Gerald Loidl · November 22nd, 2008, 09:13 AM

A commercial shot for a local shopping mall in Austria.
Was produced to be shown in cinemas.
Filmed with Sony EX1 and Letus Ultimate adapter.
Starring Benno Hankowetz - a BMX pro.
Music by Toothpix.
Camera and cut by Gerald Loidl and Afra Hämmerle-Loidl.
Low budget production, but looks pretty cool projected on the big screen.

At first I was confused how this was going to work while it was in the parking lot but then it suddenly made sense and everything came together nicely. Ending was great with the bags.

the final shot shows up a lot of barrel distortion, or was the wall curved?

Vincent,
yep - the wall was heavily curved - shot with a 50mm lens - so no barrel distortion coming from the lens.

A good bit of editing, well timed with the music. I am placing my order for an EX3 early next week (our VAT rate has just dropped to 15% - effective from 1 December).
