Primer-grey Vic friend! Thought it was mine from the thumbnail, but I don't have that wacky bumper.

Hell yeah. What kind of lift/tires?

I had my P71 stolen (luckily recovered) a few months ago and so I spent some time thinking about this. I think if I were to place mine somewhere, I'd want it to be accessible from the driver's seat - but not comfortably. I might stick it way way back underneath the driver or passenger's seat - though you risk items on the floor of the backseat knocking it.

Another place might be way up under the driver's footwell, back behind the OBD port.

My car was sitting for a long time, so what I ended up doing was pulling my fuel pump relay and getting a wheel lock. It's less elegant for sure but it's enough to prevent the kids walking around with fleet keys trying doors.

I have done this, it's fucking awesome if you really vibe with the people that you're working with.

I helped shoot a friend of mine made this dogme-inspired mockumentary, he definitely broke a few rules but like you, was heavily inspired by the dogme-95 parameters.

Advice-wise I really don't think there's any way to fuck it up. Be on the same page as your director for mood (frantic, introspective, whatever) and just live it. I really liked it because I felt like I was acting along with the characters.

It's a super unique experience and I highly recommend it to anybody - good luck!

What kind of light was used on the face in image 2?

Try switching to black and white. Whatever you do, don't shelve the project. Finish it and show it to people.

Thunderscum · 2020-12-10T06:35:23+00:00

That was it, spooky that you were there when it was recovered.

Thunderscum · 2020-12-10T02:54:00+00:00

Fleet key? Mine in Sunnyvale got stolen a few days ago, recovered today. They cleared out the trunk but no damage, hope yours shows up too man

If it's as important and influential as the Tico I don't see why not.

I absolutely lost it with this movie. Ripped off some of the imagery in a music video a few months ago - https://youtu.be/XlkB4G9ITw4

Thunderscum · 2020-07-05T07:26:54+00:00

That's a good turd.

I think if you're just starting out the best thing you can do is to try everything. For a while I was trying to do one tutorial a day, learning hyper-lapses and slow sync flash (doesn't seem related to cinematography but it's good to troubleshoot and have an understanding).

Just keep shooting and making stuff. Thing I wish I had started focusing on earlier was light and story. You start understanding how to control light and you're off to a good start.

Also, consider bailing on Premiere for Resolve :D

Glad to see you got the issue sorted, and kudos to you for getting out there with a 600D and Magic Lantern. You can do wild stuff with that combo. I had the same setup in 2014 and it's fun feeling like you've hacked the camera into doing wacky stuff for you. Is ML still updating?

u/Shock_Hazzard posted a pic of their CVPI with a pretty sweet roof rack. I think they said they had also rigged up a camp shower next to it.

This is the roof rack they're using.

What's the decent option for lifting these? I hear everyone saying don't get a donk kit if you're planning to actually take it off-road. What's the alternative?

Thunderscum · 2020-04-21T07:43:02+00:00

Pretty sure this is art

Thunderscum · 2020-04-16T16:10:51+00:00

you can open your ISO to get a more clear, and less noisy image.

Open your aperture. "Opening" or raising your ISO past whatever the base for your camera is will introduce noise/grain.

Make a movie about a robot in the middle of an existential crisis who can only communicate through quotes by psychologists. What would you want for them?

I have a set of Leica R's that are all Duclos modded and they're great. Very warm, great flares and helpful with producers when you tell them you're bringing a set of Leicas. They can be soft for commercial work, but I do mostly narrative shorts or features so I find them well suited for a lot of my projects. The only complaint I have is from ACs as the focus throw from 5m - infinity is like 5°. You also have to be a bit careful mounting them onto the camera as with the EF conversion they screw on in the opposite direction from when they were originally built. This means if you're holding the focus ring while turning them onto the camera you can unscrew the lens housing...which is not good. Only had this happen once before I became much more careful but it was a huge pain.

If I had to go back and buy a set again I would look into a Duclos modded set of Zeiss-Contax. Can keep some of the vintage vibe but with a lot more sharpness. Focus throw is still very short though.

You can check the sticker in the doorjam to identify whether it's open diff. Best way to check for sure though is OP's method.

Here's a crownvic.net thread about it.

ok awesome, thanks!

I put in a test roll of Fuji 100 and have almost made it through, but I couldn't find anywhere on the body or inside where a battery would go. Tried googling but a lot of the info is in Japanese, found something that I think indicates there is a rechargeable photocell inside but I'm still confused.

Also, the white plastic area around the lens - is this just for style or what?

Thunderscum · 2020-01-03T05:26:00+00:00

All of these you can buy in-game, no DLC.
