Lumix GH5S - Southsea Skatepark

Filmed with the new Lumix GH5S.

I wanted to test out how well the camera worked in low light and there was nowhere better than on my doorstep than the skatepark in my hometown of Southsea. The guys at the Southsea Skatepark were kind enough to allow us to come and film with Oakley and Jak. The boys were great to shoot with and it was awesome to see how much everyone down the skatepark loves the place and what they do day to day there.

I generally filmed at the 2500 native ISO with the Lumix 12mm and a mixture of 24p and 60p frame rates in camera and to the Atomos Ninja Inferno. The images are stunning and I was blown away with how well the camera performed in the night. There is no de-noise software used in this edit and is pretty much straight out of the camera with a couple of minor tweaks. We also didn't use any additional lighting in any of the shots. Almost all shots were filmed using a gimbal and an electric skateboard for the opening shots. I filmed a few additional aerial shots with the DJI Inspire with the X5 / 15mm lens.

Special thanks to Effraim and his colleagues down at the skatepark for allowing us to film there. And thanks to James Sharp and Luke Raistrick for helping out with the BTS shots on the day.
