Music Video: "Green Light" by The Days The Nights

[joshtimonen]

This is a music video I shot for the rock band 'The Days The Nights' in March. I believe they're releasing their album "Radical Sabbatical" later this month. They also had a different track on the movie "The Wrestler" (that track was called "Her Name is Alice").

Shot with my Red One (#4809), a 20mm Ultra Prime (from IndieRentals), a few lights and a smoke machine.

Josh,

What was your T-Stop on this shoot... do you remember?

 

[joshtimonen]

The HMI light behind the drummer was so bright, I actually rode the T-stop by hand most of the time (more open on close-ups where the light wasn't in picture, and closed down on the wide shots that included the light). If I remember correctly it was usually around T5-11, with ISO 320.
