Do you people behind the camera, use one 'picture style' for a whole movie, or do you switch them up, depending on the scene?
I have done quite a few tests, and showed them to friends for opinions and it seems that the best looking picture styles in my Canon T2i, are Landscape, and Faithful.
However, they don't look good possibly in every situation, depending on the light source, and contrast in the environment of course. I could switch styles as I go from scene to scene for what is appopriate, based on lighting sources. However, is this a bad idea, cause it may cause the audience to get pulled out of the movie, cause of inconsistency?
The feature I helped on last year, had that problem, the look of the movie was too different from scene to scene, and viewers found it distracting. I would like to keep a consistent look so would I have to choose the best profile for all environments therefore? I can do that, I just have to pick between those two if that's the case.
Also I tried turning the contrast all the way up in camera in both and it looks good, and has more detail. However, it may have too much detail as you can see more wrinkles and freckles and what not in actor's faces. But perhaps a good make up artist can cover that up, and its worth turning all the way up to make the scene look real good, as long as you got the make up artist. Or is too much detail a bad thing, and contrast shouldn't be that high in the shooting stage?
Thanks!
