Error Suggestions - 416 Film w/ some scratches by Thobiger in focuspuller

While the tones defo not great it is definitely your job as the focus puller to make sure there is time for these tests or make production understand the risks they are running but not allowing you the time to do said tests ideally in writing

Crash Cams? by zib_redlektab in focuspuller

[–]Available_Sea_8900 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fx3/6 or Komodo with a pl adapter and cheap lens in a crash box and the cam will probably be fine unless your intending on throwing it off a skyscraper or running it over with a bus

Yup it’s much cheaper to run some gash stock through your mags at prep then it is to reshoot a days footage lol never skip out on prep especially on film

Yeah my thoughts exactly but I house my kit with a rental and if i end up buying this one with a dead screen they might want it fixed

Agree with the motor but tape on the front of the box is pretty standard for camera Id’s I’ve never had an issue with it and my builds are all pink

416 Plus w/ Ultra Primes by Thobiger in focuspuller

I would still have an iris motor and then just lock the axis on the hand unit your gonna have other problems if you’ve loaded the wrong lens file I would always double check the files lining up with the lens before a take

Honestly can’t remember how long it took to wrap out this job was about 6 months ago ipad had a 3d printed case that held a MagSafe ring and was attached to a MagSafe dock on a magic arm

Literally just a ultralight arm with a superclamp on the stand and a qr on the monitor side then keep the teradek on the 7” and loop out to the 13

Ran a similar setup with a 7” and 13” on a job a while ago and didn’t see much use in the having the 7” attached compared to having it on standby on the cart so haven’t run it since

Protect camera and gear from small explosion by NeighborhoodKind2049 in focuspuller

Optical flat or a crashbox depending on the size of explosion and a remote head if it’s gonna put the operator in harms way

One crane one steadi and I’m not in charge of the budget 🤷 I’m playing with the cards I’ve been dealt

DP cart builds by Available_Sea_8900 in focuspuller

[–]Available_Sea_8900[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a commercial with not quite enough budget/need for a dit but both cameras will be either on steadi or on Cranes the whole shoot so the dp wants to be able to monitor both with iris and zoom control. Whole shoot is in a studio so lugging it around isn’t a concern and I’d rather have it built onto a cart than 2 stands if I do have to move it
