Peugeot / Red Bull

Peugeot 208 GTi vs Jaden Leeming 30'

Following on from our Red Bull: Conquer the Crown film, Director Ryan Heron asked me to DP this clip for Peugeot and Red Bull.
Ryan wanted the piece to be dark and moody. It was a great lighting challenge. I decided to put in a row of Par Can's along the back wall to add some visual interest and backlight the smoke. With the shiny black Peugeot I was basically playing with large reflected sources.
I shot on Red Epic as the main camera. Haimona Ngata was my B Camera Operator on a Red Scarlet.
We bought in Daryl from Phantom Effects with his Phantom camera on the second shoot day. I shot this at 1000fps, for the stunt sequence. This involved a pretty substantial relight to lift the levels for the Phantom exposure, while keeping the dark moody look that we had established.
