Create a video program that showcases the 35mm film-like look and feel
of 24p high definition video, to be used both as a promotional tool
of 24fps Productions' producing/directing capabilities, and the rental
services offered by Air Sea Land Productions.
The three-day shoot took place in January, 2001 in Nassau, Bahamas -
the same location that was used for last
year's HD shoot.
By developing
several reciprocal content-for-services barter arrangements, the videos
were produced for a fraction of the cost of last year's piece. These
relationships included the following companies:
The
Creative Group
- Post Production/Editing support services
Stuart
Cove's Dive South Ocean - Location Support

a complete list of credits, see below)
"The end result really speaks for itself. Those unfamiliar
with the piece were amazed to realize it's not 35mm film. The saturation,
resolution, aspect ratio, and motion blur together create an experience
that's rather extraordinary. 24p high definition video creates an emotional
response that was - until now - only the domain of film." - Thomas Strodel, 24fps

The NAB

booth displays.

- Notes
The web is somewhat limited in terms of being able to show these
videos in their truest color, resolution, and clarity. To get the full
effect, you would need to see these on a high definition television
monitor. However, VHS and Mini-DV do a superb job as well. If you're
interested in seeing these videos in VHS or Mini-DV format, or are interested
in licensing this content in it's native HD format, drop
us a line.
