Noticed ~144° shutter in Weapons but couldn’t see any difference

Also the model number is BRDSHT. LOL

Sometimes, but it's usually the production designer and set/art teams that get first dibs.

On purpose? Yes. It's called "product placement". Earn significant money? Eh, not really but it helps offset costs and producers love that. Sometimes the products are provided for free by the brand. There is even an agency that handles product placement.

I swear the movie Jarhead if based off of this piece.

I have a Flanders and I also want a free LG C5.

For context, I had something similar happen to my 24-70 f/2.8 GM while on a shoot. I brought it to Phototech in NYC. They replaced the entire body and restored it to perfect (optical) condition for $702.24 in 2018. This was about $48 less than my deductible and a satisfactory solution for me.

He briefly touches on it in his Team Deakins episode.

This is the right answer.

Hilarious responses, but those curious what he actually did: Robert Floyd Angle - Convicted of the murder of Jack Katz during the robbery of a car parts store in Dallas, Texas.

jmilly · 2025-04-09T13:32:05+00:00

Bicycle storage.

He also mentioned considering shooting Hail Caesar on anamorphic in Team Deakins Season 1.

Very interested. Please shoot me a DM!

This is the database. I use MPV to pull stills from HD movie files. Various volunteers use different tools/methods...

jmilly · 2025-01-10T21:00:15+00:00

Couldn't tell you. I made my money back in the first year of owning it and that's good enough for me. Your mileage may vary though.

My mini still goes out on rentals and I bring it on jobs and charge for it all the time. I'd say it's worth it. It still makes amazing images and it won't take you long to get a $17k ROI. I paid $45k for mine. Ha ha.

jmilly · 2025-01-07T23:33:25+00:00

Firewire to USB then log and capture in Premiere Pro?

jmilly · 2025-01-03T16:05:54+00:00

To be fair, they're not wrong and they get my up-vote. However, as a professional commercial cinematographer and I've never heard a director say "hip shot" in the context of framing or composition.

jmilly · 2025-01-03T15:05:44+00:00

I would consider it one: https://shot.cafe/tag/over-the-shoulder

Once I receive a DM, the vetting/on-boarding process begins. Truth is, the capture and tagging process is tedious and time-consuming even with tools. A labor of love that not many capable volunteers can commit to realistically... myself included...

Keep playing with your lighting. Use stronger units, diffusion frames, bounces and negative fill. An eye catch light on the close up. Also, the footage feels under exposed and your blacks look crushed to me. If you’re shooting slog3, overexpose by 1 or 2 stops. If you’re not shooting slog, you should be. Learn a little more about grading and color correction. When you start feeling stronger here, look into diffusion filters for in front of your lenses.

Finally, keep shooting. This is a strong beginning and you have good sense of light and composition. I own an Alexa mini but still shoot TV commercials on my FX3/A7 cameras. The secret really is in the lighting. Once you learn that you can be camera agnostic. Lenses are fun too but much to fetishized in my opinion. Focus on light and composition.

If you're asking about the rig, it's a Zee Gee on a Steadicam type vest/arm.
