Good old RED1 MX (indie feature)

[Justus de Jager]

Hello Justus, Some amazing shots you have there. Can you talk a little about what u used to lit dancing interiors. They look very nice.

Thank you Vedran. I can not find my original lighting plans but here is the full gear list for this film:Needless to say the HMI package was not used in any of the club/dance scenes. Only the Fresnels and kino's etc. with a mix of color filters. I have added some screen grabs from those scenes. Myself and the director chose the colours of each scene with the Finale having a mix of all the previous dance scenes and some added stage lights, an LED floor panel, 2 Baylights, and Maxi brute's in the background.

yes, and also which lenses u used? I'm a Red One Mx owner, too, and at the moment im figuring out, which set up is the best pretty cool stuff you shot there. Nice!

Hi Timo. Thank you.

I own a beautiful old Cooke 20-100mm Varotal lens. To compliment this lens I added some Cooke S4i Primes for this shoot.
Hope this helps.

Kind regards

Justus

I still love the One MX and use it all the time - never had any issues with it. Nice work!
