Born to be Wild Embroidery

Today I helped my wife produce a video for her fledgling machine embroidery business: Karil Custom Designs (Facebook page at: http://www.facebook.com/KarilCustomDesigns and her blog at: http://karilcustomdesigns.posterous.com/ ). Here's a short demo vid of her new Babylock BMP9 machine in action:

For this video I used two cameras: a Canon 5D Mark 2 handheld with a 24-70mm f/2.8 L lens -- a Zacuto Z-Finder was extremely helpful here. The second was a Canon 7D on a tripod using a 135mm f/2.0 L lens for the stable closeup shots of the embroidery itself. Sound was recorded with a Samson Zoom H4N audiorecorder. Final processing was done with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5
