You’ve seen the astonishingly beautiful photography of Philip Bloom. The talented cinematographer can extract exquisite high-def video images out of prosumer gear, as he recently proved with his much-blogged about visit to Skywalker Ranch. Bloom has definitely caught the eye of Lucasfilm, and in particular, producer Rick McCallum. While in Prague, Bloom shot low-light footage with a Canon 1Dmkiv that must be seen to be believed.  As a bonus, it includes a cameo appearance by McCallum, which Bloom describes:

Rick and I stuck with the cold the longest and we did some nice stuff in the main square, including the money shot…Rick eating a massive hot dog. Love that shot.
