Hi Everyone!! Tim Cash from Far From Earth Films ( A division of Far From Earth Creative). In the final days of February I had the great pleasure to work with Ju Drum an incredibly talented Nigerian Reggae artist living in California. The song features Messenjah Selah and a slew of talented artists. We shot at some incredible locations on the north coast of California. In the video you’ll see capaweta, an opening drum solo from JuDrum. A tribal native in Stevie Culture, Jude through a cool chain linked fence and MORE! please go and check it out if you have the time!
Hi again everyone! Tim Cash of Far from Earth Films and Far From Earth Creative here in Bend Oregon. Well had the chance to put my new RED Scarlet to the test as it arrived just days before 2 BIG Music video shoots for Jamaican pop sensation Omi. We shot one of the videos at regular speed 24fps at 4k and it looks gorgeous! But the other music video I wanted to try something a little different. In the past I’ve experimented with variable frame rates for singing shots. shooting at 36fps and having the talent sing the song at a sped up 150% and I’ve also done 18fps. and had them sing to the song at 75%. when put into a 24 fps timeline each look is different but adds drama. slowmo singing or sped up singing. but this was the first time I decided to shoot an entire music video at 12fps. and have the singer sync to a 50% slowed down version of the song.then edit at 24fps. the result is a highly animated sped up look and we got away with 5k on the Scarlet! not stills but video. I’m sure someone has shot 5k video on the Scarlet but anyway….we are releasing the video today and I’ll be sure to post it up on this post as soonas we release it!!
When I first moved to Bend Oregon I was awestruck by the scenery! I didn’t realize that years later I’d be using it as a backdrop in music videos that would draw clients to Central Oregon. Now that I’m in my mid-thirties I really want to work closer to Bend Oregon and spend more time with my family. We’ve managed to bring clients to Bend from all over the globe including Korea, Canada and the Caribbean. Bend Oregon is an easy place to sell to people just send them a few pics of the Sisters, Smith Rock and neighboring waterfalls and they are sold.
Add the FARfromEARTH Film ranch to the equation and you have a recipe for success. located 5 miles outside of Bend Oregon on the north eastern side of Long Butte with scenic views and serenity the ranch is ever growing. We just added our green screen studio, lounge and edit suite and have future plans for a live-in private condo connected to the studio where clients can retreat after a long days shoot. We’re also working on an experimemntal garden as well as rain water catchment irrigation system. An oasis in the desert!

We want clients to come to Bend and get the Movie -Star treatment for a dime compared to other production houses. Sometimes music videos can have hidden expenses you didnt plan for like food and lodging. those can add up quick and end up doubling your budget. Our goal is to include all the amenities to our clients free of charge.
here are just a few great examples of music videos we’ve been able to pull off right here Bend Oregon!
