    The Fire Knife Dancers I got to film are some of the best in the world and are all based out of Hawaii. My friend Chado helped produce the video and gather all of the dancers and plan out locations and times. He also supplied the guys with the fire knifes. It was a true honor to work with these guys and I now consider them all great friends. This video was all shot on Maui. Here are the names of all of the dancers I worked with, in the order they appear.

    Vincent Tua Evalu
    Malo Jordan Mata'u III
    Martin Tevaga
    Sean Aquino
    This was all all shot on my Canon 6D. All of the shots were done with my Canon 16-35mm 2.8 L Series lens on the Glidecam. This was shot at 1080p @ 30fps. I edited in Premiere Pro CC. I didn't color grade at all or speed up any footage, all the footage you see is RAW, right from the camera (excluding the slo-motion of course). I used frame blending for the slo-motion to create the smooth blur effect.
    The smooth, floating-like shots were done with a Glidecam HD 2000. You can learn more about Glidecam's in the link below. They take a learning curve, but are amazing once you get the hang of em!

      For video I prefer Canon DSLR's. More versatile. Everyone has their on 2 cents on the debate but I feel if your looking for best video, go Canon. For best photos/stills, go Nikon.

    Hi, I need some advice. I have a canon t5i, do you think I should film in 720p at 60 frames a second so I can make the video slow motion to make it smoother. or should I film at 1080p 30 frames/second for better quality. Also I'm debating between a glidecam hd2000 and an xr2000, I'm not sure what the big difference is, can you help? thanks

    • @amirazakeri
      @amirazakeri  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Frame rate completely depends on what you are shooting and how you want your film to look like. I'd shoot the slo mo at 60fps and the regular stuff at 30fps. I've only used the HD 2000 so I'd have to recommend that one.

    Shalom and Aloha to my Pacific region neighbors, G-d Loves you and sent His Son, Yeshua ben Elohim (Jesus Christ), to die on the cross for your sins. The Holy Blood of Yeshua made you whole, new, and forgave you of your sins. My friend, please give your life to Yeshua "Jesus Christ". Time is running out and the Son of G-d is coming back to earth as the,
