From wrapping an outdoor shoot just minutes before a storm that caused widespread flooding, to wading chest deep in ice-cold mountain streams, this video about water was actually controlled by it even more than we were expecting.
When an industrial water treatment company asked us to create a brand film for them, we weren’t sure what to expect. But at Impavid, we believe that learning as much as possible about your business is the key to producing videos with a message that truly comes from you. The more we learned about manufacturing plants, paper mills, and the high tech research labs based right here in Chicago, the more excited we were to get this video rolling. It was only after scouting our first location to film that we realized how big of an operation these plants are.

The main character in this video is water, which is why we decided to film with the RED epic dragon. The ability to shoot at 120 frames per second allowed for some great slow motion shots… and water looks great in slow motion. We filmed with RED lenses as well, and were very pleased with how crisp the final video turned out. They performed especially well while filming in low light conditions, which we came across on our early morning shoot in the middle of a mountain canyon. Even though carrying a 12 pound zoom lens over your head across a stream that comes up to your nose is a little sketchy… it’s getting the shot that counts. Check out the video HERE
