Absolution | A Canon EOS 5D Mark II film by Director Ravi Vora

Posted on 13. Feb, 2012

Ravi Vora posted his latest film over on the planet5D forum (the nicest HDSLR forums on the planet) and well, it blew me away enough that I had to feature it here on planet5D.

A wealthy businesswoman must save her son from a criminal mastermind by delivering a mysterious briefcase while bounty hunters are hot on her trail.

Ravi has done a beautiful job with this movie and shows off the equipment on his blog post

Low Budget Filmmaking tips

Low / No budget film-making Tips

1. Location Scouting – For exteriors, instead of driving all over your city or spending all that time, use Google Maps Street View to scout locations. It’ll save you a LOT of time, energy, and gas. Just make sure to check the location you choose for any recent road closures or events.

2. The fewer locations the better – Getting people to a location is a big process. Making sure that location is ok with the film and everything else involved with setting up a scene is very time consuming. All of this significantly increases costs (opportunity, time, and monetary), so try to find a way to tell your story in simpler way until you have the flexibility and budget to move around.
