In May this year I was asked to help finish Skambankt's latest music video. Skambankt is a Norwegian rock band and the name actually means to kick the shit out of someone, or to get one's shit kicked out ;)

The whole video was filmed during two days at a bluescreen studio here in Oslo, with as little props as possible. Everything was filmed with a Sony HDW-750P HD camera which has 1920 by 1080 progressive images in 25 fps.

Originally me and Geirr was supposed to do the edit, but it soon turned out they needed help with the compositing too. I ended up doing all of the keying and nearly all the compositing (except from the last sequence with the lead singer on the train roof). I also did color grading. The edit was done using Final Cut Pro HD and all the comp was done in Shake.
