Give Your Work a Stage on cinema5D – Talent Features

Give Your Work a Stage on cinema5D - Talent Features

Although cinema5D has been around since the very early days of large sensor photo cameras that shoot video, it has been four years since Sebastian, Nino and I joint forces and re-launched the site in order to bring it to what it is today.

As part of our aim to strengthen the connection between us and our readers, we decided to try something new and give the many passionate talented people out there a stage to express themselves and share their success stories . In this new initiative, we will feature a guest post written by you, every Sunday.

The post will expose you and your work – and how you got there – to the many people out there. The aim is to share your experience, so others can benefit from getting to know you just a little bit better.

We are a rather technical website, but we focus on how technology is applied creatively in everyday shoots. We want to know how you made something and what really drives you as a filmmaker to be creative and inventive.
