Holy shit. Don't think neither sound design nor cinematography gets better than this.

What camera, camera lens and filters did you use to film all this on? rather inspiring

[@quinnarrowsmithfilms]

I'm glad you found it inspiring! As for gear, I used the Blackmagic Pocket 4K cinema camera with an Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm f/4 PRO lens. For filtration, I used a standard, inexpensive variable ND filter-nothing too fancy.

How long days you need to make this?

[@quinnarrowsmithfilms]

Took me about a week to film and then 3 weeks of post-production

[@fouryearproductions]

What are your export settings?

[@quinnarrowsmithfilms]

Render format is h.264 and make sure to check "Render at maximum depth" and "Use maximum render quality" in Premiere Pro

[@fouryearproductions]

@@quinnarrowsmithfilms I meant how did you get it to be wider than a normal youtube video? It even fills up the screen on my phone and doesn't have the black bars on the sides.

[@quinnarrowsmithfilms]

@@fouryearproductions If you want to change your aspect ratio to match mine, go into your sequence settings and adjust the resolution to 3840 x 1634. Hope this helps.

[@fouryearproductions]

@@quinnarrowsmithfilms Did you shoot this with anamorphic lenses?

[@quinnarrowsmithfilms]

@@fouryearproductions The footage was all shot on a spherical lens. To achieve a 2.35:1 aspect ratio, I cropped the image in post instead of shooting it natively on an anamorphic lens. With this approach, you do lose some information on the top and bottom of the frame, but it also provides the flexibility of reframing the footage during post-production, as well as getting that "cinematic look"
