Hey This is my first thread but all the other ones I have read have been extremely helpful.

I am currently enrolled at the New York Film Academy in Los Angeles and am going to be shooting my thesis film in april. Its a thriller that takes place on the streets of LA at night and I was wondering if there was any advice for how to obtain that really beautiful digital look captured by michael mann and Dion Beebe in Collateral/Robbery Homicide/Miami Vice. A lot of the scenes in my movie takes place in a car so I will probably be relying a lot on natural light. The film is shot on the HVX2000 high def.

Any tips on lighting equipment, locations or lenses would be greatly appreciated thanks for your time!
 
I will be shooting in the 3000 Dollar range with 150o going to equipment for a five day shoot. Thanks for the article by the way!
