High-speed camera captures military bugle call in stunning detail

Behind-the-scenes footage reveals the meticulous craftsmanship that went into the making of the opening sequence of "Victory," the large-scale documentary produced by China Media Group (CMG).  

How can a single military bugle tell the epic 14-year journey of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression? How should the red silk ribbon flow? How worn should the bugle look? Which camera movements tell the story better? Every detail matters. 

A mere two-second shot, using a high-speed camera capable of capturing 2,000 frames per second, took two full days to film; the team's extraordinary attention to detail is a tribute to the heroes who fought valiantly for China.
