Hi guys,
This is a short film I shot a year ago with my 5D. Actually it was not born as a short film, but I just shot something handheld thinking to make a really short video and maybe use it in a blog article, but when I watched all the footage I thought I should do something bigger and share it.

The full film is available on Vimeo On Demand: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/thecameracollector
And this is the article I made on my team's blog: http://www.brancoottico.fineartlabo.com/blog/the-camera-collector/

Shot on 5D Mark III firmware 1.2.3 with RAW 1.0 2.35:1
Lenses: Canon 24-105 and vintage Nikkor 55mm f/1.2


Workflow:
1. RAW to CDNG conversion with raw2cdng.
2. DaVinci Resolve 12 (BMD Film + proxies + roundtrip).
3. Editing with Premiere Pro CC 2015.
4. Back to DaVinci Resolve for Color Correction and Grading.
5. Single file exported from Resolve and imported into Premiere for final audio mix.

I tried to give an "Arri look" to the footage.

I just watched this on Vimeo. Absolutely stunning, you didn't even need to speak to speak Italian to hear the raw passion for his machines. Bravo.

I Believe Davinci has a LUT called ARRIsomething, Also premiere CC 2015, the lumetri panel has an ARRI Color profile that you can apply to your footage.

Also, regarding coloring, Basically just make everything "Blue&Orange" and almost anyone will praise your color grading.

Hi guys,

Thanks for your appreciation. With "Arri look" I not meen a blockbuster teal and orange grade, but a slightly greenish and warm grade with warm and not too magenta skintones and also a wide dinamic range.
This is what I see in a lot of professional grades made on arri footage.

I didn't use any color LUT, just converted the footage to BMD Film and I started from there. I have to say that the ligh and the forniture color you see helped me a lot to achieve that look.
I also added a bit of grain in resolve using its new grain FX.

Oh, looking at the trailer you should also be able to understand which clip has been shot with the 24-105 and which one with the 55 f1.2.
