Tyler, are the parking areas still open up in the national forest? Been meaning for a good hike and do enjoy it up there. I've been re-readying poetry. Also, as I love sci-fi, somehow got hired as a consultant for a little bit of money, on a sci-fi pilot a friend of mine is creating. Basically helping them with the more science-y things of it. Still trying to finish ST:Picard as well, but it boils my blood a little bit. Also have been cooking again, which I really haven't done much for myself in years. Last night as pork-chops in a dijon wine pan sauce, tonight is spicy ramen with mango roasted chicken.

Those two are Mogul base, though. Do they even make a Mogul to Edison adapter--- I know they have an adapter to decrease Mogul sockets to Edison but haven't ever seen the other way around.

You can't buy a Panavision, and in truth, I don't really see the benefit of owning a film camera. Like any mechanical thing, the up-keep can be problematic. I used to own film cameras. I miss them, but honestly, much easier to call up a house and get a package you know is in good shape and repair.

I wouldn't buy off-brand no-name lights. Save up, get a litemat, you really won't regret it. There hasn't been a shoot I've been on in recent memory where they haven't come into play.

We just went into Hiatus until mid-april due to the state of emergency here in Oklahoma. So... looks like I will be flying....

I have an 858. I hate it, only because it feel it takes me longer than with the scroll wheel. It's just my own pet-peeve (though I love that it's normal batteries). However, as for the touch screen; It's fine. As in OK. I don't LOVE it, I don't even really LIKE it, but its not like it doesn't work or has cause anything more than minor annoyances of "clicking" instead of using a scroll wheel.

Get higher wattage bulbs than normal (say PH213s) and then throw them all on dimmers and dim them down. That's really what it looks like they did in the image.

Generally, i've only ever seen/done it, at cost.

Agree with above; scraps are scraps.

Generally it's off of rolls, and charged by the foot. Were they sheets, I'd charge by the sheet if it's modified. But you should mention that before hand and get approval from production. If they say no; then sorry, no cut.

pretty soon all shooting will be as such: who needs a gimbal when you have your head. . .

We had one of the cheaper carpet style lights out on a shoot. Not my choice, but I was glad to see it. IT WAS AWFUL. The output was fine-- everything else was horrible and painful. And then the ballast caught on fire. And that was the last time they were used.

Did you try ghost loading the dimming circuit with say a 25W or 40W tungsten? Found that can help sometimes with the sudden on/offs of quasars.

Well then you need to think about what topics interest you that you actually care enough to write and research about.

We could; but you should honestly be speaking to your professor about guidance as they know you as a student better than we do. And honestly, coming up with the subject matter is really part of your homework as a whole.
