I totally agree Martin. I do feel compelled to say, in watching the BTS of “Aging” you do learn that they had a large crew and used a RED. But those resources aren’t abundantly clear on the screen, especially to the untrained eye. You can tell from looking at this that you could easily do a project like this, just as compelling with a crew of one, a T3i and a black backdrop. I know because I’ve done it. 🙂

I was surprised how moved I was by the aging video — a real demonstration that concept and execution can trump all the bells and whistles. Especially if what’s making all the noise just isn’t that interesting. You hear that sentiment a lot, of course, but it’s easy to forget these days with new gear coming out every week.

The other nice thing is that it re-emphasizes the fact that these days the barrier to making great stuff isn’t necessarily expensive gear, but imagination. Everyone has at least some of that.

I’m glad you found in helpful and inspirational Paul. I was certainly inspired.

Really resonated with me. Often can get caught up in the hype of more gear, need a crane or a dolly. We need VFX and a huge budget. But, stories can be told simply and yet beautifully! Thanks for the reminder!
