At Fat Head Media, we love our jobs. We do great work for some amazing organizations, small and large.
Personally, I spend a lot of my day coding websites or web applications as well as doing a fair amount of video editing. While we strive to make all of our work achieve the highest aesthetic quality, much of it is fairly cut and dry; form and function over raw creativity.
Occasionally, our raw creativity needs some exercise, so we take it out for a walk. That’s what happened this past Tuesday when we got together with some of our favorite local talent to test some new video gear, the day quickly turned into a 48 hour short film production.
I blame Chris Weatherly for showing up and saying “We need a story”. From there it was all downhill.
Most of the shoot focused on the awesome capabilities of the Kessler Crane KC 12/8 UltraHD (with Hercules Head), but trying to build a script and shot-list on the fly definitely gave our right-brains a work-out.
The result was something that looks pretty cool, especially considering it was written, shot, edited, sound-designed and color graded all in about 30 hours.
