THE SHOOT
Director / DP Jeff Berlin
“The Shoot”, a short film by Sony Artisan Of Imagery Jeff Berlin, was shot entirely on the new full-frame Sony VENICE camera. Berlin made the film shortly after completion of his film ETHER which was shot entirely on location with the Sony RX0. “It was interesting shooting two film projects back to back,” Berlin says, “one on Sony’s smallest camera, the RX0, and the next one on Sony’s new salvo into the exclusive world of full-frame digital cinema cameras, the VENICE…The Shoot was made as a sort of real-world test of the new VENICE. We had a full crew and we cast models with distinct skin tones to show how the camera handled them, and it handled them beautifully.”
