Catching on to the colorful language I discovered when I started working on film sets was very
rewarding as I was working my way up the totem pole. I'm definitely stealing New York, LA, and Texas.
Btw does anybody else hope Fatty Arbuckle to Woody Allen catches on? Who would be the half apple
though?

Agreed. I think you have the source spot on. To emulate this look I wouldn't even wait for an overcast day. I would position my
actor out in an open field so that the sun is directly hitting the side of his face (you may need to wait for the sun to set for this).
Then, depending on how much light I'm getting, I would position a 3/4 silk or a china silk between the subject and the source of the
light. You may need to even out the contrast ratio by position a bounce on the opposite side of your light source.
I think this is the simplest way to achieve this look, aside of course from whatever you manage to do in selecting your camera settingsand whatever you do in post. Send us all some stills when you are finished!
Up and Coming DP Would Like Second Opinion on my Demo Reel
in Please Critique My Work
Posted
I'm 22 years old, I've been making films since I was 14, but it hasn't been until
just the last year that the level of productions I've been working on and my own
skill has really taken off. I've been ACing, Gripping, and Gaffing heavily for the past year
and DPing smaller micro-budget productions as well.
I just finished DPing my first feature length film, a microbudget feature about a group
of high school friends reuniting one last time to relive their glory days, a trite premise
but at this point I'm willing to get my hands on anything I can get. I'd like to share my
demo reels with you guys to get a better opinion of where I stand, what some of my
strengths are, what some of my weaknesses are, and how I can improve.
I'm open to any and every opinion, I respect the judgment of most of the filmmakers on
this forum. Please be frank guys.
