Behind the Scenes on a 5 min ad peice
This was shot entirely with Canon A1s, the BtS and the feature. Over 90% had Brevi (multiple brevises) attached. We were quite surprised at the imagery this cam could produce in this setting,...

Matt,
There is some great cinematography in there but I think it is lost in the length/repetition paired with the inherent lack of content in a shoot like this. I think at about a minute in length...
