Blackmagic Design today announced that award winning director Derek Yee purchased the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K for his production team and to provide footage for his new film, “I Am Somebody.”
As the chairman of Hong Kong Film Directors Guild and a film director known for his critically acclaimed works including “Protégé”, “One Night in MongKok”, “Shinjuku Incident” and “Triple Tap,” director Yee was no stranger to Blackmagic Design’s products before his purchase of the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K, as many of his films were graded on Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve.
When preparing for his film “I Am Somebody”, which tells the story of small time actors working as extras in Hengdian, the world’s largest film studio, Yee wanted a portable compact 4K cinema camera. Chi Ying Chan, DP of the film, best known for his work on “The Man with the Iron Fists”, “DOA: Dead or Alive”, “Finding Mr. Right” and “Detective Dee: Mystery of the Phantom Flame”, recommended the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K for its compact size, lightweight, ability to record 4K RAW and easy to use Blackmagic post workflow.
