Sundance Channel asked Big City to come up with a few example videos for their first annual “Big Ideas Contest.” This video shows off the simple yet amazing patented idea some NYC high school students had for a new kind of compost box. The spot was shot by George Spyros in 24p standard definition to mini DV tape using the Panasonic DVX camcorder.

Sundance Channel asked Big City to come up with a few example videos for their first annual “Big Ideas Contest.” We choose Green Apple Cleaners and its Founder David Kistner and its awesome CO2 dry-cleaning machine as the subjects of our inquiry. Our fantastic cinematographer Marcus Burnett rolled in with the Panasonic HVX camera outfitted with the Brevis 35mm lens adapter as well as a skateboard dolly with twenty feet of track. The spot was shot in 720p native HD to P2 cards. The slow-motion footage was shot at 60-frames-per-second to really catch the eye blinks — however, the comedic pace of the show led us to speed up the shots in post. As this is a story about a big green idea, we intentionally let the image retain its green cast caused by the fluorescent house lights.
