“Perya” - a Canon 7D Short

September 13, 2009

Aug 31 | The Canon 7d Test Team - Jason Magbanua, Threelogy, Cinemaworks and Bob Nicolas Videography - convened at the Edsa Shangri-la for a pre-shoot meeting. It was here where the Perya idea was conceptualized.

Sep 1 | First day of the shoot. We met at the house of Bong at 6 pm - kinda late because we only got the 7d at 5 pm. Drove to Bulacan and started playing, experimenting and exploring the 7d. Shot all night long and went home at four in the morning the next day.

Sep 2 | Returned to Bulacan - this time with the sun still up. Continued shooting and interviewed Perya personalities, as well.

Sep 7 | Jason and I alternately edited the footages here at our house. Editing lasted until the wee hours of the following day.

Sep 9 | Official launching of the Canon 7d. We were not there for we had a wedding to cover.

In a nutshell, the 7d gave great colors, excellent low-light performance and records in 24p! You know how I love 24p. :-)

Here’s the output of our 7d mini-project:

It was a privilege working with the industry’s best once again. Thanks, guys. ‘Til our next project…

    brilliant. just effin’ brilliant.

    you guys created a video in 3 minutes that is so dense and so wonderfully woven together that told a solid story in that time frame that puts to shame some documentaries being put out there by our local channels.

    more of this! :D more collaboration! :D
    peace! :)

    Powerful.

    Moving.

    This is new cinema.

    It’s not about the technology, this is a feeling that only moving pictures & sound can create.

    Bravo.

    This is truly amazing work and I am glad I stumbled across your website here. If I may ask, what lenses did you use for this piece. Was there any color correction done or is this straight off of the 7D. Amazing work! Keep em coming!
