SUZUKI KASASHI TVC - shot old school on EPIC

[Mark Toia]

This was one of those jobs that had minimal prep, smallish budget (compared to what I'm used too) , tight turn around time, and hardly any grip toys.. no stabilised heads... nothing ! Just good old fashion bolt the camera to the back of the truck shooting.
Jobs like this I tend to steer clear from as they are fraught with compromise...
I decided to do it because the AD agency let me go for it and don't get in my way, so that makes things much easier from the start... This had to be shot a real old school approach... Like when I was shooting cars 15 years ago.

But it was fun !!!

I think I like the old school way. You seem to get so much more done in a very small amount of time.
but I have to say, if I didnt have EPICs to work with because of the size and usability... I would have been screwed.

That was supper cool Mark... What glass and were most of the flare's in post or camera? looking at the closeup of the guys eyes with the flare...

 

[Mark Toia]

most flares were optical flares that I have shot back in my film days and over layed.. Simple stuff.

Hi Mark

your work always stands out... awesome, how you achieved this superreflective look ?, have you shoot in hdrx or have the bike & the car been totally cgi... looks really crisp what glass do you used, Master Primes ?...

Looks great! I like the old school production style (a little bouncier than usual), mixed with the polished look of the video. Nice Juxtaposition.
