Iceland Images

Iceland Images is a nonverbal film by Petur K. Gudmundsson.  Information from Petur:

This is a nonverbal piece shot during a week long roadtrip around Iceland. We headed east from Reykjavík and continued driving an extended version of the ringroad through the northen most part of Iceland and kept going all the way to Ísafjörður, capital of the Westfjords. We filmed in known as well as less known even more beautiful locations all around the country.

Shot with: Sony Nxcam, Canon 7D and Canon 350D for TL.
(This is by the way our first project shooting on the NX and the 7D.)
Editing and Post Production done in Sony Vegas Pro 9 and graded using Magic Bullet Looks.
 
Music score by Michael Stearns and Armand Amar.
 
More Info and behind scenes footage available here:
A much nicer and smoother 1080p version might also soon be available at trailerparkstudios.net

Southwest Light Poster

Tom Lowe, creator of Timescapes, has announced a new film: Southwest Light

The film will be a mixture of timelapse, slow-motion, and real-time footage.  Tom will travel the American Southwest (California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona & New Mexico) for ten straight months, no stopping.

Tom says: "My goal is to create a portrait of “a time and a place” using poetic, haunting, jaw-dropping visuals.  The genre of the film will be similar to non-narrative masterpieces Baraka and Koyaanisqatsi."

Tom has received financial backing and plans to start shooting in Feb 2010.
