Tuesday, December 22, 2009 at 10:35 PM Vincent Laforet's “Nocturne” Behind The Scenes Video
Vincent Laforet’s short film “Nocturne”, shot on the Canon EOS 1D Mk IV, initially released on October 19, then removed per Canon’s request, has finally been re-released, so I can now share the behind-the-scenes video I edited for Vincent that I blogged about all those months ago. Without any further ado… here you go. Watch it directly below, or click the big image underneath to see it larger or on the iPhone. More info on the video at the bottom.
I edited the video, and shooting credit goes to Joshua Lipton and Matt Louie. Edited in Final Cut from a mix of raw H.264 footage straight off the camera and some that had been converted to ProRes. Mostly edited on a flight to New York on the way to Photo Plus Expo, in anticipation of releasing it right away, but by the time I’d landed the Nocturne had been pulled… and that brings us to today. It’s only now that Canon has officially released the video that we’re finally able to share the “behind the scenes”. You can also read more about working on the shoot on Stu Maschwitz’s site prolost.com.
I’ve posted this video on YouTube.com and Vimeo.com as well. Feel free to embed and share!

Loved the BTS of this thanks.
arf arf arf arf........hello.....please tell me....1080p hdmi raw ?
Nope, the HDMI output is not the raw feed I'm afraid. For that you gotta go RED ;-)
thank Joseph
Good job...
What type of external monitor is he using?
Scu; I don't know offhand. Pop on over to Vincent's blog and dig around in there. He's probably already talked about the gear he used on this shoot quite a bit.
Hi Joseph,
Great work! I've seen your movie at a Canon event a couple weeks ago and was just blown away with what's possible with photo cameras this days. Just got my Canon 7d (since my budget gets limited by my girl ;-)) and was looking for some ideas about my first project with the 7d, when I found your website/blog.
Great stuff, keep the good work going and stay creative.
Cheers Mike
