Amazing Quality - Music Video Shot on Canon 5d

Video was great, very well shot and edited, and the 5D is still an awesome camera! That said, didn't look out of the ordinary as far as quality 5D stuff is concerned. Plenty of movies, shows and music videos out there do the 5D justice.
 
just another great reminder that its all about the person that is shooting the damn thing, we waste so much time talking pixels that we forget about what really matters, this dude is like the master of music videos, love the eminem videos he's did

It's the output of it. Export from Premiere to After Effects as a .dpx Image Sequence, then from AE do a final export as H.264 with a CBR of 45.

Will be excellent quality. Watch the short film Copelandia, That is exactly what he did. The quality is excellent.

What exactly is this workflow meant to achieve versus exporting direct out of Premiere Pro?

Incidentally a bit rate of 45Mbps is right at the edge of the Blu-ray specifications of 48Mbps maximum for total Audio & Video with 40Mbps maximum video so unless the audio is 5Mbps that will be outside Blu-ray specifications. It's going to be problematic playing on a domestic Bl-ray player except as a pressed disc rather than burned.

Just an ingredient that Luke Neumann (Director of Copelandia) uses
 
Actually I thought the video looked very "DSLR-looking", would have guessed 5D anyway, no video cameras have such extreme DoF.

I rather like the idea that the video shows that DSLRs CAN take pictures that have everything in focus, when it's needed. Something sadly lacking in most videos we see!

Irony aside, 5dmk2 should never be used for deep, detailed shots. The codec will break apart into a mess that, if unlucky, can hardly be consider HD at all. This is why 5dmk3 can be considered much more of a "real" substitute for a video camera.

BIG DIFFERENCE.
You take a pretty good, dancing like crazy, in a good location at sunset with lots of lighting and most cameras will look good.

That's not the way I thought about it, but makes perfect sense. Content is always king, thank you!
