BBC turns to Panasonic cameras to shoot their new documentary Snow Cats & Me' El nuevo documental del cineasta escoc s Gordon Buchana, emitido en BBC Two, combina las c maras de Panasonic VariCam LT, EVA1 y Lumix S1.
Las c maras de Panasonic fueron las encargadas de capturar las impactantes im genes del documental Snow Cats & Me, un programa realizado por el cineasta escoc s de vida salvaje Gordon Buchana, producido por Johny Young and Ted Robles y emitido en el canal brit nico BBC Two.
El objetivo del programa era seguir la vida de un grupo de linces que fueron rescatados, rehabilitados y liberados en los bosques rusos. Llegar a ellos no es tarea f cil ya que su h bitat natural se halla en lugares rec nditos y con condiciones metereol gicas extremas.
El documental,dividido en dos partes, fue filmado en Rusia por un peque o equipo m vil de filmaci n. Se realizaron tres secuencias en un per odo de siete meses para poder contar con detalle la historia de los linces.
En la primera sesi n, el equipo utiliz la c mara Panasonic VariCam LT, con la que ya hab an trabajado en proyectos anteriores. Adem s, sta era lo suficientemente robusta para aguantar condiciones clim ticas adversas y era capaz de capturar tanto la incre ble vida salvaje como la sincronizaci n visual de los presentadores.
Para la segunda y tercera sesi n, el equipo estuvo muchos d as en el bosque, trabajando en un escenario desconocido y arriesgado. Esta situaci n convirti el tr pode de la primera c mara en un obst culo y el equipo decidi cambiar a la Panasonic EVA1 de VI Rental Bristol, una c mara m s liviana y totalmente port til, pero que mantiene las caracter sticas en cuanto a calidad de pel cula.
Mi estilo es principalmente manual y reactivo , describe Jonny Young, productor de la serie. Cuando Gordon est interactuando con los animales, puedo obtener tomas de enlace estando hasta a 10 y 15 metros de distancia. EVA1 se convirti en nuestra principal aliada despu s de decidir que la LT, aunque fuese una c mara fant stica para la primera sesi n y nos diera unas im genes espectaculares- era demasiado pesada para correr y filmar al mismo tiempo
El equipo necesitaba una c mara que pudiera ofrecer el mismo extenso gamut de colores, un amplio rango din mico y los ajustes de ISO nativa dual de la VariCam LT, pero que tambi n fuese lo suficientemente compacta y ligera como para llevarla por el bosque todo el d a. EVA1 con el kit de montaje adaptable, el sensor de imagen 5,7 K Super 35 mm, una lente y tr pode Canon CN20 de 50-1000 mm cumpli las caracter sticas id neas para dichas circunstancias.
Adem s del kit de herramientas para el documental, el equipo tambi n utiliz la c mara Panasonic Lumix S1 para las fotograf as de prensa y publicidad. La c mara S1 fue m s que suficiente para estas fotograf as, pero fue adem s todo un descubrimiento; las capacidades de video de esta peque a c mara nos sorprendieron muy gratamente. Sab amos que bamos a necesitar disparar a los linces corriendo y saltando a alta velocidad. En algunas ocasiones solo ten amos una oportunidad para un movimiento en particular, por lo que necesit bamos el mayor n mero de c maras posibles apuntando al animal cuando entraba en acci n. La S1 fue una opci n innovadora para nosotros; se trata de una c mara m s econ mica pero apta para filmar videos de alta velocidad, manteniendo, a la vez, el estilo de la l nea de c maras de Panasonic , afirm Jonny.
Para los cineastas era muy importante que el programa abriese un debate m s profundo sobre el impacto de la cautividad. La cautividad est siempre en el centro de nuestros programas , explica Ted. Esta serie estuvo motivada, en parte, por la frustraci n que nos produce la creencia err nea y sin fundamentos, de que los animales cautivos no pueden ser devueltos a la naturaleza. Dos de los linces de este documental nunca hab an sido libres hasta este experimento del Dr. Victor Lukarevskiy. Sin embargo, finalmente fueron liberados, lo que es una muy buena se al .
