Hi Guys,
I'm currently researching my dissertation on how the budget of a film affects the work of a cinematographer. For example - bigger budget films allow the cinematographer more time and money which can give more freedom, however there are always studio executives looking over their shoulder to make sure things are done the way they want them to be.
I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts or experiences on this subject or any points I can include within my research
Thanks

Shooting a student project on the Bolex H-16 camera, I understand that 25% of light is lost by going into the viewfinder. That means that on a normal light meter it has to be compensated for right? I will be using 250D stock, would setting the ASA on the light meter to 160 compensate for this? and then could I use the light meter as normal?
Also is there any common problems or tips and tricks that might be useful for me to know before the shoot?
Thanks
Will

How budget affects the cinematographer

Thank you for all the responses, this is really helping my research and giving it a good direction
My plan at the moment is to focus on the work of one cinematographer and look at how their work has changed through different levels of budget. I will try and steer my research away from which is better than the other as this is subjective, I am more looking into what effects the cinematographer within each budget bracket
