Guest Relentless Filmaker Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 (edited) Okay, I want to shoot a music video on super 16. Its going to be a dark video with an Underworld/Gothika type feel to it. What Im wondering is whats the best way to light it and what is the best way to achieve that cold dark look. I dont want to underlight it, but I also dont want to overlight it. Is there anything special I should do in processing? What stock is recommended? I know they shot Gothika with Fuji. But, I dont know what stock. Normally I would do some tests, But I just dont have the money for it. And I dont think that this is a project that I can ahieve the results I want on DVX, maybe, but I dont think so. So if anybody has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks Edited June 11, 2005 by Relentless Filmaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Brereton Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I believe Underworlds' cold blue look was achieved in post. I've seen some stills from the production in which the colours are quite normal. I think it was done in DI, but anyone who knows better should feel free to correct me.
