    Wow! Amazing video! What kind of chopper did you used? And which lenses?
  • Michael Ragen 2 years ago
    Thanks David! We had bunch of Nikon glass for one camera and the Red 18-50 for the other. Don't recall all the specific glass. The chopper was custom and was rockin an HVX200.

    Congratulations. Amazing song, wonderful video. Beautiful colors; very effective usage of depth of field. Great production work. It's good to see the RED and other high-tech gadgets put to such good use.

  • Michael Ragen 2 years ago

    No one in their right mind would use a carbine to shoot a flying bird. Its good for two things, big game hunting and shooting people. It is NOT a bird gun. (the rifle used is actually a military carbine) While I love the music and the video "works", perhaps a little common sense in the picking of the firearm would keep people from reading this wrong.

    Maybe he wasn't trying to shoot the bird?
