About HoldFast:

HoldFast is a company truly born out of necessity. I've traveled the world capturing humanity in it's highs and lows, and along the ride HoldFast, LLC was born. There's a recognized need for speed and comfort and an equally essential need for style. These qualities describe HoldFast, a company born in the heart of the United States of America founded on Classic Americana themes including style, durability and functionality.

My name is Matthew Swaggart. I'm a man of taste, logic and most of all faith. I realize these don't commonly mix but it's what drives me.

This is a video I shot in San Francisco with my buddy Eric. He was shooting head shots and I was there to capture the whole process on camera.

The video was shot with a Canon 60D with L series lenses. The only lenses used were the 16-35mm (mostly) and a 24-70mm.

I used Technicolor's CineStyle Picture Profile.

Post was done in Premeire CS5.5 and After Effects. Color Correction was just done with an RGB curves adjustment and the denoising was done with NeatVideo.

GREAT NEWS: I saved all iso noise patterns and four noise reduction presets for neatvideo so you can download them and load to your noise reduction process. the link is in this site thread in post number 10:

PAY ATTENTION:

If you think the person face is plastic or digital look you can decrease the amount of luminance noise reduction adjusting the Y slider between 0 and 30 instead of 50. This way the image will be sharper and more detail will be preserved. In this video tutorial the Y slider was set to 30 in the 12800 iso footage.
