? Curious how much light pumped through source to get that wonderful soft box look?

Great job.
