As part of Pi2, I've had video edit and shoot facilties for several years. Normally the work I have done has been re-edits for local TV commercials and some corporate message video work. But since buying the EOS 5D MKII I've been jumping headlong in the world of high quality HD photography. Finally I can do video that looks like I want it too.
So as a test of the camera I put together this little chess movie, based on a very famous game that took place in 1750. Like most simple projects it grew until I eventually composed and produced a new original soundtrack for it. My eldest son, MIchael, helped move the pieces around.
