"Letters to Penthouse"

[Chris Messineo]

I posted three BTS shots at the top of this thread.

There are a bunch more, but I don't want to give away too much before the film comes out.

 

[Jack Daniel Stanley]

Nice.

Aram what is that shoulder rig?

 

[Chris Messineo]

He's wearing the DVRigPro in that shot.

We also used a FigRig, the EZFX Jib, Bogen tripod and head, and even some old school handheld. Basically, whatever made the most sense for the mood and logistics of each shot.

 

[Michael Anthony Horrigan]

Cool! Nice pics...

Mike

 

[Marlon Ladd]

Ooops! Yep, I did miss the response. Okay, thanks, Chris.

 

[Beat Takeshi]

Yeah, that was the DVRigPro. I like that thing but it makes your back hurt after a while.

Hey, I don't remember shooting the required "camera" to be eligible.

 

[Mark Harris]

Hey, I don't remember shooting the required "camera" to be eligible.

D'OH!

 

[Luis Caffesse]

Hey, I don't remember shooting the required "camera" to be eligible.

Double D'OH!

Can't you take that nice BTS shot of you with the rig and composite it into the background somewhere?

 

[Chris Messineo]

Hey, I don't remember shooting the required "camera" to be eligible.

Not to fear. We still need to shoot exteriors and some inserts for the apartment. Will stick it in somewhere.

 

[Beat Takeshi]

Maybe a guy walking down the street in one of the establishing shots with a camera around his neck. Or taking a picture of his girl in the background.

 

[Luis Caffesse]

Hey hey - don't ruin it for us.
I like waiting to see where people fit this stuff in.

 

[Beat Takeshi]

oh, sort of like where's waldo. That would be cool for the next contest. You have to hide something in the shot for people to find.

 

[Mark Harris]

What up? You edited? More grabs please?

 

[Chris Messineo]

Stills (straight out of camera - no color correction):

 

[Chris Messineo]

I will begin color correction and grading soon. I'm no expert, so if anyone has any suggestions or thoughts (or even if you want to play with some of the stills) that would be great.

 

[Herman Witkam]

These look awesome, Chris! Looking forward to seeing more!

 

[Brandon Rice]

Wow Chris... that first grab is awesome!

working on it ...

Not sure what you're looking for, but I'll throw some ideas at you :thumbsup:
