Well, four weeks of long shifts and all nighters and the filming is complete!! I have NEVER experienced something so tiring and awe-inspiring at the same time :) Working with a film crew was a first for me and I've learnt SO much!!
There were so many exciting scenes in the movie that had my heart pumping and adrenaline rushing but I've been sworn to secrecy ;) All I can say is that you've never seen anything like it in South Africa! As much as we're relatively new in the film sphere I think South Africa has some awesome talent to offer where both cast & crew is concerned. As this industry grows let's all support those like Andrew Wilmot (Race-Ist Director in above pic) who are trying their best to put South Africa on the map. How can you do this? WATCH THE MOVIE :)

PS: My Canon 5D Markll rocks my world! That baby performed so well in low light conditions on set! I wasn't allowed to use flash, so coupled with brilliant ISO and decent lenses my job was a breeze. Shot mostly between 800 & 3200 with no noise... ever so often a tad higher with some noise but still worth the shot.
Also captured some HD video which will be used in the movie!! Best was to shoot this at 1/30 and 400-600 ISO (mostly at f2.8). We did some low light tests on the video and found that ISO-wise, anything over 1200 was noisy.
My 2cents worth ;)
