Holy cow!!!! These images are top notch!

Who was the DOP & Lighting guy?
 
Hi Timur,

Wow, your poster image and design are fantastic. The lighting (as seen in the still frames) is equally fantastic. I simply can't wait to watch it. Did you have any follow focus issues when utilizing the Canon lenses due to them not having distance markers on the barrel, and if so, how did you overcome them? Great technical details on the lighting mechanics of shooting with multiple lenses, as well! Rock on.

thank you, the lighting is also the responsibility of the Lighting ninja Aram Bauman.

All CAnon FD lenses have distance markers on the lens barrel. With a properly tuned SGpro/M2/Brevis, they are accurate to the inch. Pulling focus was difficult, only because we did not have a decent monitor. My next purchase is a Onboard flipping monitor. Preferably the highest resolution i can find. As well as a Follow focus. thats vital, i was pulling focus by hand, and it shakes the camera.
 
yeah, I am super proud of the team on this, they executed so many of the things in my head so perfectly. I sat there watching scenes I'd only imagined come to life right before my eyes.
