Dear community,
It is my first post ever in this forum, that I have been reading since years and learned so much from. I never dared to post anything yet, which is why I feel a little bit unsure about posting my own work in the beginning rather than contributing to the community. But I hope you do not read this as a self-promotion post or so, I just now start to feel confident (or old?) enough to not just read but be a more active part of cinematography.com.
I would like to show you my latest work, which is a music video I directed and shot for the band GiiRL.
I used an Alexa with an old vintage Angenieux zoom, as well as a Bolex H16 and a wild combination of various consumer cameras like iPhones, GoPros, DSRL and a really defect photo camera that creates (in my opinion) beautiful digitally destroyed footage.
With each format I tried to tell a different layer of story or emotion.
I am very pleased with the result of the Bolex, as I bought it very cheap on ebay and could not test it beforehand. It was my first experience with analog film and it was such a pleasure. This forum also helped me a lot with so many questions I had, being already answered about the Bolex. Thanks for that!
I will now just leave this video here:
Would be very happy to hear your thoughts on this and all the best from Berlin,
Alex
