omg tysm mercer ? this project is easier than it sounds, i swear ? its all abt planning tbh. i get that now smartphones 4 sure!!! the aesthetic is like 2019 blair witch kinda, with a light ~on the camera~ spooky!!! weird!! ??? lolol

@HockeyFan12 tysm for your indepth response, i rlly appreciate it in a word, youre full of good ideas, and im going to research your post at length. my only thoughts to add, as i continue to suss this thing out, are: 1) fancy dimmer thing is awesome, but expensive. i went to my would be location last night (in the dark, right?), and set up a couple lil battery powered led lights with gels. WELL! it works great in that space, and its all BATTERY POWERED. im SUPER into that rn. i dont need a generator for this shoot, and the more we can reduce the size of our footprint as a crew, the better. therefore: seen these...? could be v effective, cuz i could get lots of em... hide them, or not, and vfx some fire on there later 2) im gonna grade the heck outta this. strong color, with a warm and dark side (fire/moonlight). so... theres that. im not going for naturalistic color at all, fyi. makes life easy lol 3) and fog! yeah... some haze will be going thru the frame almost all the time, roughening things up nicely tysm again hockeyfan ❤️?? will be workin on this~!

hey broskis~! sooo, im doin a thing with VFX... wow~!!! imagine that i ~kinda~ know what im doing...? i mean i sure know what i CANT do lol i want to light a DARK SET, a set that does NOT light the actors fully, like this with some additional orange lights to simulate fire glow, and i will then add fire vfx elements in AE to go with the actual small practical fire on set thats the plan!!! whaddya u guys think?? sound ok? i specifically would like advice on how to light for fire vfx elements added in post halp!!! ?

i dont even like metallic but im obsessed w this cover rn its a rendition of an old irish folk song i think always natalie aaaand i had a rlly good time watching this this morning.... MUD FIGHT!!!!

my take is: im not a fan of switching aspect ratios, but NO ONE NOTICES BESIDES US case in point: the dark knight nolan films, going from letterboxed 2.39 to 16x9 imax footage at will, with no apologies~! i ask my friends... "Did you notice that...?" They ALL say no. except for the DPs lolol

well said @Andrew Reid

guys: 24fps is absent from these cameras bc it was just missing like... ever misplace your keys? or your phone? THATS WHAT HAPPENED!!! they just couldnt find EVERYBODYS FKN FAVORITE FRAME RATE sounds like willy wonka is running canon smfh. this is UNREAL

mentally ill = funny name a hilarious comedian who is 100% sane...? zach, im crazy too, believe me. its not easy. but im also funny af and u gotta think thats part of it, u kno? dont worry man, youre in GREAT company...!

@Turboguard i make an LLC for EVERY creative endeavor. therefore, i become an employee of myself, and pay myself a reasonable salary. the rest of the $ stays in the business ? https://www.legalzoom.com/articles/why-do-film-companies-form-an-llc-for-a-movie

thats cool, just dont apply for a job in p*rn then bc theyll be like Wtf dude

the problem is thats not u tho. thats your ~fantasy~ of yourself. what do you look like in this fantasy world? shawn michaels? so, its a cool idea~! you should be a conceptual artist frankly, ill reiterate: the lowkey condescending horseshit you spew on this board is based in an autistic fantasy world where you wouldnt run from me irl, like so many do. Sad! happens all the time. ppl i want to hire. is it the water???? #facts P.S. This is you. This is real https://www.instagram.com/path88productions/ you have zero 'wisdom' fyi

k i kno that lol. thank you guys, i was trynna tease this out so: ""it"" doesnt 'minimize technical variables' in any meaningful way, rather: it removes variables essential to what we know as cinematography i assume that we profoundly disagree, and i say this as someone who is producing a film *shot on smartphones right now* (on purpose), soooo why have endless threads on this forum about the art of cinematography, the nuances of digital cameras, lenses, filtration, etc., if i should just shoot at f/8 to 'minimize variables'? sounds like something for docs not cinema *cough*

how does "f/8" minimize "technical variables"? sounds like hot garbage to me
