Scene File / Camera Settings

[Gauranga]

I'm shooting a TV Pilot this weekend and I need scene file and/or camera settings that will give me the look of "the Office" (you know, that NBC show with Steve Carell). Any help would be appreciated. THANKS!

I'll make sure to post what I eventually use.

Obviously I'm using the HVX200.

We'll have a limited amount of lighting and other equipment available so although I appreciate any other suggestions you might have I'd like to stick to scene file settings and other camera settings for now.

I can't help you there, but regardless, I would not try to do that anyway.

You are better off shooting fairly neutral footage and getting the look you are after in post.

Here is a link to some scene files for the DVX100a on DVInfo:

All the scene files are intended to mimic "The Office". Click on the preview links to see sample images. I haven't tried them myself.
The same settings are on the DVX but should produce similar results on the HVX200.
