Matching Arri tungsten units to Arri M18
Chris Burke replied to Ryan Emanuel's topic in Lighting for Film & Video
Why isn't there time to test? I read that here on this website and hear it time and again from all kinds of people with varying degrees of experience. Test? Yeah right? I am not picking on you, it is just that this is an area where people think they are saving time and money by skipping a test. Big mistake. Often one hears, "We want it to look good, but is it really necessary to test? Can't you fix it in post?" Many different formats and cameras out there seem to make the differences in lighting instruments stand out more. You will pay for it one way or another. -
Both handle over exposure very well. They are known for it. A full stop over is no big deal. Daytime in full sun you really don't need overexposure, but night exteriors could use it. Presuming you are shooting at 24fps 1/48th and using the 250D at night, you will be close to wide open anyway. If you can change stocks, try 7219 for night time.

Young Mr. Lincoln (1939)
Chris Burke replied to David Mullen ASC's topic in On Screen / Reviews & Observations
I have not seen this film, but will soon. In the stills you provided David, it looks like Fonda has a prosthetic nose on. Is this the case? It looks rather good for the year the film was made, but doesn't look like the Henry Fonda I know. -
I couldn't agree more. Over all there seems to be a bit of a bell curve in play at the academy this year. I enjoyed Shape of Water, but Oscar worthy?? In my opinion Three Billboards was the most deserved of the nominees. Get Out should have had a lot more accolades, although I am glad it got Best Original Screenplay.

Aatons are great cameras. In the past there were debates as to whether an Aaton was as sturdy as an Arri. If they are, you can't tell. As an Aaton owner, I would say that Aatons are not fragile in any way. Arri SRs are fantastic cameras, so are Aatons plus Aatons have the one up on a SR by being much more hand held friendly like a K-3. Save up for one of those and if you are on a lower end budget, get one with an Aaton mount. It will give you the ability to use lots of great, cheaper lenses.

It might be the cartridge is jammed. A somewhat common occurrence with negative stock. Try taking it out and putting it back in again. That works for me. Be sure to take note of the film counter, as it will reset once you take out the cart. Beyond that, the belts, if any or gears may be jammed. The easiest and cheapest fix is to purchase another camera.

4K for very independent filmmaker
Chris Burke replied to Philippe Orlando's topic in General Discussion
smart producers ask for 3 backups. Some don't even know how important that is and have a PA clicking and dragging files for one back up only -
Westworld Season 2 trailer
Chris Burke replied to David Mullen ASC's topic in On Screen / Reviews & Observations
David, Was 5245 used as IMDB stated? Did you get to watch dailies? I got the first season in UHD for Christmas and it looks incredible! Really good! Great look.!. Bravo! Anxiously awaiting season 2 -
But as said before, blimping a K3 may be too much work for what you get, only two and a half minutes. I would look into other methods for sync sound. Like record an audio only take immediately after the film take. Roll audio for both, but do an audio only take with your camera wrapped in a sound blanket. If you can, have the camera far aways as possible.
-
Nope. On all the big shows I have worked on, the stills photographer always had a blimped DSLR. They all shoot Canon or Nikon. Perhaps the specs on a mirrored shutter cam fits their needs better.

4K for very independent filmmaker
Chris Burke replied to Philippe Orlando's topic in General Discussion
yes, you can do a slow digital zoom. The only real downside in the indie world with UHD or 4k is storage. Even then it isn't that big of a deal. It can be too much and or too expensive for some. -
No video out via Intensity Shuttle Pro USB/resolve
Chris Burke replied to Chris Burke's topic in Post Production
Yes, went into the setting and chose Intensity several times. Like I said before, it works fine with other programs and I do have a splash screen. I wonder if it has something to do with a software conflict. -
s8mm 500T w/ Canon AZ 814 Processing Question
Chris Burke replied to Ryq Peden's topic in Film Stocks & Processing
Which canon 814 az is it? Either way, they will meter at about 1/60. So keeping that in mind, it never hurts to go one stop over. Don't worry about loosing highlights, that is very hard to do. This stock it very forgiving in terms of underexposure because it has huge exposure latitude..... -
I am on a macbook pro 13 inch 9.2 running 10.11.6, 16 gigs ram, resolve 14.2.1. I get no video out despite checking all setting. I get video out with other programs like FCP 7. I also get video out when I boot the computer with Intensity connected, I get a Blackmagic splash screen. Kinda ironic that it doesn't work with same vendor hardware/ software. Anybody have a similar experience and fix??

29.84 gigs for ProRes4444 170.83 for 10 bit DPX only an estimate
-
super 16 is a better bargain. If you factor in the quality and ease of use and world wide acceptance of the standard, super 16mm makes lots of sense. Super 8 is a niche, and it is great as that.
-
I guess so, but would it add any latitude?

What will happen if I do this??

Rob, I have a 400' roll of 7265 that I am itching to shoot. What would be the benefits/differences if I were to process as negative?
