DP Claire Mathon: “We used the Varicam 35 only to shoot full moon nights. And we chose the Red Dragon for the colors especially in nature.”
“The Transfiguration” (Un Certain Regard)
Camera: Canon EOS C500/1D C
DP Sung Rae Cho: “C500 and 1D C are both very compact and lightweight (essentially the size of any DSLRs or prosumer camcorders), appear far from intimidating [like] professional film crew equipment, yet packed with pro features – shoot real 4K, wide dynamic range and unbeatable low light sensitivity. All were very important for our film since we wanted to maximize the use of existing locations. We shot a teaser with the Canon C300 and we like the look and its ease of use. When the time of principal photography came, choosing Canon came to us naturally. We contacted Canon USA were kind enough to support us thought the production.”
