Music Video road testing a 550D (t2i)

[Schmeknicolor]

Here's a music video i made about 2 months ago with my 550D and some old cheap lenses, two Chinon PK mount 50mm f1.7 and 28mm f2.8, a Helios 58mm f2 and a L series lens that (i don't remember which one) was used in 1 shot of the old man hands.
I used a cheap Gliders shoulder support and for the "crane" shots a polecam was used.
Check it out, thanks.

I really loved the music video. Great camera movement. The main reasons I loved it was the subjects in the video. Very interesting faces and textures. Great colors. Just wondering what you used to color grade?

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
I just used the shoulder support all the time, we had 2 days for shooting the video and the weather wasn't what we needed in the first day, so we had to reshoot many things in the second day, it was like a guerrilla style shooting. The shoulder is this one http://cgi.ebay.com/GLIDERS-Shoulder-Support-Rig-fr-DSLR-hv20-pd170-vx2100-/130438259343?pt=AU_Cameras_Photographic_Accessories&hash=item1e5eb9e28f, it's cheap but fairly good.
In post i've done a basic color grading in Apple Color, and then moved it to After Effects where i used Color Finesse and add some customized Boris Lens Flare effects.
