Behind the Scenes at a superfad Phantom shoot

Matt Jeppsen | 09/19

Production of Kung Fu HD high-speed spots

superfad is the creative production company behind some of the most compelling uses of high-speed video that I’ve seen to date. When Vision Research needed a demo of their Phantom camera for NAB 2007, they tapped superfad and DOP Stephen McGehee for a three-minute demo that showed off the camera’s high-framerate possibilities. The result was impressive. You can see a fairly detailed behind the scenes featurette on that project here. Another recent project was a few essential elements-themed spots for a Kung Fu HD channel. A photographer working to capture stills alongside the 1000fps Phantom has posted a short behind the scenes clip on the project, you can watch it below. Two of the finished superfad ads are posted in their high speed gallery. Enjoy the slow motion goodness.

NAB 2009 RED Reel Online
Mark Christiansen | 04/27

Not the same as 4K, but definitely entertaining and pleasing to the eye.

The RED reel that showed at NAB 2009 is now viewable online (right click to download it).

There are even a couple of shots on there from a shoot I was on as fx supervisor. It’s a gorgeous, cinematic reel and an entertaining viewing.

NAB Tuesday: Getting Plugged In
Chris and Trish Meyer | 04/22

When the most peaceful place in Vegas is the NAB show, you know something is up (or in this case, down).

Noise is everywhere in Vegas. Slot machines are mostly just noise, and everywhere there is loud music - we heard U2 at the breakfast buffet, AC/DC in the hotel restroom, and even the popcorn street vendor on the corner…
