    I completely agree. Such a skilled art that is beginning to be re-appreciated.

    Great video! What did you use for the intro/outro shots? Dolly? Steadicam?
  • Hunter Johnson plus 2 months ago
    Thanks a lot! I used a makeshift board with wheels on it with my camera on a tripod. Then polished it off with the "smooth cam" filter on final cut.

    Coming from a Graffitti background, i always wanted to make signs like this. I applied, and got a job at a sign shop, thinking that this was they way there were made, but instead everything was done on computer. They told me that nobody paints letters anymore. Im glad that they were wrong. This is the shit!
