Letus Comcast Sports Net Celtics Promo
This is a 15 second spot that ran on Comcast Sports Net whilst the Boston Celtics where playing in the NBA Playoffs. I shot all of these elements with the Sony PMW-EX1 and the Letus Extreme.
The spot was edited by TJ Powers on a Final Cut Pro workstation. He grabbed stills from my Letus footage and cut out layers to apply motion to each freeze frame. He utilized foreground, subject matter and background from the shallow depth of field in the frame for a really cool effect. He used Adobe After Effects and Photoshop. Check it out:
Special thanks to Comcast Sports Net and TJ for the help to get this video on this website. 2 comments to Letus Comcast Sports Net Celtics Promo |

To all who are interested:
Lets also keep in mind that some bokeh has been added in post to cover my tracks as far as cloning/healing the edges around the subjects and foreground. The DOF was not effected in the shot, but the Bokeh was made “blurrier” using this process. I only wish I had a bit more real estate on the timeline to allow the viewer to notice the subtle moves. In a spot this quick, certain viewers might just see them as stills and not appreciate the effect, being only 45 frames each.
@TJ: Thanks TJ. The new version is up.
