Perhaps my most ambitious project to date, responsible for filming and editing a highlight video for a 3 day, 2 night music and arts festival based on the outskirts of Chiang Mai.
Around 3000 people attended 2019’s festival, which featured artists and musicians from around the world.
I dragged all my gear to the festival, utilizing a variety of equipment, including a GH4, an iPhoneX and stabilizer, and an action camera. Also coordinating with a filmmaker responsible for some fantastic drone and GoPro sequences, shot with the DJI Mavic 2 Pro and GoPro Hero Black 7.
The main challenge in post production was editing all the different 4k elements, and making a seamless montage, lining up the different footage and making it look coherent. Also, summarizing and attempting to capture the festival highlights and overall vibe. Color correcting footage from a variety of sources and sensors was an interesting challenge…lining up 4k from 4 different sources to create a single montage.
Balancing that with getting appropriate footage for the two main sponsors, Leo and Moose Beer, and fulfilling various criteria for the client.
A great experience all around!
As for the other films in the playlist…
Synergy is a popular Chiang Mai based New Years Eve party. In 2018 it was held in a nightclub called November Chiangmai. I was hired to capture the event and it’s highlights, and to feature the activities. I started by capturing sunset with my DJI Spark, and returned to the club later to capture the nights’ activities, including performers, DJs, art, stalls, and more.
