Last Day Dream

Beautiful 42 second long film shot with the Canon 5D MkII with Lensbabys. ¬†There’s an article on how this camera is a genuine alternative to more conventional video cameras here.
A Lensbaby, in this case the PL mount version, was put to amazing use by cinematographer and regular Spielberg collaborator Janusz Kaminski in the extraordinary Diving Bell and the Butterfly. The whole opening section (and indeed most of the film) is from the POV of someone waking up to find themselves almost entirely paralyzed and unable to talk, and the Lensbaby gives the whole thing a tilt/shift look that feels very organic and alive.
