How much material is needed to create a music video? Normally hours of recording are used to create a clip of just four minutes. But technology opens up new possibilities that until very recently were pure fantasy. Using aPhantom Flex4K camera flash fps at 4K resolution 1000 has resulted in a 3.5 minute video clip with just five seconds of recording. The song is titled “Unconditional Rebel” by the French artist Siska and participated in its elaboration 80 extras and the car that recorded at 50 kilometers per hour. Want to know all the details about this curious story?
The recording of this video took place along a dusty road in an industrial area of France last summer. At this point 80 extras lined up along this path, each dressed in a different way and the remiss to perform an action in the span of a few tenths met. Throwing an arrow, burn a book, shoot cannon of confetti or catch a fish in the middle of a series. The order of the director a car equipped with the Phantom Flex4K camera flash walked past participants at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour.
Only 5 seconds of recording to get the necessary for a 3.5 minute video material. A feat made possible by a Phantom Flex4K camera, a device capable of recording a speed of 1000 fps and all in 4K resolution of 4096 x 2304 pixels, a detail level four times higher than conventional FullHD. Of course then worked on this material to add various effects postproduction. For example, the launch of a shoe “to Arda Turan” going around and around for many seconds of this video or light saber duel with simulated flames was added. Furthermore, it was also digitally placed the artist at various points in this sequence. But the basis of this video was these 5 seconds of footage taken at the race. A nice example of how to create art without major media and a really attractive and surprising result.
The creator of this clip, Guillaume Panadiello describes it as “the shortest shooting the story.” It is not the first time we see effects of “slow motion” in a music video. This technology has become a recurring tool to achieve stunning effects. An example is “Thrift Shop” Macklemore, “Unconditionally” by Katy Perry or “She Wolf (Falling To Pieces)” by David Guetta and SIA. Returning to our video, the song “Unconditional Rebel” belongs to Siska, a recent French artist with a very personal style. Do not know if this artist will continue in the world of music. But at least we leave the retina this wonderful video.
