That looks fantastic. Nicely shot!

Supernice. Thanks =)

Nice work Filippo.. My favorite shot of all the clip was the girl with the drawing book sketching.. just how the shadows were shaping the shot and how the light casting on her made it look so poetic.. Excellent shot on that one

As soon as I decide to give up on this camera, something this nice comes out and renews my patience...well shot and very sharp!

Hi, which Tokina 11-16mm F2.8 did you use, Mark 1 or Mark 2? Canon or Nikon version adapted?

Beautiful!

Excellent work, Filippo.

I'd love it if you could share with us how the clips on the stairway (night exterior) were lit?

Cheers.

+1 I agree Peter. Very nicely done.

Peter, this shot and the two others that comes before it are my favorites.. The light and the shadows on them are so nice

Nice atmosphere in it!... Is it me or is there some color fringing going on in the whites/pink highlights?

(old firmware? or lens?)

Agreed. Specific details about how those exterior night scenes were lit will speak volumes about the capabilities of the BMCC. Cheers.

Downloaded the source and watched it on 52" telly, looked fantastic. Loved the lighting as well.

Outstanding video, lovely music and I have said it before and I will say it again....this camera just loves people.

Hi guys,
thanks for your comments.
The clips on the stairway are filmed in day light (the light from the left side was a reflection from the sun).

Cheers,

Filippo

Fascinating! Not what I expected to hear. Thanks for the follow-up information. Cheers.

It was though, what I was hoping to hear.

It's really quite wonderful. Completely fooled me.

For me, it's a very nice "day for night" example. The practical ceiling light fixture visible in the background is what helped "sell" the shot as a nighttime scene.

However, I totally understand that others may have "read" this shot as a daytime scene.

Very cool either way. Cheers.

I hate to be THAT person but I could tell it was a day shot... I can' put my finger on it. Maybe because all the other lighting was natural and to light just ONE scene seems odd. Plus the look of the light just looked natural.
