ORLEN VERVA Street Racing

In cooperation with LIVE Agency we have made an ambient viral commercial of the biggest polish racing event in Warsaw.
Orlen Street Racing in Warsaw
Because this action was in centre of the city we had only few minutes to film each place where the car stoped. We have used for it few camera operators with motorbikes, 4technical cameras (helmets, inside of the car) and a helicam. From the whole action we have made of course newscuts for all the tv stations which wanted it.

Here You can watch our edit:

OP1's first tests with 3D Panasonic Camera AG-3DA1

Panasonic has announced premiere of the new 3D AG-3DA1 compact professional camera on September 2010.

To be honest we are pretty forward with new technology and we were to curious to wait. This model came to Poland yesterday and thanks to our good friend - Darek Grudzień we could test it already. Now materials are in postproduction and we are checking out what kind of tricks we can make with it... :)



Working with this camera is not easy on the beginning. After some time we get some knowledge about it's features and it bacame easier. We believe that with this model it will be possible to make good 3D shootings in terrain even without 3D glasses - Camera has a programme for showing stereoscopic field (convergence point) on 2D LCD screen.
