Joanna St. Claire and I just finished the music video for "Prayer of Light" and released the single on iTunes.

I will be writing an article on the production soon!
And here is the song link!

YouTube version (1080P)
Standard Vimeo (1280P but possibly better compression than YouTube)
VK mentioned that maybe I should add embeds here. I'll be happy to that if people wanted, but was trying to keep the thread compact and clean for feedback (with the videos and explanations on the blog).
Just let me know what you guys want. :)
Woah, I got a really retro filmic vibe from that. It was very consistent with the editing, nice work!
Thanks. Joanna is looking over my shoulder and said "that's wild". :)
Okay, just added about a thousand words on making the song and the video. Open to adding more, so leave comments about what additional info. you would like.

is that supposed to say 85mm in the description? theres no 58 rokinon
@joydb "MC Rokkor-PF 1:14 f=58mm serial xxxxxxx Minolta Lens Made in Japan"
The lens is very definitely 58mm, not 85mm.
EDIT: I'll start getting the name right. :)
Rokkor lenses are also sold under many other names including Samyang.Personally, tend to say "Rokinon" rather than "Rokkor"
This is wrong. Sanyang is lens producer, and Rokinon is one of it distributors brands. Rokkor has no relation to them, zero.
I stand corrected. [Edit: Twice].
Rokkor was the name of classical Minolta lenses, named after a mountain behind their factory.
There is a Rokkor 58mm 1.2, a beautiful lens of heavy metal and glass, working smooth after 50 years and with some of the best Bokeh in photographic glass. Highly sought after on Ebay.
P. S. Did you guess I have one? ;-)
@Nomad I seem to remember that version is supposed to be even more desirable than the f/1.4. :) In any case, I really enjoy the lens.
