Agreed with all points above, and if shooting s-log, ettr about two stops, see if that helps any. As for grading, let's ignore the exposure for now, the highlights have a yellow tinge to them. Sometimes people tend to make the blacks and whites colors other than black and white. Maybe if that's...

Going to mirror what others have said. In my experience (shooting basketball) if not on sticks, you want shoulder mount. Not sure why anyone would want a steadicam for sports-unless doing some sort of promo? But shoulder mount stabilizes the camera and when paired with an ENG lens, you have...

Another factor I feel is that the mountain is very crisp. If you look at the trees behind him, they are beginning to fall out of focus and as mentioned above, the compression is taking over. The fact that the mountain is looking pretty clear at a focal plane much further back also does it for me.

In addition to all the other comments, There is something to be said about getting the look in camera. Raw is a commitment. Now I love color timing, I feel it's a tremendous way to add a lot more to a project, but does your project require the advantages of raw? Keep in mind, there are well...

https://vimeo.com/155180307 Here's a short comedy film made with some classmates for a class last semester. Feedback welcome!

I enjoyed the visuals and poetic nature of the monologues. Looking forward to the next.

Congrats man! Keep us in the loop! What kinds of roles do you feel you'd like to portray?

Don't you forget about me sound-alike I was wondering if anyone had/knew where to find a royalty free sound-alike for the Simple Minds song. Thanks

I like that, very smooth. Yeah, this was my first time employing a kind of controlled chaotic shake. Suppose it could have used more control. Thank you for the feedback!

Nice. The best I've ever been able to do is this with 3ds max https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3HzL0RN8hA

Might I ask what software you used for the VFX?

Sorry I know nothing about in the UK, being in the US, but I must say, well done with Deception that set was impressive and CG bits were lovely. As far as this bridge project, looks to be an excelsior class ship's bridge. Will it be late 23rd century/early 24th, or later 24th? As far as...

Also Star Trek Continues is incredible. Their DP reconstructs the lighting and camera angles/movement PERFECTLY from the original series. Audio and SFX is on point, and actors nail it. Check it out, you'll think you're watching a real episode. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqBfJMOAgxpLooYH0WkLpmw

I mean, work hard on it, make it all it can be, but that attitude will help deal with it not being gold, and will save one from spending a mil on their first project
