I'm selling the LUT / Powergrade I made specifically for this video HERE keenanlam.gumroad.com/l/midnightmoodLUT 🙏
Thanks so much for watching everyone, the video has been doing really well recently, even though I posted it two years ago 😅 Really appreciate the support and check out the LUT if you are interested. ❤
Hope you guys liked the video! The LUT I used for this video is up for sale in the description!
Shot all in one day - wouldn't have been possible without my team mentioned in the description, and Lumix UK for giving me the creative freedom to create this film.
That was insane as usual 🔥🔥
Awesome
using the tube lights as dribbling cones was super creative. nice work!!
The sequence at 1:55 is INSANE! So much inspirational storytelling and camera work. Keep it up!
WOW Just awesome, congrats for all the team!!🔥
Mate this is immense. The attention to detail in every shot. Lighting, colour, framing is just perfect. I’d love to see a full breakdown video talking about your pre production process 🙌🏽
Dude, thank you so much. The team and I put in a SHIFT for this, so I really appreciate it. There is a video on Lumix channels of me talking about the editing process, and I have a sound design breakdown coming out tomorrow!
Hey bro, fair play this honestly is immense! I’ve tried to find the breakdown of the production and post production but can’t seem to find it mate?
@@BradleighAston go to Panasonic UK channel you can see it there
Banger video! Curious if faruq had a script before hand or did you have to ask him questions on the spot?
Amazing film, pacing ,Sfx , storytelling 😍
Thank you so much 🙂
This is ridiculously good.
Beautiful work!
This turned out extremely well! I like the gritty and obscure theme

Man Idk how much pre-production went into this, but the beautiful cinematography, art direction, story telling and the edit just ties all of that together into this beautiful piece of works. Definitely set the bar high with this one guys!
Story Telling? There was no character development or plot. It did like freaking beautiful tho. The editing was some of the best I’ve ever seen
Thanks so much mate! Really appreciate it
This project is crazy good! Loved every frame.
Wonderful!! Loved it... you're the reason I am choosing S5 over BMPCC6k 😊😊

Ahaha, thanks so much dude! Yessir, would not have been possible without my team helping me out with lighting and setup and coordination
Unreal dude, that was beautiful 🤯

That ball transition in the beginning 🤤
Ayyyy that was my fav!
I just watched the breakdown video on how you did voice-over, and man the video itself is just spectacular love every second of it
ahhh thanks so much man! I appreciate you
@@keenanlam_ your welcome man
I just ran into this but the lighting and grading were🔥🔥 I love the switch from slow paced no movement interview to on point camera shake for everything else 10/10!
Thanks so much man! Really appreciate it 👍
This is pure gold
I’ll say it again… mind blowing 🤯
ahahh thank you so much fam 🙏🏼
Huge ! what materials did you use for the lights? a smoke machine for the atmosphere?
Do you have a making of aside? 😁
Hey, yeah type in Above the Rim BTS!
You’re so damn talented, dude. I’m very glad I found your channel
ah broo! Thanks so much man - how did you find me may I ask? 😎
@@keenanlam_ I was randomly looking up bmpcc rigs a while ago and came across one of your vids. Subbed because I thought it was relatively informative and you were still growing, but I didn’t think much of it, and then forgot about the channel until you uploaded that madeira vid. The edit in that first 30 seconds blew me away. I decided to check out your other vids, and was instantly captivated by the level of work you put into your content. Damn near every little detail made me pause, rewind, and rewatch so I could fully appreciate it. Been a fan of your stuff ever since :)
@@bradfordfermin4688 Ah bro! That is insane! Yeah my TH-cam has been a wild ride, but thank you so much for sticking around!
Amazing work - some of the nicest stuff I've seen on the Lumix cameras - great job!
What lens are you shooting on btw?
I couldn't find a better video on youtube about the basket. Great editing, color correction. Perfect bro ! What's the song that starts the video at 1 second?
Thanks so much man!! That is very kind, and I genuinely can't remember, I think I downloaded it from a random site but I slowed it down to match the pacing of the video!
Dude. Incredible work as always
My man 💜 Always coming through with thr support
@@keenanlam_ You deserve it, bro! An absolute genius behind the camera and IRL
Mate, this video and editing is insane! Looks great and lovely to see, how do you film and cut the video. Quick question, Which camera would you recommend based on your experience? I looked at the Lumix S5 ii or the Sony A7IV.
Really nice, I like this a lot. 👊
so dope. luv it
Thanks so much!
Great work. Amazing editing. Congrats!
yo this is crazy man, love it !!!
Thanks so much dude!

Welp, i'm inspired! Did you use Dehancer or film convert or something like that? I loved the grain and the halation
Hey man! I just DaVinci and made my own colour grade for it 🙏🏼

Really enjoyed it. I have one question, which Blackmagic Video assist do you have. I would like to go for the 7inch but i am afraid its too big for the Panasonic S5 in a Run n Gun setup
I have the 5"!
@@keenanlam_ So you think the 5" is big enough?
Super editing
