Behind the Film
ARRI commissioned us to concept and create the launch film for their new camera the ALEXA Mini. We wanted to create a piece that encompassed the freedom of adventure, was visually beautiful, and that put this brand new small form factor camera in a wide variety of shooting locations & situations.
We teamed up with Freefly Systems who provided technical support, gear, and crew throughout the duration of the shoot. During the project we used their newly developed MoVI M15 rig as well as the Alta drone to accomplish the multitude of dynamic shots we had envisioned for the piece.
We worked closely on developing a distinct visual look for the film that was inspired from Guillermo del Toro’s body of work - including his films, but also all the artwork he and his collaborators have made that was inspired from Mexican folklore, dark fantasy, and Jalisco poetry.
