Brilliant thanks for the insights everyone!

Hi Everyone,

I have finished the colour grade on a short film and afterwards, have spotted some shots used with a certain camera throughout the production that have dead pixels. I have scanned through the dailies and can confirm they are present from the day they were shot - so this is nothing to do with any post production or data transfer.

My question is whether or not it would be worth trying to fix - or just leave it and hope the majority of viewers wont notice. As I want to avoid any possible degradation and compression of the overall image during the post pipeline.

It just might be a bit more obvious on the big screen as this is not a 4K delivery.

Any thoughts and experience greatly appreciated.

I noticed a couple over exposed daylight shots with some red-hair old lady, I'd take those out. Other than that, most of the shots seem fine.

Thanks, Macks Fiiod! I'll take another look at that.

Hi everyone, so this is the first showreel i have produced that shows all my favourite imagery while working as a DP and/or Operator.

I think i am still trying to develop my skills by taking on varied genres and ideas - using aspect ratio, lighting, composition and movement to tell stories.

I would love to hear from cinematographers what you think of the work so far, as well as what constructive criticism you have to offer.
