Behind the Look: DPs Jon Joffin, ASC, and Mitchell Baxter Reveal the Power of RIALTO Mini

By: SonyCine Team

The music video for False Prophet by Pillars Of A Twisted City is a 2026 ASC Awards-nominated project that came to life at the crossroads of opportunity. Part creative endeavor for the band and part technical testbed, the project pushed the boundaries of what a small crew can achieve and the creative boundaries of a toolkit. 

To explore how much a small crew can achieve, the music video was shot by DPs Mitchell Baxter and Jon Joffin exclusively on the VENICE Extensions System Mini, also known as the RIALTO Mini. 

Go Behind the Look with Joffin and Baxter to see how they achieved their visual language and why they chose the VENICE Extension System for this project.
