The obvious answer that comes to mind in this case is back-lighting, at least in the case of what the music video has in common with Moulin Rouge.

Would it be easier to shoot a still and use that in the film for a bg?

I don't know, if I had a some flow going, I'd kick it down to my people. At least offer a percentage, that's how startups in Silicon Valley go.

I worked in Navy Public Affairs in a previous life. Yes, get in touch with the public affairs officer. Emphasize your professionalism and they will give you the same back, I am sure. -
I just saw an XL2 for sale right next to a Sony HD camera, for exactly the same price. Am I wrong to thing that this signals a price correction after the holidays?

Hey everyone...
Douglas Sunlin replied to Donny Jones's topic in Students, New Filmmakers, Film Schools and Programs
Perhaps the question might instead be trends and fads. Direct overhead shots have always been possible, and have probably been used since the dawn of cinema (correct me if I'm rwong), but it has been cropping up in a number of films. -

Shooting first, devloping later
Douglas Sunlin replied to Timothy David Orme's topic in Film Stocks & Processing
I would think it would be useful to see the dailies to determine if you were getting effect that were after, before you consumed your entire stock. -

I will try to ask more clearly. If her face is in the water, facing down, how will her face be illuminated? I was not suggesting that you put a light under the sink. You will have to rely on light entering the sink from above and bouncing around inside the sink until her face is visible. -

Would you be lighting her face from above and expecting a reflection in the plexiglas to illuminate her features? -
Stylized Windshield/Car Lighting
Douglas Sunlin replied to Marc Levy's topic in Lighting for Film & Video
Is it possible that some of the ext shots of the car were done in time lapse as well? -
Underexposure For Night
Douglas Sunlin replied to Anthony Caffaro's topic in Lighting for Film & Video
Hey, that's an idea. If your character is going from bright light to darkness, wouldn't you start with "too dark to see" then lighten it up as his eyes adjusted? -
I haven't used Final Draft, but if I understand correctly, it's more than tabs. If you're in Word you should be using Styles instead anyway. http://www.finaldraft.com/products/final-draft/index.php

Shooting Martial Artists
Douglas Sunlin replied to John Nguyen's topic in Students, New Filmmakers, Film Schools and Programs
My largely amateur contribution: Don't make your martial artists go less than full speed, just for the sake of the camera. But I have seen film/video shot where the motion was slower than usual (for safety's sake) then was made to "slo-mo" in post which disguised the fact that the original was slow anyway! But it would be refreshing to see real movement that taxes the ability of the camera to keep up with it. This is one of my passions, so I'm looking forward to seeing what the pros think.
