It's from a 35mm feature me and a friend have just finished. Ideally we need a london based colourist to help us out finish it. Essex Stargate is the name (pending MGM clearance - so probably won't be that....) -

Cheers kenny I dug out the manual and it appears the spirit has some fpn buttons, do you reckon it's something as simple as that? http://www.hawtreecreek.com/film2tape/Spirit%20Manuals/spirit_operations.pdf ?
-
yes it looks like Fixed pattern noise. What would you do in my situation? I've emailed back the Scanning company with Stills. Where do you reckon I Stand? I think they have a North light scanner too. I guess I could ask them to try on that. (though they say it will cost a lot more). This is so annoying. Do you know anywhere with a 2K Spirit that don't charge 50p a frame. These guys were doing 1500ft for 200 quid which seemed 'ok'..

Yes sorry, to Clarify I'm not talking about the scratch. I'm talking about the horizontal striping. Any idea of the cause of this? I'm pretty sure it can't be the neg as this has happened to two batches now.

Hi all, I have a question. I've had a couple of scans done by a company that has a Spirit 2K scanner. The DPX files when viewed in Nuke (or any other viewer) displays these faint lines in the background. (see attached). When the footage is moving it's not *so* visible but I assume this isn't normal as footage from a different post house never displayed this effect. Can ANYONE shed any light on to this? https://images.creativecow.net/221967/test3.jpg https://images.creativecow.net/221967/test2.jpg Yours sincerely Phil

Don't suppose you're up for doing the lighting on our shoot? It's on the 27th of July. The film is 'The Essex Starkey'. Silly black comedy sci-fi all on 35mm. We don't have much money but it would be a giggle. Here is a piece in Dazed and confused about the film.. http://www.dazeddigital.com/artsandculture/article/17503/1/chelmsford-film-society

Yeah don't skimp on stock. I made that mistake. Using old stock. SO depressing getting noisy footage back.

I have an Arri-3 - using it all the time.

Yes, the camera would be taken back to the car/trailer where the mag/lens change would occur. This should not be done by someone with no experience. I know the danger of sand particles. Especially with glass. All you need is a few grains and some moron with a cloth to scratch up your lens. Not to mention the impact of sand grains in the actual mechanism. Yeah I ment trash bags.

What's the most unlikely tool/thing you carry
Phil Thompson replied to matt laroche's topic in Camera Assistant / DIT & Gear
I carry around a tea spoon in my pocket. Comes in handy to tighten that screw on the bottom of the tripod plate thing. And i can stir tea's. -
While I was shooting Stargate we ran into many dust problems. I solved them with an elementary solution. The humble black trash bag with sellotape. Yes, I simply put a bin liner around the camera and made a hole for the lens. I think taped it all up. Job's a goodun. If you have budget, try the Hydroflex 435 Deep Water Housing. http://www.hydroflex.com/site/cameras/435deep.html Will protect you from dust no worries and you can go for a swim with it too :D
