Test Shoot - Dorian Dances Backwards

This is a montage from some of the shots that came out of a test shoot susan wanted to do. We used the HVX-200 and filmed in bushwick on Puertorican day.

Spike Jones and many others have used this effect. Essentially you have people walk backwards and then you play the footage back in reverse. They then seem to be walking forwards (sort of) and all of the world around them is going backwards.

Not positive of how we'll use this effect in another project but now we feel more comfortable with it and Dorian has ideas of choreography that would work will in reverse now having seen the outcome of this experiment.




The song is called Winter 2 and I've lost track of the name of the musician, contact me if it's you or if you know who it is.
