I agree as well. No shade to the content creators, but I’d rather hear from an actual filmmaker. I don’t want to hear stupid stuff like “Why did they put the monitor on the side?” For me there’s only 2 things I really care about in a camera. Image quality and ease of use.
@@jamarbrooks4690 I've shot on black magic cameras since 2016. It was accessible at the time for me, but I stayed for the raw files, the color science, and the fact that I love the image. The biggest issue black magic has had within the professional film community is it's build quality and performance issues. You can leave an Arri in the snow all day and it'll still turn on, but Black Magic's failed a few too many times and that's not something that's easy to get off your reputation. This was smart for black magic on two fronts: Patrick has a reputation as a DP first and speaks to those that are not looking to make content but work at the highest levels - by attaching his name to it they also get the access to his community. They could have gone with another working DP, but one without the community Patrick has built. On top of that Patrick is in Australia so saves them some $$$. Smart strategy on Black Magic's part.
I’ve been following you for almost two years and this has to be one of the most helpful pieces of content you’ve released. I subscribed to the Patreon for a month or two, but didn’t find it as helpful as the courses or any more insightful than what you post on this channel. With that said, being able to see your work and hear your thought process as you take us through one of your shoots is extremely valuable content that I would pay $5-10 a month for. Also, I was excited to see Blackmagic choose you to shoot their content. I think it would be mutually beneficial if you shot all of their flagship camera content.
I've come back here after downloading the footage from Black Magic's website SPECIFICALLY to shout out your 1stAC. That car shot where they NAIL 3 points of focus is sublime, especially how he snaps the girls eyes JUST as she hits the light while exiting the car. This is really IMPRESSIVE focus pulling so please tell him/her - we notice this stuff. GREAT WORK.
Been a fan of your work for years now. I'm glad other people will see this (due to the Pyxis) and start to see how well you break down things and add some humor to your explanations in a world that is so bent on taking themselves way too seriously. And yes, I would love to see another scene breakdown.
I’ve been listening to the podcast for years. I didn’t imagine you looked the way you actually do. This is my first time seeing your face. Thank you for all the great content throughout the years.
Really great to see you working with Blackmagic. I'm sure for many of us, we are not using Alexa for our work. So it's great to see you stepping into our world. I would love to see more from this shoot. Sidenote: this video doesn't seem to show up on your channel. When I click your channel, and go to the most recent videos, it's just not there.
Yeah, great video. Thanks so much for doing that and yes, I would definitely like to see more videos on this Black Magic and how it’s performed for you in various scenarios.
Glad you came around in the end for the self-mockery with the reflection shot you bashed the other DPs for 😅 Thanks for the breakdown - you really made that camera shine
Breathtakingly dense with interesting, enjoyable information. I'll never start a video career (82) until my next life where I'll train as a young Bollywood scriptwriter. But wow this was just a super enjoyable experience for an old stills guy (and very amateur, very occasional iPhone Pro video snapper). Uh, thank you X 10 and a big hearty Aretha respect.
Great breakdown and lots of great nuggets of lighting info. My favourite part of this breakdown is that although it was shot for Blackmagic, you could shoot this on more of less any camera these days and it would look great 👌🏻
Fascinating, interesting, amazing... all the good stuff. As mentioned by others: this has to be one of the best breakdowns you've done so far. And I've been around for a couple of years already!
This is dense, rapid fire and informative content, in exactly the tempo of the caffeinated and eager we all are, and exactly what I needed after a day shooting in the sun being disappointed in my own shortcomings. You teach me quickly and efficiently all the things you only get from experience and at the end, fulfill your real purpose, which is showing us all how deeply we suck. Nailed it. Thanks P, great video.
Love this channel. Your work is insane. To have completed this, from scratch, in a couple of days, is incredible, especially with a skeleton crew. Respect.
Great breakdown. Love that you keep it in the real world and not just a gushing camera review. Well done to Blackmagic for choosing an honest platform. No camera can do it all, it takes well executed plan with a knowledgeable crew. That said Blackmagic is giving use all a fighting chance. I’ve been watching and listening to your courses for a while now and it’s been incredible how it’s helped me. Thank you Patrick.
outdoor scene breakdown and preperation will be great - i hope you explain about how much neg you use outdoor and how you dont blow up the sun outdoor - also how you preper for shotting day like this and choose the right time for every scene
hahaha that's the best review of a camera. "i normally shoot on a 100k++ camera." "now i tried this new 4k+ camera" "i didn't change my workflow" "did it look good? yes"
I was wondering when this collab would happen given your location. Actually really looking forward to your take on new URSA Cine FF. Hope they bring you on for that promo film as well. Cheers
Well done! Congratulations, man. One day, I hope to be like you. If you ever need someone to film in Portugal, let me know-I'll make time to help you out.😅🙃
It would be cool and frankly very informative to look at the False Color image of these shots to get a better understanding as to how hot/cool the highlights/shadows should look for achiving these types of beautiful creamy shots
When I saw the Pyxis video I was obviously impressed particularly by the thickness of the images, didn’t realise it was the Wandering DP that shot it👌🏿👍🏿. As a BM shooter I’m wondering how much of this look was created in post? Would love to see the Rec709 vs the final image and or the node tree.. but I’m guessing that’s not going to happen so will have to figure it out when I eventually get it! Thanks for the breakdown.
Appreciated the breakdown, more detailed than usual. I'd like to see a breakdown for the night interior scene if you don't mind. Thank you for sharing your experience in shooting this commercial shoot.
