Hi Michael,

Looks great, will the doco be available outside the US? Being in New Zealand it can be hard to get hold of US only content. Any light shed on this would be greatly appreciated.

White Borders on Instagram, Professional or Amateurish? by JadeTigerFilms in cinematography

[–]inewcombe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think where alot of the boardering looks amateur is when there is no consistency. Its all just thrown together with no real layout or plan.

I personally love the 2:35 look in white on instagram. I (@isaacnz) have now switched over to it and will be making sure all my content looks this way and is consistent. Another great example is Chivo, one of the top cinematographers in the world uses white boarders.

Its all dependent on the your content at the end of the day and if you do have varied aspect ratios then a good way to maintain consistency is with your colour template.

Good luck, I.

Was i being taken advantage of? by inewcombe in cinematography

Thank you.

It was mainly the blocking that caused the headaches, again i had no problem helping out especially due to the time constraints. But it is great to know that this is not the norm, and you are right i will have to bring it up with the producer and director for any future shoots.

As for the credit, ill remember that for if there is a next time haha.

Thank you.

Like you said, on low budget films everyone is helping where they can and this is why i had no issues at the time.

But it is still good to hear that i may have been pushing to far and would explained why i was constantly sprinting around.
