In our latest interview, Paris-based cinematographer Boris Abaza @borisabaza takes us behind the scenes of the second season of the high-stakes action thriller series, “Coeurs Noirs” . Taking the lead for this new season directed by Frédéric Jardin, Boris faced the challenge of evolving the show’s visual language while staying true to the gritty, high-energy DNA established in Season 1. To capture the sweltering, dust-laden atmosphere of Morocco, Boris chose the Angénieux Optimo Prime Series coupled with the IOP system. “With this very interesting and useful flexibility, you can bring the lenses pretty much where you want. With Bryan Randell, we really started to « build » a look from scratch that could match initial ideas. It ended up with a combo of an internal uncoated filter, in addition to an external PV filter Allure Black Soft 1/8.” Read the full interview via the link in our bio!

Full film here : https://youtu.be/bF0Fk2q23ZQ?feature=shared. Quand @guillaumenery m’a parlé de ses #hallucinations en profondeur j’ai tout de suite visualisé le #film. La première qu’il ai eu lorsqu’il a dépassé les 80m de profondeur en #freediving lors de son premier #worldrecord: un grimlins ricanant et gesticulant. Un mariages. Des sons métalliques. Qu’elle liberté extraordinaire que de pouvoir utiliser les dérives du mental pour créer une #fiction déjantée. @jacquesballard @jerome_lozano_vr @pmcroquet @

Under the blue skies of Paris, the F800R and MG1200Bi delivered powerful light for the setup inside the Eiffel Tower🗼 ✨ “The power and size make for an excellent soft fill—even in strong backlight. Quick to set up, and easy to move around.” When in Paris… we had to take the Eiffel Tower shot 😄Big thanks to @jacquesballard ! #godox #knowled #filmlight #behindthescene
