Thanks Tom. Glad your still watching. Our ratings are down a bit this season, with the move to friday nights, but the show has never been better in my opinion. Still loving the Genesis. We have been pushing the boundaries even more this year, and being able to play with different looks on set with the panavision GDP had been a godsend. Its just so quick and easy...

Wow David, nice research!
Im a major history buff, and such information I love to read. Am currently reading a book about the princes in the tower. Also have one next about Warwick the Kingmaker. A story that I would dearly love to turn into a film. If I get that far, Ill give you a call David. Will need a history buff as DP :)
Oh yes, noone does history, double dealing, treachery and bonce-chopping like the english! :D

Thankyou very much for such a detailed and informative breakdown of your experiences on the production.
I have found it to be very inspiring. And I cant wait to try a lot of the lessons learned and information gleaned from your posts.
Oh and thats quite a shiner you got there!

Guidance requested - 35mm exposure
in Students, New Filmmakers, Film Schools and Programs

After reading that Doug Slocombe spent a lot of time as a stills photographer, and that helped him to learn about exposure levels as well as a lot of other skills, I figured that it would be a good way for me to learn more about 35mm film exposure. Up to now, all my knowledge is digital, but I do not want to limit myself to 1 format.
As a result, I was lucky enough to gain from my Dad his old stills SLRs cameras (The Olympus OM-1 - example picture - http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/olympusom1n2/OM1LizardSkin/OM1nLizard_E.jpg)
I read a lot of books and writings by cinematographers, in an effort to try and improve my knowledge.
Do you feel that this is the best way to learn?
I could look at investing in a older 35mm or 16mm film camera, but my concern is the cost of film processing.
Your advice and guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards
Niall
