Nike Mercurial Victory Whats Coming Next

This is 5.6K Video.  It’s clean, crisp, and absolutely stunning.  The Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III captures images up to 21 megapixels in size, allowing for plenty of editing headroom. It is capable of producing some of the sharpest images possible on a dSLR. For this time lapse shoot, I wanted to be able to use still frames from the video as part of a coordinated print campaign.

Usually, personal projects go one of two ways — they either succeed or fail, and there’s not much in between. I took a lot of risks creating this project, and pushed myself to try new techniques. Why shoot if you’re not going to take risks?! I am so thrilled that this video came out as beautifully as I’d pictured it in my head.

I always have to do things differently, so I shot the video to play in reverse. This meant that the entire video had to be done in one take. Once I started shooting, there could be no breaks, no cuts, no stopping.  A slight bump of the table or tripod meant shoot over.  There’s nothing like pressure to get the blood flowing!
