A Tear For You - A Frank Glencairn Film

This one will be a real challange for the HVX/Lex combo.

The whole scenery will be lit only by a christmas tree and some table lamps.

I did some tests. In the moment I try a setting where I shoot in cine D but the pedestal cranked up till he image looks real "milky", than I do my curves in post.

I was able to rduce noise by a good ammount.
I will probably ending up shooting uncompressed, cause the DVCPro HD codec gives me some headaches in that light situation.

I tried to simply overlight but I´m not getting the mood and atmosphere that way.

Here are the first tests. I´m not really satisfied yet with the final look, but I keep tweeking.
...and yes, I know it´s out a focus.

The third picture is about the look I want to get.

Fantastic - go Frank go! Nice to see you back! I am very much looking forward to this one. I loved a lot your TimeFest entry. Unfortunately you didn't finish 'The door', so I hope you will finish this one. :beer:

Nah! Will be in English.

Jenny is a native (brittish) speaker and sounds pretty good as long as she don´t have to fake an american accent ;-)

And she will be the only person who speaks in that short.

As long as they are speaking in their native tongue you should be fine. :beer:

Should be a good one.

Good luck!

The shot of the Tree is a huge difference. was that just basic color correction?

Basic Lift/Gama/Gain curves grading plus a bit of diffusion.

Need to lower the saturation also.

Tonight I´ll do some skin tone tests.

Very cool. I am sure the final result will be just what you want. I am shooting with same combo and I am going to have a hell of time with lighting.
 
Got some new light & colr tests.

Actualy I´m still not happy with the look.
But I got some more ideas that I can try out.

It´s getting a bit tight, but I think we can make it.

The need to build my own camera crane dolly with remote head for this, delayed it for a view weeks,
cause I wanted to do it right.

I will post some more soon.
