Also understand as a camera PA is to get the loving coffee when you are asked to. You think the 1st and 2nd have anytime off to get it?

If you are subbing as a 2nd then get introduced to your batteries and chargers. If they are bauers read up on what the LCD readouts mean. Always be charging.

Do you guys in LA find a heavy resistance to shooting ARRIRAW on the alexa? Up here in Toronto there seems to be an irrational fear of posting ARRIRAW I just don't understand.

doesn't matter anyway because you are all shitheads and terrible hacks and should all you kill yourselves etc etc. Real men shoot on VHS.

don't you understand, the blurry rack focus is the style now. It's the bokeh that makes the image!!! not the thing that's in focus!! (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Been 3D matching Illumina lenses all today. They are very pretty, horribly soft and flare easily, but very pretty looking. I guess they really are modern lomos. One thing that sucks though the lens barrel moves as they focus.

Seriously gently caress redrock. If anyone suggests any Redrock accessories to you, slap them. I was focus pulling on a feature with 5Ds on Redrock rigs and it was embarrassing how Fischer Price flimsy they are. The case for my iphone is made of more robust plastic. In other news I've impulse bought a tilta follow focus, price was right and gently caress it, it can't be worse then the redrock.

Tiresias posted:Meh, yet another vest inventor who isn't thrilled to my reaction to their vests. First Fawcett, now Klassen. Who's left? You must have had an improperly sized vest, I did some easy rig stuff with one of the vests with a 3D camera while testing it and the way it diverted the load off the shoulder straps right onto the hip bone was amazing. The 75 pounds of dual alexa's and beamsplitter, not so much. Also walter's spring for his easyrig can be wound up for 150 pounds I think, which I dunno what monster of a human being could handle that.

I also just found this old picture of myself with my original helmet camera. I imagine this is the only place on the forums that can appreciate its insanity. Not pictured was the 6mm century, LMB-5 with 3 stages and preston MDR and motor system they ended up strapping to it. The fact the operator wasn't decapitated on set amazes me.

Don't do purple. Unless it's inside a cheap strip joint of something it never renders well against anything.

The guy sounds like a pussy. I've been on a shoot just like that and after we found out they didn't actually have any health insurance for the crew we stayed at the hotel until they fired us. But I'm not going to go on tumblr and snitch like a bastard.

SquareDog posted:blah blah blah terrible taste in cameras Sorry you have terrible taste in cameras. The Aaton is a specialty camera, not a TV/low budget workhorse. They are not made for mass production. I am sure they will sell fine for aaton.

1st AD posted:What's a good BMC portable power supply that can give me something like 8 hours of shooting time (I'm obviously not shooting that much, but would like to not have to be tethered to an outlet at all)? I'm gonna use one in a couple of weeks for some behind the scenes work for a few days.

I can't see anything there that couldn't already be done with a gyro system. Cheaper rental, no second operator. It's a gimmick.

Pocket seems fun. Basically the digi bolex at a 3rd of the price but with terrible black magic build quality and unreliability.

BeavisNuke posted:What do you think about a cheap chinese steadicam like this as opposed to a blackbird stabilizer or merlin? They actually get pretty good reviews. Only reason I could imagine to buy this is for a wicked Aliens Marine smartgun halloween costume.

Sometimes I like to cruise reduser to enjoy schadenfreude of horribly wrong opinions but then I can just come here for it.
