  1. Will be doing that when I'm there again, it was the late show so no key staff really was there to care.
  2. There was a right moving tracking shot that revealed a funny character, this did not appear because of the crop. People didn't laugh - they didn't see it. I have never seen a cinema experience be executed so poorly. Is this not... breaking the rules somehow?
  3. I just watched Deadpool 2 in the cinema, for the second time. (I won't post spoilers) And it was cropped. Cropped so badly. There are intro titles that show funny titles as expected. These were cut off, people were not laughing because they couldn't get the joke. There was a scene that scaled so badly, you could not see the character talk. When they showed a Breaking News TV snippet, the Breaking News title read eaking News. Guys this was so bad. I remember reading that Tarantino stood up at Cannes and said stop the effing movie or something because they showed the wrong aspect ratio, this is crazy.

  5. Hi! I'm looking for reference and inspiration material that involves car safety features, specifically commercials where something happens in one unrelated car scenario, and then match-cuts to a scenario in a car where the safety feature saved them. For example, someone is bungee jumping, and as the cord saves them from certain death, we cut to them saved by a car seatbelt.
  6. Better lighting, better colour grading, better cameras, better quality, 2 shot dialogue style cutting, ... and somehow that takes away from everything it used to be. Is it just me?
  7. I need to light a bottle, not really product-shot style, more like apple product-reveal/mysterious/edge light style. Does anyone have any links, and secondly does anyone have any tricks/secrets? I'm thinking along the lines of the foil bounce under the bottle trick etc
  8. Basically the shot opens on a beautiful beach, sunny skies, lovely weather, then we pan or track to reveal it's just a poster....... Anybody have links to this? I can't remember where I saw it, but I'm happy for references other than a beach too.
  9. Shooting 4K 1/50 on GH4. Need a tracking shot. Tried CPL. Tried defocusing but that only works when you're static. Is this a fix in post only issue?
  10. Is there any source to find famous director's treatments for TV Commercials and Music Videos? I would love to get an insight to some people's brains and their inner workings.
  11. Thanks!! What about stock briefs? For example... Travel and beach photos. Do people find a lucrative income source from taking on the briefs instead of uploading what they already have that is similar?
