The Case

 Tony from Empyr Living approached us with an interesting little project. He wanted to create a real estate video for one of his properties that was completely different than everything else.

Coincidentally, we had an unused script from the past that just needed a little tweaking. But it fit perfectly! Run a short story to indirectly showcase the house!

A week before we shot this, we got a surprise from Blackmagic... the Pocket Cinema Camera had arrived! We were eager to use it but didn't have time to really test it out so we literally shot this film both with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera as well as with the RED Scarlet. Fortunately, everything worked well and the film we created was shot entirely with the Blackmagic.

Here are some details about the film;
