We are also blessed to have some stills from the video shoot courtesy of Kateb Habib, that we will be sharing on our instagram over the next few days:
I was a little apprehensive about climbing these steps with my bike, because it's quite suspect to be on them with a bike... so I was expecting the security guard to tell me to bugger off, but he didn't so we were able to get that scene and the above still.
I was probably coming down the stairs here.
Here I am with two hoods as Kateb prepares to shoot the next scene - it's quite amazing that he could get near identical stills to the scenes in the actual film (not mention the coloring); as the stills were shot on a different camera.
On the subject of color, I really admire the vibrancy of the above still - and if you look at the effect it has on the camoflage it really reminds me of tripping (and I don't mean over an inanimate object, though you might do if you were tripping).
Overall it was a fantastic shoot and if you want to know more details about how it went down you can check the post I made about it back in December.
I will conclude this post by providing you with the full song from the first song of the film's soundtrack...
