Very nice!!!
What settings did you use on your video? Did you shoot in one of the 'flat' styles and do color grading in Post? What did you use for grading and editing?
What kind of housing did you use for the underwater shots?
I thought it was very nice...the only thing I thought I saw in a few shows...what apparent 'wobble' on the outer periphery of the screen....like image stabilization artifacts?
Did you have a glide cam, or was it all hand held?
Very nice....I liked how much of the shots seemed to be coordinated with music changes...how did you get the timing right for that? I'm still trying to figure that one out with FCPX....
Thanks for posting!!! With all that I see on the news over there, glad you made it back home safely!!!

Thank you so much for your comment!
You are right! Usually I really hate digital image stabilization, but my glidecam took a lot of sand and became rough and bumpy - so I unfortunaly had to stabilize some scenes afterwards...
I always shoot at low contrast and high saturation. I think adding contrast in the camera just cuts out vital information like textures in dark or light spots... because the 5D III doesn't have a raw Video-file, I let the CPU saturate the raw image file before saving it onto my CF-card. I think it doesn't look that good when saturated afterwards.
For editing and colourgrading I only use the grading curves to ad contrast and in cases of emergency to correct under-/ overexposure.
I used the cheap DiCapac for common DSLRs ;D Was sometimes pretty scared, though...
The Glidecam was always handheld.
Sorry for my bad english... I am very thankful for your comment!
Best regards!
