Sony HVRV1U and then I used Magic Bullet Looks for the effect.

I would prefer a short story there...The place was amazing!!Nice music,too.
Jon Rawlinson 2 years ago

Hmmm...well I drove out to Death Valley and walked up the dunes...

Thats it. :)
DaVincicode 2 years ago

Nice job Sir Jon Rawlinson. The attention to detail is apparent in this piece. The editing was great with the
perfect blend of music and visual. One mans journey
taken one step at a time. And the depth of field was amazing. So what is the secret to shooting there? We all want to know. But surely a piece to be proud of ..thanks
Jon Rawlinson 2 years ago

Thanks!

Thanks Philip! Hopefully one day I can shoot stuff as nice as yours!
Daniel Hayek 2 years ago

Nice short, any advice or techniques for protecting your camera from sand?
Jon Rawlinson 2 years ago

Unfortunately no techniques...I got sand all over the place. I didnt use any protection, kinda stupid but I really wanted to shoot in the dunes.
Gabriel Soares 2 years ago

George G 2 years ago

Fantastic as always, Jon, thanks for sharing this. I thought it was great, the colours were just amazing, and the scenes were very .. good .. in a very vague way that I cannot express.
brian hunt 2 years ago

Great work Jon,
was the vignetting done in Camera?
Which Mini 35 and lenses?
Jon Rawlinson 2 years ago

Vignetting was done with Magic Bullet Looks. Only used a Sony HVRV1U camera.
Brian Mulligan 2 years ago

I like the sand, real nice with the wind blowing it, probably not so good for the camera thogh.
Johan Mattson 2 years ago

Great stuff. The color theme and vignetting fits perfectly. I've also always wanted to shoot in the dunes, hope to do that one day.
Pierre 2 years ago

Sand always inspires me. Thanx for sharing this moment.

ilolproductions 2 years ago

The music makes it... almost... haunting. So good! The final shot is excellent. Color grading adds a dramatic aspect. Did I mention the music? =D
Manuel Alducin 2 years ago

Fantastic video. Really makes me want to visit Death Valley during my next trip to CA.

Guess I better invest and learn in Magic Bullet.

Great shots! I went to Death Valley when I was a little kid. This sure brings back amazing memories. Death Valley is so large and so quiet, everyone needs to know what "that" feeling is like.
