| An unusually large budget for a tiny123 production, tiny123/Rick Wise produced, directed, shot and supervised the edit for "Tough Guys," a spot for CSK Auto Parts (Kragen / Chuck's / Checker brands) out of Phoenix, AZ. We came in $2,000 under the $35,000 budget. Darrell Flowers gaffed, Josh Koral crafted the hot-rod shopping cart, Blade Editorial in Phoenix finished. We shot HD with a Panasonic Varicam. Accelerated scenes we taped at 4 fps with a 240° shutter. Base rate was 30p which we think provides a better film-look than 24p. Certain segments we shot at 60p for full post manipulation. |

This :30 spot cried out, “shoot me on mini-DV.” Filming
with an Aaton Minima and just three prime
 lenses, we
pulled it off in super 16mm. Brad Burchill (agency: The Ranch) directed,
with tiny123/Rick Wise serving as director of photography, line producer,
post producer, and craft-services. We had one gaffer (Darrell Flowers,)
one PA-grip, and one AC (Rod Williams.) Retina (Gary Coates) transferred,
and Rough House (Roger Krakow) finessed post. |

| This :60 shot on mini DV demonstrates what a rich texture these little cameras can craft. While the images are not the same quality as film, they can be useful and good for the right project. Produced, directed, shot and edited by tiny123/Rick Wise. |
