DVI’s production and post production services include motion graphics, 2D animation, 3D animation, and visual effects. Recently, the studio created a video for client Calphalon, titled The Making of a Pan. DP Michael Hodges used several GoPros on the shoot, as well as a Red camera, and Canon 5Ds.
The shoot took place in one of Calphalon’s factories. The challenges included giving the space less of a drab factory look, and rigging cameras to capture the manufacturing process. GoPros were sent down conveyer belts in some instances.
The minute-and-a-half video was edited in Adobe Premiere Pro running on Mac Pros. The machines are equipped with 12 cores and AJA Kona cards. For storage, the DVI Group relies on an EditShare storage solution. The DVI Group’s managing partner Matthew Lopes directed and edited the video.
