I was wondering if it's possible to shoot 16mm anamorphically, and if so, how would you go about doing that? Thanks Jacob

I just worked a shoot for a students senior thesis... he was shooting on a Red One, and that along with lenses and storage (which is the catch) he was pushing $2,000 a day. But that is top end - along with the likes of the Sony HDW-F900 series, or Viper Filmstream. Not to mention, he is printing...

Sooo I am currently working in pre on a 35mm feature for my senior film, which Is supposed to be done on as professional a level as possible. My question is who here has gotten significant funding for films, and how did you do it? Thanks! Jacob

HD is not comparable to film unless you are getting a high end HD camera, which comes closest, but will cost you 2K a day to rent.

The location is supposed to be in the middle of nowhere, with the moon being the only light source. Maybe "fake" isn't the right word... Harsh might be better. I don't remember exactly what it was that I saw that looked so bad but you could tell that it was produced - it almost looked like they...

I have two scenes I am shooting and was wondering the best way to do it. For one scene, it is out doors, and I was wondering the best way to achieve a moonlight look that doesn't look completely fake, and the other scene involves a character watching tv, so how would I be able to light the...

Oh, okay, so that look is specific to the Schneider Classic Softs then. Got it. Thanks a lot Mr. Mullen! Jacob Zuberi

Okay, I get it now. I do have one more question though. In the final War of the Worlds picture you have there, of the ferry, there seem to be perfect... orbs I guess... around all the lights. They are here on the lamp too... Why and when do those show up, because most other lights that are...

Okay, that makes sense. I was just wondering about the ASA, because I shot 250 with a ProMist 1 a few weeks ago outdoors, with the subject in shadow and everything else in the light. I didn't get much halation at all on anything, so that's why I asked. If I were to spot meter, what kind of ratio...

What kind of asa would you have to be shooting to get the hot spots on things that aren't going to be really that hot, like the blacktop in the first classic soft image you have there?

Mr Mullen, I was wondering how you would achieve the lighting effects in these images... I am assuming that a soft filter is being used here, but how do you light it to get those effects? Is there a certain way that will get the best results, or would you just light the shot normally...

So how does a subharmonic generator work? Do you play your audio through it and then re-record that or what?

How would you do that in soundtrack pro?

I was watching the Return of the King last night and I noticed that there was a lot of very deep rumbles throughout the film, many times in a pulsating manner, and I was wondering how you would get an effect like that? Thanks. Jacob

Does anyone have any ideas about how to set up an eyepiece video tap for a k-3 or bolex? Jacob

I was wondering if you had any suggestions for setting up an eyepiece video tap, thanks. Jacob

Awesome, thanks.

If I were to do the flashing and skip bleach process, would I need to meter differently for that, or meter for the regular asa of the film?

Dear Mr. Mullen, I was wondering, if you knew, how the look of the image of saving private ryan was achieved. I noticed you briefly mentioned in another thread how this was done, but I was wondering if you could perhaps give a more detailed explanation. Thanks. Jacob

Thanks a million!
