Premium Member Brad Grimmett Posted December 4, 2008 Premium Member Share Posted December 4, 2008 I thought that was 10-100? -- Jim It is. But I haven't heard anyone say the "hundred" part in a long time. It's just 10-1 or 10-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member John Sprung Posted December 4, 2008 Premium Member Share Posted December 4, 2008 I remember on a certain job instead of doing that we just said "twist". It referred to the twisting motion. Why it got turned back into verbal communication, I don't know. And there you have a microcosm of the evolution of human language -- the very thing that makes Shakespeare difficult to understand, and Chaucer downright impossible.... ;-) -- J.S.

cressanne Credo Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Hey, I was wondering if there was a place on the internet, or a book, or something that has a definition for different names for stuff. I have heard so many things that I have no clue and I want to know. I know that this should come in time with experience, but if I get on set and the DoP asks me to get something and I have no clue what it is, then I will not look as good. So if you have any advice or anything let me know. Thanks Try reading these: Gaffers: Set Lighting Technician's Handbook ACs: The Camera Assistant's Manual by David E Elkins, SOC & Cinematographer's Manual by Steven H. Burum, ASC Grips: The Grip Book By Micheal Uva Hope these help.. Forgive me for not including more. I still have more than a lifetime of learning to do.
