Great lens! It has that classic anamorphic look. One of my favorite parts of it is the beautiful bokeh, the fall off is really special on all the blazars and especially this one. It also stays sharp in the center of the lens. I also like the distortion but it’s really strong on this lens. It has a “swimming” effect where as the lens pans or the subject moves across the edges, there’s a warping. It can be corrected for the most part with some post work. But it’s definitely something to be aware of with the 35mm
great work man! thanks for sharing! did you use the same WB across the light set up (5500?) and just play with hues or a mix of both? I really don't know yet when and what it best for lighting to mess with the WB or Hues
Thank you for watching and for your kind words! Yeah I stuck at the 5500wb through the shoot. I wanted those warm colors to look warmer just so it gave off a “hot kitchen” vibe. I didn’t shoot raw so if I wanted to correct it in post I likely would’ve used the Film Look Creator tool in DaVinci resolve 19. The white balance slider is very efficient!
Hey my friend! It used to be called "Ci-lovers group" on instagram but now I believe its called "Diagram masters" they have a kit that I believe costs $20 or so
Great video, relatively large shift in the green from what was used on set to the final look. was this something you tested before hand or more found when it came down to grading?
Thank you for watching and for your kind words! I usually dial in saturation and hue ahead of time and then if I need to desaturate it or drop the hue in post I really like DaVinci resolves color slice tool. It’s fairly accurate for the most part!
@@storylitfilms Thanks for the answer! Great tutorial and a approach I love doing myself by dropping in a ton of practicals. Really like the terminology of lighting the space and not the face. Looking forward to future videos and all the best!
Means a ton my friend! Thank you for watching and for your kind words! I really wanted to try these lenses on a handheld shoot because of the distortion on the edges. It was a good test for me to see how they perform. They do have a really great 3d pop to them! They don't fall flat at all. But the distortion is heavy on them!
Sorry if this question isn’t connected to the topic of the video: how do I know if I can power the camera and the monitor off the same vmount battery? I haven’t found a good answer online yet and this is something that you shouldn’t experiment with since it can fry your camera or monitor.
Hi my friend! Great question. The issue you're referring to is a problem with SDI cables and not the power cables. Sometimes folks accidentally fry their SDI ports (more commonly on REDs from what I've heard), because they plug in their SDI cables before plugging in or unplugging the power. So any camera with and SDI output would follow the same safety step: REMOVE ALL SDI CABLES BEFORE PLUGGING/UNPLUGGING POWER. So don’t have any SDI cables plugged in, when you plug in power, and don’t have any SDI cables plugged in when you unplug power. So power on camera, and monitor, THEN connect SDI. Then reverse the steps, unplug SDI THEN power down monitor and camera. I hope this answers your question!
@@storylitfilms Thank you so much. Definitely a new sub :) But does that also include HMDI and how do I calculate if my vmount has enough output to power my entire rig.
@@theowlfromduolingo7982 Yeah I'd include HDMI in that. Depends on which camera you're running but any 12-14.8 volt battery is usually sufficient. You can then run a D Tap Splitter with a mini voltmeter readout so you can confidently keep track of battery power consumption. Kondor blue sells one here: kondorblue.com/products/d-tap-hub-for-zcam-teradek... With 1x 12.0V and 3x 14.8V, you can distribute power to your entire rig

What is the name of the software you used for the overhead lighting layout?

With your lighting skills and the Alexa you made those cheap lenses shine.

Where can I find the movie?
Not sure they released it, but I'll share a condensed reel version of it soon! Mostly so people can see the 35mm 1.5 blazar remus lens.
Also, what do you do for wb in this scene?
Hey hey! It was 4500k I believe! I might've bumped it to 5600k to get the tungsten color a bit warmer.
