hear what you see
Why do we react stronger on visual perception than on acoustic impressions, although we first listen before birth and we start using our eyes later on? Scientific tests have proven that if you hear something other than what you actually see, you trust more on your eyes. Therefore videos are very important to transport the „truth“.I am interested in the mutual influence of audio and video and I want to strengthen the visual impressions through the sound. The sound must exactly match what the eye sees and the panoramic reproductions must be perfect as well as in nature video shots as in large orchestral productions.
I can combine my experience in modern music production with the latest development in video DSLR videography and RAW footage. Due to my background in audio engineering, I put a lot of emphasis on the sound of the final movie.
My services include music videos, live recordings of concerts, events, weddings, trade fair presentations, even using multiple cameras.
Experience a whole new dimension of multi-track video editing and let yourself be inspired by the unlimited effects in real time.
I can edit 2K and 4K RAW formats of recent generations of black-magic-cinema cameras or Panasonic GH4 with the typical flair of cinema recordings! Also the grading, the post production work flow of low light, indie film, if desired.
I record with DSLR Canon 70D or using Panasonic which records the sound directly from our high-quality ProTools Digi002 in CD quality or better.
The powerful EOS 70D digital SLR camera featuring instant and accurate focusing of still images and video.
Enhanced EOS Full HD Movie Mode for Professional Quality Video :
With Canon’s new Dual Pixel CMOS AF system and Movie Servo AF, the camera provides continuous phase-detection AF during video recording for quick and accurate focus tracking of moving subjects in the central 80 percent of the imaging area.
For highest quality filming in RAW with 13 Steps for nearly unlimited post production I have a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera.
In combination with the Metabones Speedbooster and Nikon primes we can film in nearly no light. Awesome for concerts, documentary etc.
With the Nikon 50mm for instance we get F/0.75 , yes, below 1 !
Field recording with Zoom H6 and professional mikes by Sennheiser, AKG, Neumann and of course our highly recommended binaural OKM mikes
For Postproduction I use hardware by Apple Macintosh:
iMacs and Macbook Pro Laptops.
Panasonic PT-AE300e, our beamer for presentation
