Fede Dupla

Hi all! I am shooting a short film soon and want some advice. It is a Night chase through narrow streets with very little fill. Budget-wise we are shooting Fuji 500T and have no money to test. I plan to shoot at T2 and rate the stock 800 and push develop to 1000, but I am not shure if it would catch properly the ambient light. I am thinking about rate it 1600 and push it to 2000. I will live with the grain, but what about the contrast, then? Any experience? Thanks!

Thank you all! Sorry for the mismatching numbers... We will make some test prior to shooting with 5245 and the options you said (first option slightly overexposed ISO 32 and, second option, underexposing a full stop and push in the lab). Anyway inside the car I think I will need the 250 ISO (5246) with the Enhacing Filter on and burning about 2 stops the outside, hope they will match in terms of saturation...

We are planning a Short for this summer in northern Spain, it is a road movie with lots of sunny exteriors and an "Old Red Mercedes" as another character. We are aiming for an "almost" reversal look with high contrast and deep rich saturated colors (reds, yellows and oranges: art direction wise). We would rather go the negative way: Kodak 5246 (EXR50D) and 5248 (Vision 250D). But we do not want a warm, burn-out look you could get with Bleach Bypass in the negative or the prints. We want a blue Sky and real greens. Appart from polas, enhacers and ultracon filters, and working out the colors in the timing... Do you suggest any other aproach? We have some Interiors as well that must match the overall "look" of the film... Thanks
