Unbelievable thatwe shot this in 4h
I just found raw files from a car commercial for this bat boy from @audi I did back in 2021 with @stereofilms . So here they are edited into something that’s kind of a DC … but solely with the unused footage.
When I shoot cars in a studio I always try to design or find an unusual and interesting top lights to underline the story or mood and push interest into an object that really wants to be seen on the road. I sill love the batcave setting and lighting so I pushed a black and white grade and crushed the dark parts real good to minimalise the image and emphasise the cars look. And did I mention that we pulled it off in just 4h incl rigging and derigging.
Watch with headphones, or better … huge speakers.
