Title: Reverse Mag/Shot
Post by: Adam0199 on March 19, 2003, 10:56:25 PM
Shooting a scene on 16mm where I want to make it look like a person is cleaning their apartment effortlessly, ie. forks and spoons and plates being cast into proper shelves. Has anyone had experience with designing and executing certain shots? How exactly did you do it? I'm using an Arri-S and also have access to a Bolex. I know the upside down Bolex stuff but think I'll run the film in reverse using the Arri.


Thanks
Adam

I think I understand what you are trying to do, but it sounds pretty painstaking. Are you planning on having everything attached to a wire or something and yanking it off the shelves? Is it all going to be one shot? are the items supposed to fly directly from the character's hands to the shelves?
