I had little hand in cinematography and camera work, but this was filmed with a Canon 5D DSLR using various lenses including a long telescopic one. We decided to go completely black & white because we had no decent lighting and hence the color variation across the scenes was too much. Also so many of the scenes were so flat that our editor decided to use "post-lighting" which is at times a little too much I think, but definitely gives the images much more depth than the original footage.


Ahhh the things you can do with the right equipment :)
