The majority of this video was shot on a Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2, aw one of my tests for the review I did for Streaming Media Magazine. I shot this at full sensor, 4K Pro Res, and recorded to a LaCie 500 GB Rugged SSD. The microphone was a MOVO WMX-2-Duo, digital wireless system, that is also being reviewed for the magazine.

I shot this at full sensor, 4K Pro Res, and recorded to a LaCie 500 GB Rugged SSD. The microphone was a MOVO WMX-2-Duo, digital wireless system, that is also being reviewed for the magazine. Some B-Roll was taken with a Canon CX10, and it was edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2023.
