Videoclip Ambacht
Last weekend we shot footage for the videoclip of Ambacht, the band I mentioned in one of my earlier posts. For the shoot we hired a Sony EX-1 HD camera and shot the clip on 720p and overcranked allot of the footage to get a nice dramatic effect. Fun thing here was that the performers had to sing at a higher speed, 200% was a bit too much so we pitched the song to 150% and speeded up the lipsync footage to 66% to get it sync.
Some weeks earlier we also made a DIY dolly with rails to get some nice pans. Thought it is not completely a perfect smooth motion we did get a perfect image after applying Final Cut Pro’s smoothcam filter.
See here an example:
Though we had allot of rain during the shoot we still managed to get all the footage and I also got burned by the moments of sun between the showers.
The clip is currently in edit, I’ll post the result here when its done.
