Standard Definition and Film reels 

 

Documentary reel

 

SD. Regarded in the UK as one of the most watchable doc reels of the nineties. Fantastic editing by Mathew Stonehouse.Most of these shots can be achieved on HD with a suitable budget.  

 

 Fire

Shot on SD in 2000 degrees C temperatures led to the creation of firecam. This too can also be repeated on HD!   

 

Moco

SD Motion control and timelapse featuring the British Prime Minister and his cabinet. Shooting digital makes compositing moco moves reliable and more efficient than using film,

 

The End

500fps film camera 200 feet of track a 20 story building and a big bang....one of the most extraordinary documentary tracking shots ever attempted.
