The Art Directors Club, the premier organization for integrated media and the first global creative collective of its kind, announced the winners of the ADC 88th Annual Awards program tonight at its Awards Gala, held at the ADC Gallery in New York.
I’ve had a chance to get a hold of the 5D MKII on several occasions – seven to be specific (2 of those nights were spent shooting the first film, Reverie.) I’ve felt compelled to try to create something with it each time I’ve had the camera in my hands. And I will admit this camera has brought me back the closest to the feeling I had at the age of 15 when I had my first camera and a few rolls of Tri-X to burn through. Simply put – it’s so much fun and pure.
You’ll see some footage shot with Tilt-shift lenses from the air – my first time with video – as well as one of the last shots of the series that was shot with a full motion picture Steadicam rig. All of the footage was shot with several different prototypes of theCanon EOS 5D MKII that I was allowed to borrow at different intervals – cut in Final Cut Studio, and graded in Color. I’m still in the middle of post-productions with almost every one of these shoots – busier shooting than editing to be honest. But I thought I’d share some of this footage as most of your are likely to receive your production 5DMKIIs sometime this week (those that put their names down first of course.)
