Blackmagic Design today announced that DP Scott Sorensen is using ten Pocket Cinema Cameras to capture secondary footage, as well as to shoot cold openings and the new opening title sequence, on Discovery Channel’s hit television show “MythBusters.” Scott is also using a MultiView 16, SmartView monitor and numerous Mini Converters Analog to SDI to remotely and wirelessly monitor and control the Pocket Cinema Cameras.
Now in its 14th season, “MythBusters” seeks to answer questions and debunk myths and urban legends by putting them to the test, helping viewers find out which myths are true and which are not. While some myths can be shot and solved right in the show’s San Francisco based production studio, others require massive explosions, a trip to the shooting range, speeding cards around a raceway, flipping and jumping them or swimming with sharks.
“Going into every shoot, we are as prepared as possible, but we can never exactly predict what is going to happen during an experiment. It’s why the secondary cameras are so important,” said Scott. “We use the Pocket Cinema Cameras to capture every possible angle so we don’t miss any of the action.”
