  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

what t-stop were you at on what lens? You were at 500ASA correct?

If memory serves, a 1/24 shutter is possible. I feel like I've selected that option before.

I know in DV or HD cameras, 1/24 creates murky, video-ish looks. we see this on COLLATERAL and MIAMI VICE. it seems that filmmakers usually shoot in 1/24 in film cameras but digital cameras behave differently.

I'm wondering if RED looks just as murky or video-ish when shooting in 1/24?

*When I saw this part FILM-OUT at the conference tonight, i thought I saw that same COLLATERAL look to it. what is it? How can anyone tolerate that? It totally destroys the look IMO.
 
If you where shooting 1/24th @24fps on a film camera, there would be no shutter. Which is why it has a "video look" when you do on a digital.

If my memory serves me right, the most you can open up the shutter on a film camera would be 180 degrees, which would be a 1/48th shutter @24fps - because it's only open half the time.
 
right, in which at that point looks film-like on digital. but not 1/24. so why are the pro's all over that thing? it looks horrible.

In our case - it was a test - IMHO unless it means you won't get the shot - you don't want to be 1/24 - (unless you want that asthetic)

All the night ext. Suspicion stuff that Brian P shot was all 1/48 for that exact reason - and it is dynamite - and he lights with so few units you wonder why the hell you rent a 10-ton (or bigger) G & E package all the time.
 
no you didn't. But I did attend the filmout screening and I saw a part of this particular shot. there was a closeup and I thought I saw the kind of motion blur that you get from 1/24... i could've been wrong. Mark said they shot this at 1/48 and it was good. So I could've been watching way too close- i was only about 20 feet away from the screen.
