“Unmasked” | Short film by Sam KJ shot on LUMIX GH5

Unmasked is a simple story that pulls the LUMIX GH5 features together in a relatively simple way: a man escapes a downtown building, using his fighting skills to blast through the mind controlled horde. Shot in an extremely dynamic manner utilising body rigs and handheld techniques, the ability to whip the camera and weave between our stunt performers created an action aesthetic that is rarely seen on shoots using cameras with larger form factors.
A major feature was to emphasise is the LUMIX GH5’s anamorphic capabilities, which were a huge selling point on the GH4. We shot on classic Kowa Prominar anamorphics to achieve a cinematic and give our audience a clear nod to the fantastic action films of the 1980's. These lenses combined with modern cinema tools give me confidence that the camera really will achieve that filmic look we are all looking for.
