Have you heard?? There was Something In The Water this past weekend…
The festival took place in Virginia Beach and was hosted by the incredible Pharrell Williams. The lineup for the festival was stacked including top artists like Tavis Scott, Jay-Z, Missy Elliott, Migos, Snoop Dogg, Dave Matthews Band, Jaden Smith, Pharrell himself, and many more.
Complex chose to work with Go to Team’s D.C. DP David Difalco and apprentice Sam Caravana to capture all the spectacular footage. Our camera crew worked on capturing content for two separate shows, one being a highlight of the festival and the second being a fashion feature for Trinidad James.
Our crew filmed the Travis Scott performance, interviews with Pharrell Williams and Girl Blunt, and captured fashionable B-roll of concert attendees’ outfits and shoes.
Our D.C. DP, David Difalco used a Sony F5 with a 24-70mm Canon L Series Lens for the primary camera and a Sony a7Sii as a wide angle shot with a 16-35mm Canon L Series Lens. The crew used the F5 to specifically capture interviews. This camera is more nimble and allowed the crew to easily manipulate natural light through different angles.
Our crew’s favorite part about the shoot was spending time with Pharrell during his interviews.
“Pharrell is one of the most genuine people you could meet. He was so gracious to us and was an incredible person to interview.” – David DiFalco
Thank you to Complex for choosing Go To Team’s DP to capture this unique footage. We look forward to working with you on future projects!
