Last Flight Trailer

Zane — Sun, 24 Apr 2011 08:35:12 +0000

Over the last couple of years Sunset Studios has been helping out Damon Keen with his short film Last Flight (official site here) and about a month ago we completed it, actually we completed twice (always remember to save your work kids). Since then Damon has been entering it in film festivals all over the place (keep an eye on the blog) and Richard has been putting together a trailer (below). A lot of this film was shot here in the studio and we also did the grade, not a easy task (read about it here). Anyway we’ll let you know where you can expect to see it as soon as we know, ’till later,
Z.

FilmCAD 2010

Zane — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 12:48:17 +0000

I teach a paper at Unitec officially called “LAND 7230 CAD Studio” however it’s more affectionately known as Film CAD. I’ve been teaching this paper for over 10 years now! Students have 3 major hand-ins; a story board, draft video, and the final video. While doing the paper, students get a crash course in film theory, green screen compositing (shot @ Sunset) and learn various software packages including Vue Infinite and Finalcut Studio. Each student is responsible for their own video (I tried group projects once, never again) and they have to do it in one semester. If your keen on seeing the results of all this (18 in total) you can go to Youtube or watch them below (at the end of the first clip there should be a menu with the rest);

The Earlybirds Shoot

Zane — Sat, 15 May 2010 11:56:48 +0000

Tim Van Dammen and Tim Flower were in the studio a couple weeks ago shooting a video for The Earlybirds song ‘Can’t Live Without You’ . I popped in to see the chaos that Tim (V.D) described as the “wettest shoot ever”. The water spraying off the drum kit was spectacular and it was all being captured on a Red (camera). Check out some of the photos Anton Falco ter Veer captured here, some awesome stills which include a couple behind the scene photos of the setup.The edit has really done it justice too, love the lens flare effect.
