Interesting Special effect short film some physics students did in Netherlands

Interesting to try some like this out on park hill flats around in a suburb somewhere, also made me think about fan content, pretty good stuff sometimes, adding a story or collection of bits that people enjoy, Transmedia story telling i think it called, Anyway thought someone could or should do a redux copy the film and add more effects or narrative to the piece.

Robert Capa is another war photographer, who i think worked for life but landed on D-day with troops and took pictures, unfortunatly alot of them were lost in a development accident, but there about 10 left.
He used on the landing, 5o mm lenses that have definite focus, make things more blury in background and a Contax II, i also think some 50mm lenses have good aperture settings so you can get good footage in low or diffused lights settings
