    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.

      @@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 :)
