GET OUT

My brother made a little horror film in his apartment building and he asked me to create an original score for the piece.

So here it is, my first attempt at a film score!



And here is the film!

Blackmagic Cinema Camera

In the calm after last week's snow storm, we were able to test out the new Blackmagic Cinema Camera.

We used a 35mm nikon and the Kowa/Bell and Howell 2x anamorphic adapter to make this little edit:

Shot in Log ProRes and graded in FCP 7.
Music: Grouper 'Heavy Water/I'd Rather be Sleeping'

I really enjoyed using the camera and both the ProRes and RAW files look incredible.
Can't wait to use the m43 unit with my Hot Rod PL adapter on a production!

I have some DNG shots available for download here.
Enjoy!

Got a few minutes to play with the Panasonic GH3.

Here's the obligatory anamorphic test video!

50Mbps IPB. ISO 200.
35mm Lomo anamorphic. Hot Rod PL.
Standard all -5 (which gives a surprisingly flat image)

I think the camera is a nice update. Solid build.
Seems a little less noisy overall, and 800 and 1600 look nice.
No weird solid line thing at ISOs 800+. Dynamic range feels a little wider.
Not having the lcd/hdmi gamma change when you hit record is great.
For these few reasons alone I'd be much more comfortable using it on set.


And here's two grabs from a 50mm spherical Lomo.

Here's a look at a pair of short films I DPed this fall!
Both were photographed on the GH2 patched with FlowMotion2.02 and Lomo anamorphic lenses.

"Why Did I Laugh?" directed by Howard Gordon.
