Smoothcam

Since the majority of the shots I took were hand held, I had to smooth out the footage in shake. The smoothcam node works great for situations like these. The only downside is that I will have to crop the footage where the smoothcam makes adjustments.

Shoot Day 1

Took an HVX and a tripod to my three locations: abandoned pillars, under the bridge, and the electric plant. I shot several takes of each location (at least 30). The footage was shot at 60fps.

LOCATION SCOUT #3

This location was at the abandoned cement/grain factory. It had great structures, however, the lighting inside was pretty low. So it probably won’t be ideal for shooting.

LOCATION SCOUT #2

This location was brought to my attention by one of my friends. It’s located accross the bridge next to the abandoned fireworks stand.

LOCATION SCOUT #1

The first day was just me on my bike with my Canon XTI dslr looking for interesting locations. I wanted to find an urban that had lots of structures to weave in and out of.
