Chris Crutch­field doc­u­ment­ed DTLA’s event dur­ing Inter­na­tion­al Pil­low Fight Day this past April 3, 2010. Here’s his video, Pil­lows (Good Feel­ing).

Awe­some, dig­ging it. Espe­cial­ly the use of AE, the crisp­ness, and sound­track.

Video Details

Pil­lows was shot on a Canon T2i using just the kit 18–55 lens (turned out bet­ter than I’d imag­ined) and audio was cap­tured using the Zoom H4N. All the post pro­duc­tion was done in Final Cut Stu­dio and After Effects. Most of it was shot in 1080/24p but the slow motion sequences were shot in 720/60p and con­formed via Cin­e­ma Tools to 24p.

Thanks to my friends over at Red Giant this got some nice col­or grad­ing using the Mag­ic Bul­let Suite and some Trap­code effects were used in the intro sequence.

Thanks to Los Ange­les for being a crazy enough city to actu­al­ly host some­thing like this.

The music is by Pret­ty­Lights called “Final­ly Mov­ing remix”

Enjoy.
