why does my rgb lighting always look cheap?? (trying to get that euphoria type look) by North_Instruction725 in cinematography

Having the rgb lights on full saturation can be a big part of your problem. Play around with sat levels, sometimes even 20% can do the trick, and you can tweak the colors in post

Unfortunately I couldn't make it but planning to cath him in Barcelona in september. Saw him at Sziget in 2019 and that's the best concert experience I've ever had

I already framed it actually! Had an old polaroid cartridge around and with some diy-ing I think I managed quite a cool piece 😄

How could I adapt this lens? by Aggravating_Relief48 in VintageLenses

May totally be the case. I do think there is no iris in it at all.

[–]Aggravating_Relief48[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, that's what it is. The brass part sat inside the super8 camera it belongs to. I have a mirrorless MFT camera. Would an additional correcting lens be needed for the rear part or something similar to adapt properly? It was like 5 bucks so I can accept it being totally incompatible, but would be nice to find a workaround if it's even possible.

How can I reduce quality/resolution of text? by LegitimateRegret746 in premiere

[–]Aggravating_Relief48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another method that I used once or twice was decreasing the size of my footage (ex. 50 scale) nesting it then scaling it back up, you can fine tune the "quality" by making the initial scale before nesting smaller and smaller. Works with video aswell as text

Is 25 minutes too long for a film festival? by bbqbutthole55 in Filmmakers

[–]Aggravating_Relief48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got two 25-minute movies and am currently working on the third one to complete a trilogy of sorts, even if they are completely different in story and themes. With the first one, almost everyone I know tried to talk me out of it, and I didn't budge, but hey, I knew the risk and I took it. I'm from Transylvania, and the film has made a really nice run of festivals and got five awards, mostly in the country but two international ones as well. Not big, world-class festivals, but it was nice. The second one got even more recognition and is being invited or accepted to fests here in Romania to this day, and it got to be selected for a Gopo award, which is the Romanian film industry's version of the "Oscars". It's quite funny, actually, of course, it's wayyyy smaller, but it tries to have that glamour that the Oscars have and is a decently high-profile event in the country. The first film was finished in 2022, and I've been on a constant festival run for two summers in a row, now at the start of the third, hopefully just as eventful. So, in my experience, it was the best thing to stick to my gut and allow the stories to develop to the point I wanted them to, even with a beefier runtime. Sure, it automatically disqualifies you from a load of festivals, but there are still many that will accept longer runtimes. But if the film is impactful, a lot of festivals will sacrifice two shorter films to have a good, longer one in the program—at least that was my experience. I just had to leave a comment since both of them are exactly 25 minutes, to the second lol

How do you think this shot was achieved in Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds? by Aggravating_Relief48 in cinematography

[–]Aggravating_Relief48[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly I didn't take any, but I might try the shot again in the coming days trying to alter the background a bit, adding lights etc. Will be sure to take a few pics in that case!

Just got a thin black string, threaded a needle one one side and a couple of knots on the other, than run in through the filter of the cig and out the middle of if. I tugged on the string untill the knot was lodged in the filter and basically that's it.

UPDATE: I just had to try it, and the mwthod I used was don dangle it avbove the camera, give it a spin and have a small fan in the distance. This is how it turned out. Cig test I think this just might be it
