We had so much fun creating it – just for you 😉

Behind the Scenes

Here is an image my daughter (10 years old) took of me just after filming the revolution video:
I setup the camera for her, and after quite a few shots, we got on in-focus.
This was shot in the shade, with some shrubs behind me, natural light using my 135mm f2.0 lens and my full-frame Canon 5D III camera. The next image is the grungy revolution image that Johny shows you how to edit in LR below – check it out.
