CHOPSTICKS | One minute award-winning short film | Canon R8

A college student struggles to master his chopsticks.
GEAR:
Canon R8
EF 50mm f/1.8 lens at 2.8 with Viltrox EF to RF adapter
I can't remember what ISO, but somewhere between 2000-3500.
Shot in Clog 3
THOUGHTS ON THE R8:
This is a very powerful camera for independent amateur filmmaking. The camera has terrific low-light performance and terrific autofocus. The lack of in-body stabilization was not an issue, because I used a tripod. Overall, this camera is terrific and will do wonders for your film projects. I can't wait for my next project.

That was actually sweet. I subscribed right after the end. This short had a better story than some movies I've seen in theaters. AND TO MENTION that there were no spoken words. Great job.

the struggle is REAL!!

[@broomstick_productions]

Hey, everyone! Thanks for checking out the video. If you like what you see, please like and sub! Thanks for your support!

[@BrentTouchstone]

Awesome short! I'm loving this camera. I've only had it for a few months and I've mostly used it for photography. However, I'm getting ready to shoot a short western, so I've finally been playing with the video mode. Holy cow, I am stunned at the quality! I've been using my friends As7iii as DP for work on his film lately, personally I like the look of this a lot more.

[@broomstick_productions]

Yeah, I've really enjoyed working with the camera and I think the log footage looks terrific and is easy to work with. Stay tuned, we have a large horror film dropping and another big project this summer. All shot with the R8

[@therealjimmy5411]

Great sound design

[@broomstick_productions]

Thank you! We actually recorded no audio on set. So everything you hear was recorded in my basement 😂

[@heynow2880]

It would have been better if you went back into the trash for the fork.

[@broomstick_productions]

I like the idea. We obviously didn't think of that, but i think what we went with was still a nice little twist.

[@joking69s]

[@broomstick_productions]

Thanks for the catch! It was an adapted EF 50mm f/1.8. All the shots were shot at f/2.8.

If some work is not done by you then just change your work style ❤❤

[@greenlightstudios3469]

That's great, Didn't Dolce and Gabbana get cancelled for doing a chopstick video like this? :)

[@broomstick_productions]

Thanks, but they got cancelled because of cultural appropriation. There is none of that here. Also, didn't even know that existed, so thanks for sharing 😂

[@mfrenchcazenovia]

That’s how my daughter, born in China, uses her chopsticks. BTW, those are Japanese chopsticks.

[@broomstick_productions]

For what purpose?

[@nassraiboudi167]

[@broomstick_productions]

@@nassraiboudi167 We would, but the file is unfortunately not on the laptop I work with now. I could get it to you in about 2 weeks, but that's the soonest

[@dunnithful]

nice lol

[@InME-DnA]

Whats the message???

[@broomstick_productions]

Nothing deep- just supposed to be a quick entertaining flick. Basically, he's determined to try using chopsticks the right way, but can't. Eventually, in his anger, he accidently finds a solution

[@PERIKLISTSINTZAS]

Send your shortfilm to one minute short film festivals,it is nice! By the way how you find the r8 as it concerns the colors?I am thinking of buying one

[@broomstick_productions]

We've actually entered a few festivals already and are excited to see how that goes. As for color, this film was shot in clog3 which is the neutral color profile for creative grading in post, so it isnt a grreat gauge of color straight out of the camera. However, the footage was very easy to grade and the colors were easy to play with. I've also done a few photo shoots with the camera, and the colors are fantastic. The photos look great out of camera. I highly recommend this camera- it's a lot of bang for your buck with semipro specs.

[@PERIKLISTSINTZAS]

@@broomstick_productions okkk thanks for replying

[@broomstick_productions]

@@PERIKLISTSINTZAS of course

[@yshikawa]

Great and funny video. but this hurts the Asian side of me

[@broomstick_productions]

It's not supposed to be offensive- just the relatable struggle all who are unfamiliar with chopsticks experience. But I'm glad you enjoyed.

[@yshikawa]

@@broomstick_productions oh I wasn’t offended at all

[@broomstick_productions]

Okay good 👍🏻😂

[@laughingoutloud3713]
