We've been wrapped up in creating the Addy Presentation Reel for a while now and have been chomping at the bit to let the secret out. Truth is we've known that the State of the Re:Union promo video won a Gold Addy for a couple weeks now because obviously we had to have a list of all the winners before hand. So we can finally say that we are extremely grateful for the award and for everyone involved in making that project. Big thanks to Al Letson and Ian DeSousa for letting us run with some crazy ideas. Thanks to Jon Shepherd for shooting the green screen material and helping us direct our little skeleton crew. It was project that started a long time ago...and makes me feel very nostalgic and hopeful for the future. But for now...my optimism will take a backseat and nostalgia reigns with behind the scenes photos!:



Good times.

How did the key came out with the lighting that you used?
What camera did you use to shoot it?
Is that Jonathan Shepard with the camera????
Wow. I do miss that weight under my shirt like an old blanket.
Joss,
The lighting wasn't as even as it could have been on the screen, but if you look at the finished piece I think we made it work. I pull keys in several passes anyway, so it wasn't a huge problem that there was some uneven values on the screen. The bigger problem was rotoscoping when the C-Stands we used as tracking markers came into the shot.
And the camera was an HVX.
