I had a fantastic time in New Zealand and recorded most of the trip using the Moondog Lab Anamorphic lens for iPhone.
A really interesting little lens that gives you a cinemascope point of view and makes everything feels more cinematic.
A cool introduction to anamorphic lenses before I start to use real ones in the next videos.

On the shores of the Andaman islands, a mysterious creature creates beautiful patterns in the sand. Who is it and why does it do so? This is a short film I made about the peculiar Sand bubbler crab. It was shot over a month on Havelock island using mainly Sony A6500 and a Canon 6D.
