I AM VERY FASCINATED BY ALL INFORMATIONS The only printed information is an article on ICG magazine april 2004. Unfortunately , I can not buy it online in Iran. Can I take it by email or .....( scan of article ) Thanks

Thanks for your very good informations. But now, I dont know any use of DI process, or bleach by pass. Why they used hand cranked IIC ? Over & under in hand held camera work is for DI or IIC or.....?

I saw MAN OF FIRE yesterday on dvd .I am very pleased with artistic work of Paul cameron. In searching I can not find any article about cinematography of it.The only article which I know ; in ICG magazine is not available on line Do you have any information about the technique of cinematography? Negatives.......Cameras.......Process in lab........or...... Will be thank for your consideration.

Hi Chris You can read many good ideas in these books * Reflections * New cinematographers * Cinematography Screencraft Thanks

. Dear DAVID He push medium-speed for taking lower contrast ??

Also you can read CINEMATOGRAPHY SCREENCRAFT in John Seal chapter. He used coral & pl filters in desert.

Elect the best new cinematographer in the world . The best new cinematographer means who shows a creative idea in these 10 or 15 years. My choices are : DARIUS KHONDJI CHRISTOPHER DOYLE RODRIGO PRIETO DION BEEBE SEAMUS MCGARVEY ROGER PRATT Be thanks for your consideration .

John Alcot photographed BARY LYNDON in f:0.7 with pushing one stop. We have many experiences in low f:stop.I work many in f:2 but at this stop *Cannot see the contrast by eye. *Little depth of field can limit the actors. Now do you have any experiences in f:1.4 for a big sequences in film , with different range of lenses. What is your problems?...

Dear David How can I further information about this method ?? Thank you.

I means , we change time developer for PUSH & at that time changing PH may be reducing contrast .

Dear John When we push we want to increase ASA ,not decrease it (pull) The best way as dear David says is better to select low contrast stocks. But is there any idea about PH IN CHEMICALS ???....... Thank you for considerations.

I am working with SEKONIC L-608CINE . It is very useful.

In pushing , increasing contrast & grain is obvious.For reducing the contrast, these options are useful or not ? Do you have any suggestions ? *Selecting a low contrast film. *Using of filters like ultracon. *Using of varicon , or flashing. *Do we can change the PH of chemicals and reducing the contrast. Thank you.

Another best article is GREG TOLAND a master cinematographer and his work , by George E Turner ......American cinematographer magazine ,nov 1982.

Thank you R.Edge For your good explanations.

I read many about SUNPATH computer software & SUNNTO (compass , clinometer ) in ASC manual and web. Do you have any experience in it in cinematography? Do you think , is it very useful ?

I forget GIRL WITH A PEARL EARRING DOP: Edvardo Serra

Which films influence you for using the good advantages of lighting in outdoor cinematography? My options are : DAYS OF HEAVEN(1976) Nestor almendros SHELTERING SKY(1990) Vittorio Storaro

Nowadays don,t forget RODRIGO PRIETO

He used 5247 & push it. " We shot at 200 ASA with the lens stop between 1/4-2/2 " Almendros says . dear Laurent You see the picture attachment of DAYS OF HEAVEN ,this lantern is putted lamp in it and the foot candles of lantern is very high ,but now we wanted to eliminate the lamp and only use the real oil lantern How can we reach this high power of light? Now without using the lamp ,can we take this shot like DAYS OF HEAVEN ? I worked with kodak 500 F 2 without push don,t near this picture.................

It is a glass-eye(little LCD) that connected to videoassist .

Nestor Almendros in his book "A Man With A Camera" says he used lamps in oil lanterns in 1976.He pushed the films and took a good advantage in DAYS OF HEAVEN 30 years ago . I worked with kodak vision 500(5279) in F:2 without pushing and without using lamps in lanterns, but I wasn't very satisfied , with this realistic lighting of lantern .May be I must push or it will be better to put the lamps in lanterns. Do you have any experiences ? or any films or DOPs methods in magazines?....... I will be very glad if it is possible , attach the frame of lighting .....THANK YOU .

Good lanterns lightings in DAYS OF HEAVEN

I saw in AC magazine about CITY OF GOD .The DP ,,Cesar Charlone was working with Sony GLASSTRON , connected to video assist for better hand helding camera work . Do you have any experiences in glasstron working . Can we buy ? or it is discontinued ..........Thanks

INCREASING TEMPERATURE ,,increase grainines.