I’ve been a BM user for years and I don’t think the colours are in the same league as an Alexa. They seem just a bit more cheap and cheerful and there is more red in the skin tones. I know BM graded this, but you can see it here in the look of these shots. This is still probably a great camera to have for the money and useability issues will be huge. BM cameras are so easy to expose with and come with big screens, so no need for extra monitors to get false colour etc. BRAW is also a very good codec.
Amazing video!! I guess with a dual iso cam, you could ND the windows and use less powerful fixtures (aperture 1200 or even 600) for a similar effect, right?
@@wanderingdp❤ Does that mean not quite as in somewhat or rather not really?:) At say a native (2nd) ISO 3200, the outside lights could be dropped by 3 stops. The window would need to be gelled with more ND and then we’d be able to match a similarly exposed room. I guess what won’t be quite the same is the color science of it all. Thanks so much for answering :))
Fantastic insight, thanks so much! That last shot, though. Did they use a motorized ND on the drone or was the exposure „animated“ in post? The image does get darker the further the drone flies, right? 🙈
Let’s say you need 3 stops of ambient to attain the desired ratio- are you using a light meter or false color (or something else I don’t know about 👀) to make sure it’s exactly where you want it so you’re not eyeballing it
@@wanderingdp okay I do that, I need 3 stops, I pump light in unseen windows, it looks great on my monitor, but how will I know for sure how much light I’ve actually added? Like I know I NEED 3 stops, and the monitor looks good, but idk wtf I actually added, it could’ve been 2 stops, but idk how to tell how many I’ve added…. Does that make sense? Like is there a tool or some way to determine I’ve added what I needed- no more, no less. Thank you, you’re a gem, I really appreciate your time to help
Honestly, as a 4-year BMPCC4K owner, I can say that Blackmagic cameras (and software if you wanna talk about Davinci) offer so much more bang for your buck compared to ANY of their competitors, it's amazing to me people still care about Arri and Red when the image is simply not better and you're paying 3-10X more. Yes. Shots fired.
Completetly agree ! Not only bang for buck, but in a couple projects I opted to use the 6k pro instead of the Komodo OG because of image quality and ISO, which for the project we shot, was more important, even though we had budget to rent either of them.
Obviously the image won’t be better than an Arri or Red. It’s Patrick and his framework which made the Pyxis look as good as it does. If DPs had a choice the Pyxis wouldn’t be the first thought.
@@Motionandstory Actually, yes and no. Yes the DP/camera person with vision and understanding of lighting and composition is the determining factor (Roger Deakins could make a snap cam look cinematic), but the differences between these cameras, in terms of resulting visual image, are so minor they really only matter to DPs because of highly nuanced preferences or just traditional use. Most of these cameras are interchangeable once you realize nobody's gonna know the difference. It's just marketing.
@@orcanimal the rolling shutter was pretty obvious. But yes I know what you mean by regular folk won’t know the difference. Just depends on what your client wants and notices too in terms of production level.
Isn't this the same sensor as the full frame 6k? When you say, "the ability to hold the color and highlights, that's the thing that was lacking before", how when the sensor is the same as different older model? Just curious.
Here in South Africa the Pyxis is selling for $4,500. That's a 50% mark up on the price set by Blackmagic. That's daylight robbery! It's cheaper for us to buy the camera direct from B&H, ship it ourselves and pay the import duties and we'll still save around $700! Hey Blackmagic are you aware of this? In case you're wondering why your market in South Africa isn't growing the way it should, now you know why.
So what are your thoughts in this scenario where you had using the haze in the forest instead when you’re trying to somewhat diminish the contrast for the shoot why would you not use a low contrast filter to assist with that?
Please more from this shoot! You are the first person to get your hands on the Pyxis. We've been starving for real world use scenarios!
Yes!
Fundamentally the PYXIS is a Lumix S1H with BlackMagic color science. There's really nothing new about it. The specs relating to image quality is exactly the same as the S1H.
@@HGQjazz I’m well aware. I have loads of cinema 6k videos to see footage. I don’t care about that. the body design is completely new. I want real world scenarios of working with it on set.
yes please!
The 6K FF is the same OLPF and same sensor -- same image. Just different IO and body.
All I was saying to myself while watching this commercial without having seen this breakdown yet, “look at all the neg and that little chase down the edge. DONT HIT THE NOSE…”❤
def don't hit the nose
Wow this is legit the most detailed breakdown ive watched before.
The most important part of this was knowing why he made his decisions!!!
Thank you gee GOD bless you !!!
Thank you. Genuinely. Its refreshing to see a working DP not be overly technical as some of the posers preach, who present themselves as doing it all.
It's good for other working DPs to feel normalized in our approach.
"Barking out orders, but nobody is listening." 😂 That's some insider truth right there.
'God damn it can I get the 70mm, for the fourth freaking time!"
"I asked the Gaffer...". You forgot to highlight that before he/she said, "yep," there was a 15-minute conversation of what their opinion of cinematography is, and then the sound guy chimed in too. 😂
pretty much

In case you're wondering why your market in South Africa isn't growing the way it should, now you know why.
Is there nothing filling in some shadow on the back of the man’s shirt? It seems like there’s a soft light on his back?
So what are your thoughts in this scenario where you had using the haze in the forest instead when you’re trying to somewhat diminish the contrast for the shoot why would you not use a low contrast filter to assist with that?
Haze affects contrast by distance. A filter wont do that
filter no good. haze better
