Hey guys,
I'm going to add some scenes to a pre-existing short film I directed 2 years ago. I have never shot(dp'd) on film, so I'm alittle hesitant.
question 1.
should I use the lightmeter within camera, or go rent a spot / incident meter ? It feels so strange relying on the camera which i will have to pick up and hold next to my subjects face to get a reading ...
question 2.
i am going to project some images (of the existing footage) on the interior walls of a garage at night -- then shoot simultaneously new action. Will the projector work against walls/floor/ceiling without a white screen ? will the images be viewable?
question 3.
Whats the deal with this 85b filter ?
question 4.
can you recomend some good daylight balanced film stocks ? I'm shooting in a low light environment -- and 8mm needs so much light -- but I can't find any ASA over 50 ... am I missing something with the stats of 8mm as compared to say 16 or 35 where 500 stocks are readily available ?
thanks if anyone can help
