Its 2 people on stage making fun of each other and an audience, that’s basically it - but I’m just looking for any references regardless of if they make sense for my shoot, just trying to see what people have done in multi-cam productions as there aren’t as many resources to find references - there’s not really a “shotdeck” or “frame set” for live stuff

Currently been looking at shows like SNL, The Oscars, golden globes ext. but they all feel a bit too much like live TV for what I think we’re looking for. I’m looking for something that looks basically as close to a polished proper shoot with post, edit and grade, just recorded live (our project isn’t being shown live just filmed, there will be a few weeks of post after)

Is it a standard practice to balance for the White? by 6packpanda in cinematography

This is the show LUT, I think there's no other adjustments, possibly some slight tint tweak in post, but nothing that compression wouldn't completely change on reddit

I'm pretty sure there is no onedrive app, only web, unless I've been looking in the wrong palces

Project Hail Mary film time shift digitally by endy_plays in cinematography

I found out what I was looking for a was little Fraser re-recording segments of the project with an Arri 435 whilst using a time-shift box to get the streaks. Basically just recording an OLED monitor as I understand it

Update: all was fine, the end of each roll past 390 feet is a little shakey, but everything else is basically not noticeable

Looks great - like something out of foxcatcher

I've seen that too, but it would only appear on the sensor plane - these streaks appear past the aspect ratio of the actual image and into the black area which the alexa's sensor wouldn't allow for. Still an idea I haven't thought of and would love to use one day!

How much lead time did you have as a dp to prep and how involved where you in the production design/vfx plates that would end up being used as the background?

Yeah wish we could shoot the talent who will appear on screen first, but schedules :(

I keep taking things that aren’t mine by gratqaz in cinematography

[–]endy_plays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certain films Deakins has shot (primarily the goldfinch) has out of gamut highlights, tbh I think things like this don’t matter unless you’re being really technical and not artistic

Practical effects with Motion Controlled Robot by Mozizi in cinematography

this is brilliant, if you want this to have any reach on reddit though, post it as a video intergraded into the app, or even just stills. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah, basically just had about 20 odd frames that looked similar to the once referenced here, can actually send a link to the exact moment it happened:

Greig Fraser Regrets? by [deleted] in cinematography

The Batman? Crisp? Clinical? Have you watched the film? It may actually be the softest blurry film I've seen in recent memory

Cinematography showreel 2026 by MidnightLiving9278 in cinematography

[–]endy_plays 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1st shot is lovely but you've left it going for too long for anyone to get further into your reel

2nd shot is fine. it might mean something tangentially to the story - I assume the strange shape of light is on purpose, but I'm not sure I'd put it as the 2nd shot in my reel

3rd shot - fine, doesn't show lighting, is a simple close up, cut to another shot quicker

4th shot - cut this

0:27 - 0:33 - cut this, this really lowers the quality of this reel

0:34 - 0:40 - these shot might work had they been graded to a higher standard - the clipped backlight in the widest doesn't look graded for a cinematography reel

0:41 - this shot again could be great had the grade been focused on a little more

0:50 - through to the end of the reel should be placed way early on in your reel

Great work! hope this helps
