  • 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 :)

:: SECOND SCARLET VIDEO ::

Really nice looking images. Looks like you took the tram (or whatever its called) to Roosevelt Island and back for some of the arial shots in the beginning? I did that too. they came out great.
 
Thanks Robert

That is indeed the 57th street Tram. I had to ride it back and forth 6 times to get the spot on the Tram that I needed for the shot :) Pretty amazing thing to have in a city
 
I was going to comment about that Tram shot..
I've got the same exact shot going to be used on a project I'm working on.. I was surprised at how stable the end shot were..:-)
 
Hi Ethan,

It took a few tries to discover where the best spot on the Tram for a stable shot would be. I had my assistant push up against me to prevent me from any shake or wobble. I'd love to take a heli around sometime to get some sweeping shots of the city
 
Thanks Kaan,

I had a very basic hand held setup using the top plate, a hoodman cover for the 5in touch and a back plate so I could easily press the camera tight against my chest. It worked awesome, any heavier and it would be to cumbersome to run around with. I am a photographer so using a shoulder rig is just so awkward for me, I prefer to hold it a Hassie :)

Evaan,

Can you show me the picture of your setup here? I really thought that a well rigged Scarlet is cumblesome for run and gun. I use JVC HDV101E for most of my work but will go RED pretty soon and the type of your works might just
provide the extra motivation.

cheers.
 
Hi Ricky,

Next time I shoot I will take a snap of my rig but it is seriously barebones. It's basically the starter kit with a top plate and thats really it. I bought the cinema oxide mics for the front to get ref audio and thats about it

Hi Francisco,

I used redlog film with a custom made preset loaded into the camera
 
Hi Gang,

Just updated the video to 1080p, cheers

Nice work. Evaan. Tight, frantically paced and hard core. Just like your subject. ;-)

I haven't visited Exchange Alley yet but I noticed that Gerard's partner is Billy Gilroy. He recently opened Los Americanos down on Church Street.

Gilroy's a guy that could easily give you more red meat for a similar docu (if you're in the market) and the food at Los Americanos is simple but sublime.
 
I really enjoy your film Evaan.
Maybe it's because of his black jacket but Chef Paul remind me a bit of Anthony Bourdain.
Well done, the opening from the aerial subway is stuning.
And thank you for having threw in some deth of field.;)
Best
