Bioskop.Inc Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Just a sample segment from a doc that's nearly finished.Just wanted some feedback really - what strikes you as needing change?All shot on the BMPCC (ProRes), the 54 & either the Tokina AT-X Pro 28-70 or Mir-24Password: 54http://vimeo.com/135461772 Rudolf and Julian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolf Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I'm on holiday and therefor had to watch the clip on my ipad. The bmpcc with 54 and tokina is a great combo! This is my favourite zoom lens with the Iscorama 54. i like the atmosphere and the colors as well. There is not much to critisize especially not from my side as I am not a pro. maybe some grain could add something to the atmo (like the vinyl crackle)? For my taste there is a little bit too much shallow depth. I' d prefer a more dirty 16mm film style. Otherwise you did a great job so far and I would really really like to see the finished doc (i am also into the music as well)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was the case & by chance i have a version that is 2k - going to try this ASAP.Cheers Hans Hans Punk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bioskop.Inc Posted August 14, 2015 Author Share Posted August 14, 2015 Right, I tried the way Hans suggested, with 2 clips.1) Original clip, but with a lot more saturation added (170%) & a hint of Blue in Blacks/Midtones (to offset Polaroid 600 from FC) - might need a little grain added:PW: colour 2) The closing segment of doc. Lots of S16 grain added (150%):PW: s16 Hans Punk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bioskop.Inc Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 Title sequence for this doc - a homage to the great Saul Bass (Psycho titles to be precise).Timelapse done with Canon 60D, Iscorama 54 & Tokina AT-X Pro 28-70mm.Going to try another timelapse, to see which one is better.PW: saul b Hans Punk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bioskop.Inc Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Pretty much the final edit, but if you do see things that make you wince or just seem bad timing or out of place - please make yourself heard (just be good to have a 2nd, 3rd, 4th...set of eyes).ThanksPW: stu Rudolf and Hans Punk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bioskop.Inc Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Thanks guys, its been a bit of a nightmare (bands can be a bit difficult sometimes), but go there in the end!Yes Hans, the title sequence is a little too long, but we agreed on me creating a Homage to Saul Bass & Psycho - over indulgence by me, but they're cool with it. Did try to get some vistas from Cabot Tower, but my Vertigo made the footage un-usable.If you're wondering about the titles then just google "Psycho Title sequence" - they're the inspiration.Why Black, Grey & White titles with some colour footage? Well I wanted the whole doc in B&W, but I kinda lost that battle - partly due to the studio section & the final graveyard section; they just looked too good in colour.
