BLOCKBUSTER 😎

 

   
The incredible focal length range that this lens offers makes it very unique in the kinds of shots you are able to craft with it. From a hauntingly creeping zoom to an intensely comical crash zoom, the ability to maintain resolving power and aperture over such a range is truly something special.

    
     

   
One of our 2023 CBG Winners began filming in the last few weeks!

We are so excited to work with Adithi and the team for Young Claude and are excited to see their finished product.

The filming of Young Claude was temporarily halted halfway through production due to the SAG strike, which incurred many unexpected costs. The project is now fundraising again in order to finish post-production, and distribution of the film. If you're interested in supporting the project, reach out to Writer, Co-Director, Executive Producer Adithi Chandrashekar: adithi.chandrashekar@gmail.com.
