BMW i3 shot to pieces
An immaculate BMW i3 has been shot to within an inch of itâs life - we can report. In a quiet Bath City backwater, DOP Robert Shacklady lined up the perfectly innocent little car in the sights of a Shoot HD 17-120mm Canon lens and then repeatedly pressed the trigger on an Arri Amira. Some of his best shots came when he deployed the Ronford-Baker 4ft slider as he mercilessly raked the vehicle with one shot after another.

âI couldnât believe what I was seeingâ reported eye-witness Robert Momber (23)Â âthe more he shot the more he was grinning as if he just didnât careâ. Momber, who is now recovering from his ordeal in a nearby hostelry, captured some of the shooting on a Go-pro Hero 4 and we hope to bring you some of the actual footage as soon as it is cleared for public consumption.
Also present at the scene was Paul Hellard (38), a professional Sound Recordist and owner of Shoot HD at Pinewood Film Studios which supplies high-end camera kit to the film & Television industry. âIt was breathtakingâ said Hellard âthe camera is completely silent so we had no idea he was shooting until we heard his (Shacklady) manic laughter and we turned around to witness him re-loadingâ. Mr Hellard is also now recovering in a nearby hostelry.
More as it comes in...
