I didn’t really plan on making a video this year, as I’ve been extremely busy as a film student and freelance DP the last year. However, as I couldn’t resist grabbing a few shots on my Canon 7D (a stills camera that also has a decent video feature if you’re a talented DP) while I was there. When I decided I would do a video, I also decided to keep it short and sweet, so there’s none of that 10-minute-documentary-thingy I did the previous years. To see exactly what I made, you’ll just have to watch it.
As I didn’t have a lot of footage, I used every last bit of good footage that was to be found on my CF cards when I got home. The video was edited this weekend, and the music selection derived from the flight to the UK. I was listening to MA’s newest album, Heligoland, and I figured “I want to make a video to this song some day”, and I was sold.
Ah well. Thoughts, thoughts, thoughts. Please, do enjoy yourself.
Comments are appreciated as always. Full credits in the video.
-Allan Hagen

Besides that almost nothing was told about the convention itself, very aesthetic video!
I was really amazed about the picture quality even at night. Thanks that you wrote what camera you used.
If you want to know more about the convention itself, have a look at
