About:
After also shooting BTS for series XI and XII, it was a huge pleasure to be asked back as main documentary filmmaker on The Promised Land. The shoot at Pinewood took place end of 2019 into 2020, and I captured all the making of it from the first day of production to the last, all in 4K, mainly on my FS7 but supplemented that with GoPros & other smaller cameras for specific shots and angles. Hope you saw and enjoyed the feature special Red Dwarf, and the Making Of films!
