Why so hostile? Are you intimidated by my 16:9 animorphic lens? ARE YOU!?

I am.  



The stuff looks cool.  The lens makes things fisheye like crazy when you're zoomed all the way out, but if that's the look that you want, then it's perfect for it.  The "unlit" look works pretty well, but I'd suggest a bounce board or two, just to get a little bit of light on the front of things (especially on your actor in the second shot).

Thanks for the advice, and I also like the bendiness of it.  It was just a camera test, so I will pay more attention to the lighting when I shoot the real footage. I havent really fimled with it ( I got it two months ago) and wanted something to work with on final cut pro.

P.S. Whats a bounce board?

P.S. Whats a bounce board?

Just any reflective board to bounce the light from its source onto your subject.  You can use a sheet of styrofoam, a piece of white posterboard, or whatever else you want (different materials will have different qualities to the light that reflects off of them).  The best use of a bounce board is to shine on the actor's face to provide a little bit of fill, especially when your primary light source is behind the actor.

Yeah, everything looks a tiny bit underexposed.  But maybe that's just my moniter.

iris

[MagnoliaFan25]

yeah I think thats it

[polkablues]

Nah, you don't want to increase the exposure (iris) any more unless you want those windows to blow out like mad.  If anything, overcompensate with the interior lighting and then lower your exposure until you get that nice dark mood.

cool, thanks for the tips. Heres another screen capture of the movie Im shooting... this isnt a camera test like the other images.

Unless he's walking into an area where natural light seaps in like the 3rd shot.
