    DOP required - LB FIlm, London about Balkan Mafia

    in Jobs, Resumes, and Reels

    Posted

    Can anyone recommend a DOP (will use Sony ex3, Red Scarlett or Panasonic 301) and Soundperson for a fast paced docu film about Balkan Mafia i am doing in London - pay is about $80 a day + % of profits for about 25 days. Small crew only - 4-5. Of course I am seeking additional funding.

     

    Filming in London, UK - late 2009 or early 2010

     

    If interested contact balkansproductions@yahoo.com

     

     

    Thank you.

    Lighting Meter for Digital

    Thank you very much Mr Williams and Mr Koukas . Hence in conclusion a lighting metre is not needed.

     

    BTW - although slightly unrelated....

     

    - In your opinion what camera can you suggest in terms of best clear , sharp image for HD broadcast acquisition (Discovery, BBC) - panasonic 301, RED Scarlett or sony ex3. I assume the EX3 records 422?

    If your DP has to do lighting plots, set up studio scenes and he cannot be there, just shoot on a gray card and press auto iris to get an f-stop, then rate it.

    Measure the reflected light from the card with a spotmeter or reflex meter, this will give you the ''iso'' for this measure.

    Then use this ISO to set-up your lighting plots.

    Otherwise, Mr David Williams is right, just use the on camera meter. Especially for landscapes.

     

    I am not using the cameras meter though, I am just using the zebra settings or a waveform to have a continuity between my scenes. E.g: 67% on actors face.

    Hello,

     

    I am a fimmaker and wish to make a film and use the same camera to make documentaries for HD acquisition to Discovery, BBC etc...

     

    Any advice about which camera to purchase? Panasonic 301 or Sony EX3?

     

    Can anyone send me Discovery's HD delivery requirements?

     

    Thanks.
