I would suggest film gamma 1, knee off and 30p if it's going to stay on video and 24p if you are going to actual film. Good luck!

I agree with Stephen and would further recommend you consider Detail OFF for a natural, artifact free, filmic look. If you are using more than one lens, check your white shading and consider doing manual adjustment

as the 450 does not have auto white shading. You might also experiment with Knee Saturation if you choose

to use the Knee circuit, but it should be used carefully, just like Knee Point and Slope to avoid compression of

flesh tones and phony saturation in same.
