Our production company Big City Pictures recently produced a two-camera film shoot of the world-renown author and U.S. Poet Laureate Dr. Maya Angelou at home in her Harlem brownstone reciting the poem Amazement Awaits which she wrote specially for the 2008 Olympic Games. The piece is intercut with archival footage of great moments from Olympics past and will screen on NBC during its August coverage of the games. Also, we’re thrilled to find out that the Olympic Committee will be distributing copies of this inspiring video to each and every athlete to view while they travel to Beijing to compete — we’re terribly honored to in some small way touch the lives of the 2008 Olympians.

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 skateboard dolly with wenty 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.
