From multicolored layers of chipped paint to a sliver of light emanating from a darkened alleyway, Saigon is a city of details. While the naked eye provides a solid lens, we’re often too busy avoiding oncoming motorbikes to truly absorb these minutiae.
This short by Vimeo user Blak Ray was filmed with a URSA Mini 4.6K Beta Unit camera, supplemented by a combination of high-powered Zeiss Contax and Canon lenses, allowing for spectacular detail.
Unlike many of the videos we post, this serves as more of a proof of concept rather than a plot-driven narrative. While it may lack in story, the film provides perhaps the most detailed view of Saigon we’ve ever seen captured on video — assuming your computer is powerful enough to load the ridiculous resolution.
