Happy Saturday guys! I usually don’t post on Saturdays, but thought it be a nice idea, being that I was checking Vincent Laforet’s blog, and noticed the awesome movie short – Reverie is back online! (and it still makes me homesick!)
For those of you who don’t know, Reverie was a short film made with a new Canon 5D Mark II. STUNNING images, amazing work. Click on the link to get to the blog:

Thank you for spending a part of your Saturday with us in mind. I am a new fan to your work and of the 5D MKII. Can you tell us where we can get access to the samples of Reverie? Canon has had to pull them from their site. What I am also greatly interested in is the sample rate of the HD capture codec. This is obviously a 4:1:1 rate captured by the 5D MKII right? In your work with this camera did you ever try to capture directly thru HDMI to get a 4:2:2 or possibly even a 4:4:4 stream? I’m no pro with these ratios and codecs but rather know they are important to geting the best image transferred to film if that would be the intended project for this camera.
Thank for your amazing work and inspiration to the rest of us.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO9JqzWyRbs To see Reverie. I find the making of the video ti very interesting. I really like the way they did the scene where he is laying on the couch. They use a slider to flash a blue screen on the TV to cast a blue light. These guys are very creative.

Also the high quality video hosting service is amazing, I wish I could find the link to where I can upload movies of this quality. Good luck, Tom
Super cool!! Not quite a pro at the photography stuff, but always great to see the best work so I know what to aspire to…
