I shot this with my mark 3, almost entirely in 50 fps RAW. Iso was at 3200 and I could still make a heavy grade and really make the red hoodie pop out of the background in DaVinci Resolve.

Amazing video, congratulations

The music and the athlete are really good . So many question have after see this

You recorded the video with a steadycam? Lens? Color correction?

Great steady cam work brother and I like the color grading you did for this particular shoot.

Also I thought the location Excellent to be in the parking structure because with the available lighting there and with the help of RAW video, it definitely got the job done!

Well done!

Thank you all for your nice feedback!

I filmed this on my Glidecam HD-2000 (which is really great), and the lenses I used were:

Canon 70-200 f4 IS
Canon 17-40 f4
Sigma 12-24 f4.5-5.6 (for the sitting tricks)

U welcome

Thanks for sharing

Wen you using the glidcam is better to use the lens wide open.. or you have any kind of puller focus? Do you use all the kit, glide + vest/arm? Can't stop watching this video, so damn good, everything.

Any extra lights??

I don't have a remote follow focus or anything like that, so when using the telephoto lens I have to be really careful about the distance. With the wide angle it's not so critical. You could of course use the ML rack focus if you need to refocus. I only have the handheld glidecam, as I rarely do shots that are longer than 1-2 min. and it's ok for me to hold it with my hand for that time. I rented an arm/vest once when I had to do repeated 3,5 min shots which wouldn't have been possible handheld. In my experience the arm/vest doesn't give you extra stability but helps with carrying the weight.

No extra lights were used.

No extra lights were used. Damn good sweet 5III

Very very cool video!

marekk · « **Reply #12 on:** November 16, 2013, 02:28:28 PM »

nice video !

Did you use glidecam for all lenses or only with one ? How long does it take to rebalance hd-2000 after changing lenses ?

Andre Meyer · « **Reply #13 on:** November 16, 2013, 03:00:20 PM »

Wow great work. Very nice steady cam moves! Nice grading and edit. O yeah and the guy with the ball is also amazing!

I used it with all lenses, I think it takes me about 5 min. to rebalance, but that's an estimate, I never measured the time ;-)

Camera work and editing are mind-blowing, also footage looks fantastic even at 3200!

I don't know if it helps you, as it probably only looks good on footage with a certain kind of color-style. Especially the 3rd node, because it precisely targets the red color of the hoodie.
Here's what the 3 nodes do:

1. Basic contrast enhancement from the very flat BMD Film color space
I then exported proxies with plans to do further color grading after editing. While editing I already played a little with RGB Curves in Premiere and got to a look that I generally liked, but there were some weird color transitions in the highlights so I decided to go back to Resolve hoping that I can do better with it. So after editing I did this:

2. I pulled the gamma to the blue side and the gain a bit to the warm side and gave it a more contrasty curve.

3. Pushed the brightness and saturation of the red hoodie a bit.

Maybe you can use some of it ;-)
