Winter in Hell
1 year ago

This is a 8 minutes short film, not a quick youtube video, please be patient or watch it later.
I shot this film over the course of a year. It then took me few months to edit and color grade it.
Synopsis:
Winter 2010, the stunning landscape of Iceland succumbs to the Arctic cold. Beaches and lakes get frozen, but something unexpected is going to happen... the earth shakes, warms up, and suddenly a big crack opens up at the top of the glacier Eyjafjallajokull. Lava, smoke, ash and fire come up from the depth of the earth, melting everything in its path.
Shot with the Canon 7D and 5D MarkII using Canon & Carl Zeiss lenses.
Special thanks to Die! Goldstein for the music. die-goldstein.com

really stunning work
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks.
Iceland is one of the few untouched places.
Very very nice. the contrast!
now fast cuts between hot&cold stuff ? :) in the next video..?
loved this work!
Saludos!
Also, "warm up" should be "warms up".
Cheers.
Thaks Alex, my english is quite bad, hehe.
Best.
What was the music?
The music is made by a Spanish Guy called Die Goldstein, myspace.com/diegoldstein he´s brilliant isn´t?
i'm pretty sure that it will have a huge success over the internet, congratulations.
We are going in March to shoot again, I´ll keep you posted.
How close did you get?
and I know I have much , much to learn :)
and for sure I will return to Iceland
all the best.
Closer point to the volcano was around 200m. Ash shots around 1km.
Best way to learn is shoot and read.
Good luck.
May God be with you, always.

A wonderfully crafted piece of work, and my only criticism (and a mild one) would be the same as PUDINGfilm - the sudden wave slomo's jarred a little, though in principal they were a very good idea.
Cheers.
Thanks for sharing.

¡Ha merecido la pena esperar un año! Te ha salido estupendo Enrique.

Congratulations!
I´m planing to send it to festivals actually, hope it will work out.
this is stunning! Breathtaking! I have seen it all with my own eyes, including the erruption, and sometimes think, when sharing with friends or family "I wish I could show it to them as beautifull and dramatic as it really was".
And HERE IT IS :) Thank you :)
I have one thing that bothers me: Why such a negative title? Winter in hell? :(
I have thought before started watching "OMG wonder what he has been through.."
But I can see raw breathtaking landscapes and eruption - which had to be- at least for me- the most powefull experience so far..
For me Iceland is a paradise. Austere and perilous, but still never hell.
This is just a thought, but I wanted to share it. Maybe you'll consider renaming it, following a thought you mentioned - from ice to fire, the clash of titans or something :)
I love the work itself truly.
I´m glad you like the video, and more if you saw all this places, Iceland is indeed a paradise, I can´t imagine any other place where you can feel the nature as you can do in Iceland. I´m in love of this country.
I don´t think Iceland is Hell, OMG no! but when you are near of a volcano, you kind of feel like Hell must be like that. And since that event toke place in winter, in a place surrounded by glaciers, ice and snow. I thought it was quite a nice title. Less specific, more poetic. Isn´t?
Thanks anyway.
Cheers.
