URSA EF Used on Popular Japanese TV Show on WOWOW
Posted: Tue May 24, 2016 12:55 pmBlackmagic Design announced today that URSA EF and Blackmagic Production Camera 4K were used to shoot the popular TV drama series "Utenai Keikan." Production of the show is also based around a number of Blackmagic Design products, and is graded using DaVinci Resolve.
“Utenai Keikan,” (means a ‘cop who can’t shoot’), is a suspense crime TV drama series based on a novel by Yoshiaki Ando, depicting the strife and revenge drama of an internal police organization. The main character Reiji Shibazaki, played by the actor Shinnichi Tanabe, is a police inspector who had progressed through the ranks at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. However, he was trapped by someone and forced to resign. Shibazaki then swore his revenge and to regain his position back as the head at the police department.
Takahiro Imai, the DoP of this series, used URSA as the A Camera and Blackmagic Production Camera 4K as the B Camera. “In my past, I have primarily shot with film cameras. This show is the first time that we have used the URSA as the A camera. Most of the scenes were shot with the URSA, with narrow shots needing a smaller camera as the only shots not done on the URSA. For these we used the Production Camera 4K. The shoots went very smoothly and the URSA has a great sense of stability like film cameras.”
