Definitely! We can capture behind-the-scenes footage during production or create a dedicated making-of video to showcase your process and team.
What kind of equipment do you use?
We use professional-grade cine cameras, lighting, and sound equipment to ensure the highest quality production. Lens choice is project dependant but a firm favourite of ours would be to pair an old set of vintage primes with a state of the art cine camera, we get the warmth and character from the glass in the lens and the high latitude and gorgeous colours from the sensor. We love Blackmagic cameras! 90% of the time the URSA mini pro G2 is our A Camera on set.
