8K remastered "Element" is non-narrative 3 minutes film and it’s all about three main elements - earth, water, and air. From Norwegian fjord to lonely shores of Lofoten island, from beautiful northern coastline to rocky beaches of Portugal, from Icelandic majestic landscapes to Russian mirror-like lake, these elements are always present in each and every scene of this film.

I really like my films to have a slow, peaceful and cinematic feel to them and I stay true to it in this film as well. Beautiful, haunting sound score from Tony Anderson is perfect for bringing to life majestic landscapes.
With each film, I try to push myself to do more, and this one is not an exemption. In post-productionn stage I choose to move to a different software suite and learn it from the ground up. To go further, I’ve challenged myself to do some vfx in several shots.
Technical info:
- All footage shot on DJI Phantom 3 Pro, DJI Phantom 4 Pro, and DJI Mavic Pro.
- Several ND filters from Polar Pro were used for filming.
- I used Davinci Resolve 15 for editing, VFX, SFX, and grading.
- Adobe Audition was used to mix sound score.
- Adobe After Effects were used on several shots for additional motion blur and denoise.
- Original music by Tony Anderson was purchased at Musicbed.
- SFX are free samples by various creators.
