Iceland
1 year ago
Iceland. Land of contrasts: Hot water and Ice, situated in the North Atlantic, right above the mid-ocean ridge that separates America and Europe.
Shooting was done in two stays (2 weeks each) in 2005 & 2006 (both in September) with a result of 15 hours of footage.
Camera was a SONY Z1. I used some COKIN semi-grey Filters extensivley to get the sky as dark as I wanted it to be. Almost not color correction was done in the post, but the timelapse and slo-mo.

I would have loved to hear the sound of the falling water or of the vapor coming out of the land, etc., and specially the scene at 04:36, how does it sound like?
It is a shame that you killed all those sounds...
IT IS BEAUTIFUL!!!

The shots were done in 4 weeks 2005 & 2006 (both in September). All in all I took 15 hours of footage. Camera was a SONY Z1. I used some COKIN semi-grey Filter in a lot of shots to get the sky as dark as I wanted it to be. Almost not color correction was done in the post.
I did not visit the blue lagoon, but enjoyed a bath at Landmannalaugar.
The song is also used in "Life Aquatic" by Wes Anderson.
Thanks again for watching the clip, glad you like it.
Cheers, Eva
Etonnant et superbe.

Keep up the good work. Looking forward to more of your work!
i want to see more of your works!!!!!
You can get there when you pass this bubbling mud on orange land and then big lake with a lot of vulcanic islands.. sounds like in fairy tale when you go to rescue the princess :)
thank you so much for the visual/aural treat! ;)*
And more then that :)
I have a question about the cokin filters:
Do these darken the entire shot, or only the sky/brighter areas? If the latter, how does it work? Is it a gradient?

Well done is just inadequate.
