At the end of September we undertook a project for Torque Racing in Barcelona, Spain, to film for the McLaren Trophy at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. The McLaren Trophy is a new championship created by McLaren where drivers race identical cars, be it the Artura Trophy or 570s Trophy, so the focus is on the skills of the driver.
We captured social media video content across the circuit, in the garages, grid, pit lane and hospitality suite and interviews with drivers and team managers.
We needed to be able to supply content that could be used in both horizontal videos for YouTube and vertical videos for instagram so we decided to shoot everything in 4K so it could easily work for both.
Footage was filmed on the Sony A7SIII with the DJI RS 3 Handheld Gimbal and some additional trackside footage captured on the Sony PXW-Z190.
