Inside Amundsen's Antarctic Hut
On December 14th 1911, Roald Amundsen became the first person to reach the South Pole. I'm making an Antarctic biopic from the same era - the Golden Age of Exploration - and as part of this project, I take a look inside the world's only replica of Framheim, the hut Amundsen built on the Ross Ice Shelf over 100 years ago.

I spent 10 months painting the world
Переглядів 3937 місяців тому
Subtitles are approximate. I accept no responsibility for border disputes. This mural took 10 months (on and off) to complete. I would have liked to add more shading to the sea but I ran out of time. The painting measures 3.33x2.44m (11' x 8') for a total area of over 8 square metres (88 square feet) and is almost exactly 1:12,000,000 scale. Miraculously, the wall was exactly the right aspect r...

Astrophotography with the Canon 200mm f/1.8
Переглядів 2,7 тис.4 роки тому
The Canon EF 200mm f/1.8 is the fastest 200mm ever made and the longest sub-f/2 lens commercially available. It pairs wonderfully with the Canon C500mkII so I took it out to test the low light capabilities of both. Please consider supporting my biggest filmmaking adventure here www.patreon.com/CastleCrozier

I've begun a series of videos about 'legendary lenses' - unique, rare or otherwise iconic optics. They're not reviews, but discussions between myself and other lens geeks and gurus - think of them as a talk show about lenses! This is the first episode - naturally it had to be about the ultimate vintage lens, the Helios 44-2. I was fortunate to be joined by Alan Besedin of Vintage Lenses For Vid...
