Hi guys

Thought I'd post a link to a new short I made - I haven't posted much on dvinfo in a while so why not.

It's a strange poetic fusion in this one but natural history in there of course!

Enjoy....I hope.

Nice video
I liked the editing as you mix both the fields .
Is there any stock footage used (planes footage i mean) ?

Nice one over all.

best regards

No stock footy.
Planes are cgi :)

Mat,

Would you talk a bit about the CGI on your Spitfire? It's amazing.

Very nice Mat,
I agree, very well done on the graphics. Did you do them yourself?

Hi Uwolers

Thanks for your comments. I think the way these two stories mirror each other is quite lovely. I could have explored it much more deeply but I had just 2min to cut too.

The Owl footage was a dissapointment. I really wanted some frame filling nicely lit super slow mo but this was script to upload in 5 days and the barmeys wouldn'r play ball. I am going back to shoot them again soon !!!

Cg - In a previous life I was actually a cgi artist so I know this stuff well but no I didn't actually do these shots. That would have really been too much in my 5 days window! They do rock huh !
