After spending time with in the cities during my first visit to Siberia, this time I visited the local Khanty people, indigenous people of the Ugra region of Siberia, located very far away from the cities accessible only via sled.This is a short film taken from a half hour that included some of this material.

All but two shots are done with the EX3 clean, using a Canon 20x HD lens.

Filmed for Russian Hour’s Ugra Time.

Letus Ultimate used for 2 shots.

  • Superb! Phil, you started a new genre in cinematography: E-motion picture art,
    where – emotions, Internet, music and the “science” of photography – all blend together!

  • nice film, but the small film you have running in the top right of the web page is killing the frame rates (2 -3 frames a second) and ruining the subtlety of the main presentation – well for me anyway. Don’t know if this is effecting other viewing this page??

    Would love to see it all running smoothly!

  • what frame rate did you use for the shots behind the guy on the snowmobile?

    Or was that smooth cam and slo-mo ?

  • Hi Philip,
