The dog featured in this video is a Hearing Dog for Deaf People.

They do good work - but when they're not wearing the uniform, they like to let their hair down by playing on the beach.

Filmed on Canon 550D
1.8 50mm and 18-55mm kit lens

60fps 720p, shutter 1000
Conformed to 23.976 in Adobe After Effects

TECHNICAL NOTES:
The video on the whole looks overexposed. This was because the dog has very dark hair, and it was a very cloudy day.

This was compounded by the high shutter speed I was using (1000fps!) which lets even less light into the lens. With higher ISO it became very grainy, so I settled on that compromise.

I also had the camera on autofocus throughout - which is why the focus drifts in and out. I would have dearly loved to pull focus on the last shot, but the 50mm 1.8 doesn't have a very good focus ring sadly.

This isn't intended as an illustration of my self shooting skills - just a video of a dog playing with a ball on a beach.
