About Our 16K Video

In 2018, Director/DP Martin Lisius set out to capture storms in the highest possible resolution he could achieve. “I am always looking for ways to make stormy weather more immersive, to bring the viewer to the storm with me,” Lisius said. As a result, a 16K video capture and workflow method was created. Using a two Canon EOS 5DS 50 megapixel cameras, and a custom-built mount he made, Lisius captured left and right images independently, stitched them together, 300-400 images at a time, and rendered them at 15,985 x 5792 pixels in a “Panavision 70” 2.76:1 aspect ratio. “The computer processing was so intense, we had to utilize two external fans to keep our 8-core computer from overheating,” Lisius said.
