  1. What is the best way to light 2 or 3 people (a moderator and 2 interviewees) that sit up infront of a movie theater audience after a film screening. The theater doesn't have stage lighting. And we can't push in their key lights too close as not to block the audience's view or see the lights in our wide shot. I was thinking Fresnels from a distance? Softboxes are to bulky and need to be too close to work. Anybody know of a common set up?

     

    Thanks

  2. I shot some footage on an EX-3 for the first time in PAL, 1080 25p 1/50th shutter and there is very noticeable flicker strobing effect. But it's exteriors, theres no light sources, just an overcast day. I know it's not my camera because I switch back to 24p 1/48th, every things fine. Anybody have this issue? And if so, anyway to fix it on the footage already shot?

  3. I'm going to hazard the guess that david burdette is talking about the end of the '60s that most people associate with the decade (whereas early '60s and late '50s are stylistically similar than early '60s and late '60s).

     

    I don't associate the era with a lot of grain. They were shooting on slow stocks, with lots of lighting, generally at pretty deep stops. Besides the higher contrast of the era, they also tended to use a lot of zoom shots.

     

    IDK if you have access to older lighting, but I'd say things definitely tended to be "harder" too.

     

     

    What lights do you have access to?

     

     

    I got inkys, 1ks, 2 ks fresnels. teenies, 750 softlights, sungun, chimera, kinoflos, and china balls

    I'm trying to figure out the best method of lighting to give it a 1960's style. I plan on using lots of practicals. Any other ideas?

    Does anyone have any suggestions for filtration that will give the EX-1 a grittier look to resemble movies shot in the 1960's?

  6. So I'm the DP for a thesis film that takes place in the 1960's .. any suggestions to give it more of that gritty look? I'm shooting on a Sony EX-1 1080P which is hard because that camera is so clear and clean. As far as palette definitley in the warmer range: orange, amber, browns. Any filter ideas?, lighting techniques? I'm thinking lots of practicals...
