    Incredibly good Frank. Great to finally see some great Parkour and Free Running videos finding their ways on to Vimeo. I have been following Jason for quite a while now and it's great to see a video about him.

    Any idea about cameras used to film it? I guess the first-person shot was done using GoPro, how about the rest?
  • Frank Sauer plus 8 months ago
    Hi Krystian, I used the GoPro and the Gh2 with a wide variety of lenses.

    One of the most amazing pieces I have ever seen around the Parkour & Freerunning world.

    Excellent compositing, colors, editing, sound and athletes. Also having Jason and Enis featured in this video made me smile, they fit the profile of such amazing quality - good choice.

    It was such a pleasure to meet you in London, keep it up mate!

    Sorry for one more questions but it's not in the tech spec... Did you use AVCHD or Motion Jpeg Compression ?
    And great work !
  • Frank Sauer plus 8 months ago
    Hi Egal, I used standard 720p 50fps with AVCHD.

    This is such a nice video! Love the feel and the words that are spread with it!
  •  
  • Martin Elkhaiat 8 months ago
    One of the best videos I've ever seen. Props to director & co. This is awesomeness
  •  
  • An amazingly good production.
  •  
  • By the way Frank, do you think that the GH2 is a more cost-efficient solution (in terms of price-to-quality ratio) compared to the 7D, when shooting high motion performance?
    I'm actually impressed by the quality of the panasonic... considering it's definitely cheaper!
  • Frank Sauer plus 8 months ago
    I love the gh13 and gh2, because of its auto-focus system and light weigth. It really depends on what kind of project you shoot.
  • I reviewed both options and it seems to be coming down to price for value vs details. The GH2 indeniably wins in terms of price... but if you want to get amazing slomo, the 7D seems to offer better coverage.

    We'll be shooting dance, acrobatics, martial arts, break-dance, both indoor and outdoor, sometimes with extensive time remapping.

    Danke schön!

    ^yeah, I thought this was on a 5D before I looked, the gh2 is amazing. That video is amazing

  • How does he do that its amazing

  • Carlton Eide 8 months ago
    Gorgeous! This should be a commercial for the GH2. What did you use to color correct your footage?
  • Frank Sauer plus 8 months ago
    Hi Cariton, I used Colorista II for color correction.
  • Carlton Eide 8 months ago
    Awesome. I work in Color, but I've been meaning to try out the Colorista II trial for a while now. This video might just be the thing to push me into trying it. Thanks!

    Brilliant.
    It's great to see how much free running is developing as a sport and how filming is also developing.
    It's come along way from the first low-quality footage on mobile phones eh?
    Brilliant film, well directed and flawless camerawork, really well done.

  • CID MACHADO 8 months ago
    Amazing stuff! You really caught the atention of the viewer covering many aspects of the subject without being boring or too FX/cut oriented. It´s well balanced. Congratulations and thanks for sharing!
