The Evolution Experience
StillMotion is a small studio composed of a unique team of artists that design some of the most amazing DSLR films I’ve ever seen. They specialize mostly in wedding events but not limited to it and what’s captivating about their work is not so much the equipment they use but in how every piece they create tells a beautiful story in the most stylish and moving way.
I’ve spent hours looking at each of their well composed videos in Vimeo and I guarantee there’s at least one camera technique or approach towards filming that you can walk away learning.
They recently put together a premiere personal workshop called The Evolution Experience for those want to study and learn the craft behind the unique wedding films they produce and aside from the fee, there’s only one more requirement for participating and that is that “you are very passionate about what you do, open to new things, and very motivated to push yourself further.”
There’s a section in video that stood out for me:
There’s this misconception in our industry that it takes forever, that it takes years to become a better shooter, a better editor, a better storyteller but in reality it doesn’t have to take years. All it is is that you have to start seeing things in a different way.
They majority of their films are achieved with the Canon MKII, lots of 50mm, 24mm, and 70-200mm lens, all slider shots with the Pegasus from Cinevate and steadicam shots done with the Flyer.
My favorite piece is not wedding related. It’s the one entitled The F8 Summit.
