Scott's 'Domino' mixes cameras

Joining the growing movement toward digital lensing, director Tony Scott is using a hybrid array of high-definition video, digital still and motion picture film cameras on his new project, "Domino." Lensing began this month in Los Angeles on the New Line biopic, which was written by "Donnie Darko" director Richard Kelly for Davis Films/Scott Free Prods. Scott and his cinematographer Dan Mindel ("Spy Game) are using a Thomson Viper HD camera, a Canon digital still camera, a Panaflex Platinum, a Panavision Millennium XL and two hand-cranked Arriflex 2Cs. The mixture of film and digital footage will ultimately go through a digital intermediate master overseen by Scott's longtime digital colorist and CO3 founder Stephen Sonnenfeld.

agent orange was headache inducing.  he is taking amazons money and just doing whatever the fuck he wants.  it was pretty hard to watch, but maybe he picked up a few neat tricks while making it he can use on Domino.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

Quote from: GhostboyMan On Fire -- so over the top in its direction that it becomes quite fascinating. Brilliant use of subtitles.

Hmmm... Just looked to me like Scott and his crew were coked out of their minds and made a mess of things...

Source: Hollywood Reporter

Tony Scott is in negotiations to direct the romantic thriller "Deja Vu" for producer Jerry Bruckheimer and the Walt Disney Studios. The screenplay by Terry Rossio and Bill Marsilii centers on an FBI agent who travels back in time to save a woman from a murder and falls in love with her in the process. Scott and Bruckheimer have collaborated on such films as "Top Gun," "Beverly Hills Cop II," "Days of Thunder," "Crimson Tide" and "Enemy of the State." Bruckheimer will produce, along with executive producers Mike Stenson and Chad Oman, both of Bruckheimer Films, and Rossio and Ted Elliott. The project is being supervised by Buena Vista Motion Picture Group president Nina Jacobson and executive vp production Jason Reed. Scott, repped by CAA, is in postproduction on "Domino," the story of Domino Harvey, the daughter of actor Laurence Harvey. "Domino" will be released domestically by New Line Cinema.
