Combination of the sensor and DNG equals magic! I bought Sigma FP cause of it and it didn't dissapoint!

The soundtrack is incredible

[@just_julian]

Those classic haunting first days of spring man...

[@binuserkaf]

Chris this was magnificent. Literally looking through bmpcc 4k videos to really get a feel for the things it can achieve as I'm looking to either purchase one for myself or rent one for my upcoming project(that just happens to taken place primarily in Detroit). The way you made this beautiful city look was breathtaking and inspiring and has only further convinced that this one of the of the cameras not only for the job but for me. Would love to know more about how you go these smooth shots and more lenses that work well with the Black Magic cameras! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@faded_memory]

Hey Bin thanks so much for the comment! Something to keep in mind is I shot this on the original bmpcc which has a different sensor than the 4K so it’s gonna have a different look. That said the 4K is a great camera and most ppl would argue it’s better than the original. I shot this video on a gimbal for smoothness and I only have one lens for this camera so can’t really help you there.

[@alexanderigood4686]

[@lakshyaautomotive]

This is my second time watching this kind of video. this videos give a different vibe. my first time watching this kind of video was the video of gawx 2. btw keep doing this and if possible try ways to reach out different audience as well, as the target audience of this videos are less. but you should keep doing this

[@TANZANIAFILMMAKINGTV]

GOOD JOB I can see Hallation

[@picoroballa940]

This is a movie trailer 😍

[@BlueHouseBurning]

I own one of the original BMPCCs also, and I want to shoot more with it for little projects like this, but haven't ever gotten an external power source for it. The handful of batteries I have for it last about 20 minutes tops. Cool video though!

[@faded_memory]

Yeah I’m just using third party internal batteries. They def don’t last long but hasn’t been an issue for me.

[@Kohl_Fast]

Damn this is inspiring

[@Cinematicmemories_]

Fantastic

[@faded_memory]

Thank you!

[@shebbe]

Really makes me want to buy the OG BMPCC again! The music is beautiful. I see you did sound design but did you also compose the score? I'd love to hear more of that.

[@faded_memory]

Thank you! I didn't do the score

[@wachulator]

magic

[@marcelw.6317]

this is insane

[@faded_memory]

Thanks!

[@JMach4217]

One thing I am curious about....What song is used in the background? It sounds like Olafur Arnalds, but I don't recognize it...

[@the49thstate_]

I would also love to know!

[@jemwithacam]

gotham vibes FR!

[@alfarrezalchannel]

nice ❤

[@Kohl_Fast]

So inspiring how did u get such a good image🤯

[@faded_memory]

Thank you! Years of practice

[@realChannelZ]

👏Absolutely amazing compositions throughout the video. 🎬Which pro mist filter did you use? TIA.

[@faded_memory]

Thank you! 1/8

[@Littlefaace]

💫

[@matthewhartman7176]

The halation in the highlights doesn't lie, does it? 😂
I personally love the organic image but think it's a very stylized look that probably wouldn't do well outside of short/feature narrative and doc work. You really have to put a stake in the ground with this cam.
No hate, I own this camera myself. 😂
As well as the 4k and 6k Pro. 🎉

[@loadedtadpole]

Jesus Christ. Fucking magnificent.

[@faded_memory]

Thank you!

[@oh_ilya]

WOW! It's one of the best bmpcc og footage i've ever seen! what version of 14-42 did you used?

[@faded_memory]

Wow thank you so much! I used the G X Vario PZ

[@oh_ilya]

@@faded_memory thanks! I have 14-45, but thinking about pz version for compact size.

[@r.numbered]

Nice. A video that makes me question the FX3 choice.

[@faded_memory]

I have an fx3 too! They’re both great cameras for different reasons.

[@benjamindesplanques1011]

I wish the same video could be shot in Chicago :)

[@faded_memory]

I'm sure I'll make it over there one day

[@isisgaston]

oh ur amazing

[@faded_memory]

Thank you!

[@blackhax36]

Who did the sound design for your video Christopher?
Everything is very impressive here. Hopefully you'll continue to excel in everything you do my friend.

[@faded_memory]

I did. Thank you!

[@fenderblender356]

looks absolutely amazing!!! did you use the 14-42 pancake version or the bigger one?

[@faded_memory]

Thank you! Pancake

[@klastorps]

It looks amazing, very well done! I have the same came but still struggling with understanding how the powergrades work...

[@faded_memory]

Thank you!

[@klastorps]

@@faded_memory I watched the video and ordered the same lens right away haha!

[@faded_memory]

@@klastorps it’s a good lens especially for run and gun shooting

[@chasingpham]

Need to get you a camera car!

[@faded_memory]

So down!

[@alexsalinez]

Where did you get the music and sounds from?
Amazing work!!

[@andreetarkov]

All this work is great, I still have that camera with that same lens, but I would like to know what gimbal you used to make it look so fluid. I just got the weebill 3s and I think that the stabilizer flow is very fair for this camera, regards! from Mexico.

[@faded_memory]

Thank you! I used a zhiyun crane not sure what model it is off the top of my head but it’s older

[@yuyirol]

I love it ♥ I'm a film enthusiastic and I'm looking for a budget way to get that film style of Sam Reimi's Spiderman movie

[@faded_memory]

Thank you!

[@ChrisIngramTheEditor]

Looks amazing! How did you go about color grading? I had a hard time with coloring the footage

[@faded_memory]

Thank you! I used the powergrade I mentioned in the description

[@MichaelLangsnerMusic]

This is beautiful man! I just picked up an OG a few weeks ago and have the 14-42 also, figuring out how to rig it up atm, any tips on what you did? - Cage, Battery/power, SD card, monitor, audio, etc...?

[@faded_memory]

Thanks so much! Honestly I bought this camera to be a literal pocket camera and not rig out. All I did was throw it on a gimbal and use a pro mist filter on the lens. Battery was just third party internal batteries. No monitor, audio added in post.

[@MichaelLangsnerMusic]

@@faded_memory awesome, thanks!

[@faded_memory]

@@MichaelLangsnerMusic oh and the SD card was the Kingston 128gb card I saw a bunch of ppl recommend. Shot in prores 422

[@MichaelLangsnerMusic]

@@faded_memory Thank you! Yea I've seen that one recommended a bunch too - have had 2 of em sitting in my Amazon cart for a bit haha

[@jean-guybadiane]

Kingston select plus (couleur verte), mais seulement à partir de 128gb car le débit en écriture des versions inférieures est moins bon.
