NEW Feature on Pro Wakeboarder Jeff Mckee shot on Scarlet. What do you think of color

[Patrick Wieland]

Still tweaking and working to get the best image possible but I feel like its getting really good. What do you guys think of the colors etc.

Nice footage Patrick ,
i like the colors and levels , they are very natural ,
What glass did you use?

and wow , big tricks

 

[Nick Morrison]

Looks great. What did you shoot the interview on, looks like long glass. What is that? A 135? A 200?

 

[Patrick Wieland]

Interview was shot on 70-200mm 2.8 IS II at 2.8. Put him in the shade of a tree and bounced 2 large silver boards on him. One in front and one behind.

Most of the action was filmed with 24-105mm 4 IS. Its my go to lens when standing on back of jetskis and dangling out the side of boats. Also used 70-200 for action.

Very nice man , very stable shoots ,
My favorite zoom lens , Canon 70-200 , very sharp ,
Wish someday could afford a rehoused 70-200

 

[MarcoLomiler]

and the interview , it really looks great ,

Nice tricks. I would have liked to have seen more surfing just aft of the boat in the boat wake.

A couple if issues: at 3:07 there is a shot of the boat that really looks muddy (yellowish green) that just does not intercut very well.
During the 4 minute time frame, there is a series of cuts that look like you had morning, daytime, and late afternoon all intercut with each other. That is a sequence where you may just have to give up on the time of day lighting and just get them all consistent.
Then take one master frame, and use it as a reference to grade all of the other shots to it for consistency for a final grade pass.

Thanks guys!

 

[Jon Shaw]

What did you shoot most of it at 3K 48 fps?

 

[Patrick Wieland]

Ya most of it at 3k 48fps. I would die for 5k 100fps. Hopefully soon once I trade in my scarlet.

Some shots at 4k 24fps as well.

 

[Lorenzo Flores]

wow great video! loved the natural feel and tone. couldn't stop watching the moves. thanks for sharing!

 

[Patrick Wieland]

Awesome Lorenzo thanks!

Heres another little video I just shot and edited with Scarlet. Did some of my first long exposure timelapses with the Scarlet.

 

[Eric Santiago]

That was awesome Patrick!!

Care to explain settings for the time lapse at the end

 

[Patrick Wieland]

The final timelapse was 5k at 1fps with a bit of delay. Can't remeber exactly. I had the guy walk really really slow for about 5 minutes. Then sped up in post.

The action footage looks great. I was curious about the interview, why you decided to key light from the outside, not the inside of his face (toward the middle of the frame).
