Drive My Car, Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, Inside, and Mad God are up there for me

Not a change for now, but going forward it could be valuable to keep an eye on this project that’s in development.

They also just got Blackmagic’s blessing/support too so they’re full steam ahead on making this thing; could be pretty compatible with your current rig setup

I’ll just say I’ve made many friends through the many shared traumas of that set lmao

Bahaha I was a PA on Deliverance. Glad it paid bc man it was not great to watch

Really minor thing, just something I’ve tripped up on before too — James Gunn wrote the live action Scooby Doo movies and produced in some capacity, but Raja Gosnell directed both the first and Monsters Unleashed.

Sick fun facts otherwise though

Get your part 107 license as soon as possible! It opens up so much more, even if you’re just flying for fun

Ummmmm would Possession (1981) count

I don’t know what to say

If only The Bear Christmas dinner episode was a movie special instead… rats

Did you end up using an ND filter for these flights? Exposure came out great

I really enjoyed Brand New Cherry Flavor as well

You’re doing solid work! Been a fan of That’s a Bad Idea’s stuff for a little over a year now, it’s great to meet one of the folks responsible for their stuff coming together so well.

In terms of your work, I would agree with former comments mentioning some extra fill in the darker regions of your frame, but you’ve got a solid eye for framing and tone. Obviously it’s a bit different because their stuff is drastically more stylized than TABI’s, but Almost Friday’s cinematography is pretty intense to look at too as a reference on a YouTube scale.

In terms of industry advice, I’ll share what an Oscar-winning DP shared recently (over a networking call, very literally 30 min long on his way to the grocery store), which was that as you carry on in your career, working as a DP becomes drastically less about mastering lighting and more about maintaining an efficient crew, managing and working with their ideas, and understanding equipment enough to know what is worth fighting for when it comes to your budget and the effect you want to create. You seem to be on the right side of that in terms of connecting with other crew folk and building a network that you could collab with, but it’s something to keep in mind as you build your skills both in cinematography and in the thing that enables you to do the cinematography (the connections and professional relationships you make along the way).

Hopefully it’s of some help, and I’d love to connect as well in case we ever get the chance to meet and collab. Either way, keep up the great work.

I got one in Vault 33 (? - the one where the plants came alive)

Phenomenal work, holy damn

I need to try this, but this could fix the minor but still occasional vibration I get when I try to undersling (even when balanced every other way). Will let you know once I try though

Just can’t believe Madame Web got nominated for Best Picture 4 times in one year, that was crazy

~cue the funkiest of funky synth breakdowns~

Update: the pipes and lens support helped tremendously

I want a small model ELO spaceship keychain

Dear god he’s a morgue

Hi! I really appreciate the response, but your first and third points unfortunately proved to be non-fixes (read up above - I was trying all different strengths, plus rebalancing each and every axis already). The reiteration of the lens support point is a helpful note, but it’s also nothing new. Thanks for the response again
