Director Jeremy Ian Thomas talks about his latest project “The Chrysalis”. Hdi RAW Works and Jeremy were able to get equipment sponsorship to make this short movie from Zeiss, Red Rock Micro and Litepanels. This amazing footage was shot using a Canon 7D in Death Valley, California with a minimal crew and even smaller budget. Jeremy talks about how critical the 7D was in the making of this short film. He also encourages other film makers to petition manufactures like Carl Zeiss and Canon. It worked for him. It may work for you.
