  1. Hi, The separation light in the attached image looks subtle and I like it a lot. Can anyone tell me how would the DOP would have achieved this? What light with what modifier at what distance? :) Thank You, Maheshwar Singh
  2. Hey Thanks Chris and Tom :) I live in South India Chris. By muddy blacks you mean a black that is more grey?
  3. Thanks everyone :) Adrian what do you mean by political pitfalls?
  4. Hey, I just passed out of college and joined a DP as an assistant.(In South India, the production is little disorganized with a lot of mixed work) When I joined college, it was few months after 5D Mark II was introduced and there was a great amount of Photographers and DOP's making amateur(literally, not about the quality) films and photos. Now there's more competition than ever and being digital its more easier achieving good exposure and other technicalities than a film camera. In India, atleast, theaters are dying out and last year alone around 75% films had debut Directors/Dp's. With these things, Apart from a Individual's style what do you think will get a DP a good run in the industry? (I am just starting out and this is just lingering in my mind for a long time) Thanks and Regards, Maheshwar Singh
  5. I should be able to get a rental i guess. Thank You Chris:)
  6. Thank You Everyone! I have always observed colors but never minded the blacks... I should start observing the blacks hereafter i guess...
  7. Hi, I was reading through this website, magazines, and other internet articles and I find everyone talking about getting rich blacks, right from kodak to Cinematographers talking about how they achieved rich blacks in processing and Color grading. Am i missing something here? I dont have a good understanding of painting and arts. Why is black given such importance? Thank You, Maheshwar E Singh
