Kuban (video on top): “Bit a short video I shot using the Olympus OMD EM 5 II, last weekend in London.
Simply testing out the camera’s video and HDMI clean feed, I couldn’t get that to work, but the camera performed really smoothly, all shots handheld in a run&gun style, filmed at 1920*1080 at 50fps then re-interpreted in 25fps in premier.”

Stephen: “My 2015 Rode Reel Submission, filmed with two Olympus E-P5. My first video production, based on an interview with my 99 year old Grandpa who still lifts weights, lives independently, and holds a valid driver’s licence. http://www.rode.com/myrodereel/watch/entry/635”
Dustin: “Wish I had the lowdown on new gear, but I want to make a contribution of work. I use the GH4 for my video marketing company Idaho Studio, idahostudio.com. I was going through some of my videos created to test out lenses, I thought this one still shined. Feel free to share. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTr_Jvl-1pc https://vimeo.com/116029111“

Man that 99 year old man will likely live another 20 years with how sharp and lucid he is.
Thanks for watching. That is my Grandpa, and since filming last summer he passed his driver’s test and had a pacemaker put in this winter. He figures that the batteries in the pacemaker will outlast him, but who knows…
It is a bit freaky that he can remember names of people and everything he did from either 90 years ago, or what he did yesterday. He had an amazing life: grew up on the prairies as a wheat farmer, rode the rails with the hoboes during the depression to find work, almost became a pro boxer, was a physical education instructor during world war II, worked throughout his 70s and is still going strong. I need to complete a longer edit of the interview sometime.
It blows my mind that he was born when cars and powered flight were in their infancy, and now he watches high definition films that I create with a computer that fits in my pocket or we can see and talk to each other over skype.
I’d recommend anyone with an interest in video to record and edit some family stories, as it might be interesting for at least a couple of generations. I wish I had done more of this earlier.
That flame spitting tuba is so cool lol! or trumpet or whatever its called…
yeah, you can check him out outside the Science Museum in London,
This is a beautiful video. I love the 50 to 25 slow-mo. Gives it a dreamy quality.
Video has really improved in the OMD EM5 II, but so has almost every other camera in it’s class offering 4K, but the Sensor Stabilization is another other level.
