BBC's "War and Peace" 2nd Unit Production Shot with Blackmagic Digital Film Cameras
(Fremont, California--February 11, 2016) Blackmagic Design has today announced its Production Camera 4K digital film camera was one of only two camera packages to be used in the production of “War and Peace,” a new adaptation by the BBC, based on Tolstoy’s classic novel. The six part drama was lensed by director of photography (DP) George Steel, and graded on DaVinci Resolve Studio by colorist Simone Grattarola.
Director Tom Harper reunited with DP George Steel (“The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death” and “Black Mirror”) and colorist Simone Grattarola (“Peaky Blinders” and “War Book”) to bring to life Andrew Davies’s (“Pride and Prejudice”) adaptation of the epic story, which follows the fortunes of three Russian aristocratic families during the Napoleonic War.
