IronFilm Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 You can clearly see it here in the trailer at the one minute mark, with a Rokinon Cine lens: But was the film itself filmed on a Blackmagic?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ash Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 filmed on a Black magic ??? It's on the cards it's a minimal budget production https://www.huffingtonpost.com/shira-lazar/how-do-you-make-a-movie-i_b_9298634.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted January 2, 2018 Author Share Posted January 2, 2018 Strange, I would have expected that scene from the trailer to be early on in the movie, yet forty minutes in and I haven't spotted a single BMCC! Hmmm... maybe it was in the trailer, but missed the final cut of the movie?! Certainly feels like a fairly low budget production (sound is bad!! Well, by my standards), so yeah... quite likely it was shot on a BMCC as well?? Who knows. The first twenty minutes was quite bad, bland cheesy terrible low budget rom-com, but from the twenty minute period onward it improved quite a bit. As the two co-leads have great chemistry (and the male co-lead doesn't show up until 20 minutes in). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ash Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Seems like quite a shrewd way to finance it .Does it do much to promote Turkey ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted January 2, 2018 Author Share Posted January 2, 2018 Absolute proof a BMCC was used for part of the film itself: Although from watching that, and other BTS videos, seems a mix of cameras were used: Phantom + GoPro (for an underwater shoot!) + Panasonic GH4 + ...a Canon?! (but seems that might have only been for stills?! As I only see it on a neck strap, hanging around a guy's neck in the BTS videos. But never being used for filming with) Oh, and I see a Beholder gimbal being used (with the GH4). Also, from watching the BTS it has become quite clear why the audio is sub par. 10 minutes ago, Aussie Ash said: Seems like quite a shrewd way to finance it .Does it do much to promote Turkey ???? Indeed! Good way to make a film. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Transferable_(film)#Filmmaking_model Basically is a mix of tourism related funding or other sponsors (such as Land Rover) + featuring a few YouTubers (which helps then with sales). Smart way to go about it. And yup, it features Turkey a lot and a *LOT*! But the great thing is it is done in a totally non-obtrusive manner, as it is just the setting where the film is. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/shira-lazar/how-do-you-make-a-movie-i_b_9298634.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted January 2, 2018 Author Share Posted January 2, 2018 Ahhhh ha..... very minor spoiler warning: The shot with a BMCC in it, that is also in the trailer, appears right near the end of the film itself. Sadly I can see now it is a BMCC with an EF mount :-( Maybe that is why they needed the GH4! (for any and all wide angle shots) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
