Our idea of what jet cinematography could deliver to nature documentary was purely conceptual until this day in Monument Valley.
 
We targeted the back side of a small but potent low-pressure system that left the sky deep blue and the red desert briefly dusted with snow for a proof-of-concept shoot based out of Page, Arizona.
 
This run of about 17 miles took just a few minutes in our L-39 fighter. A perfect flight path hand flown by pilot Michael Steiger and the stability of the SHOTOVER F1 Rush gimbal system allowed our RED HELIUM to deliver an entirely new type of shot - the V/SPEED Hyperlapse.
 
We all have an inherent sense of what it would be like to fly like Superman, and our goal was to create this experience with real-life imagery. The speeds needed to achieve this effect are immense - much higher than even the fastest planes - and we have to operate knowing our acquisitions will be sped up many times with any mid-run corrections shot breaking.
 
Monument Valley was the perfect scale both vertically and laterally to deliver the first look of this new perspective, with a day’s worth of sun having melted just the right amount of snow to showcase mesmerizing terrain relief.
