If the WB isn't, you won't be able to correct it in post without messing up the skin tones.Īll of these and now SLog2 is my go to PP 70-80% of the time. You'll also want to make sure your WB is correct at all times. I personally like the range of colors I get from S-Gamut 3, so I stick with it. Also, some people prefer changing the color gamut from S-Gamut 3 to Cinema or Movie, which they find makes it easier to expose on the fly. Keep in mind, Sony's mirrorless cameras are designed to preserve highlights more than shadows. And, now, you don't have to push the codec as hard.Īs for exposing, as others mentioned, you want to expose to the right of the histogram, so that you can crush the blacks to hide the noise. This is going to make it so that, in post, you have more color to work with from the start. You have to nail exposure every time, and (especially when it comes to the A7sii/7ii/6300 era) colors tend to break or come out ugly when grading in post.īut, with a little tweaking and proper exposing, you can easily change it into the picture profile that people swear by, with colors that imo can rival other camera brands.įor settings, you'll want to go to the PP, tap right, and bump up the saturation as high as possible. The 8 bit codec isn't strong enough to handle grading. Right off the bat, Slog 2 SOOC imo is trash. A few exceptions are events with quick turnarounds, its just not worth it if its going on social media in 20 minutes then will never been seen again.Įdit: Thanks to u/nateholme for pointing out my typo on kelvin/iso Generally, I'd say I arguable shoot s-log too often as I've just got into the habit of it and like to have the wiggle room that it affords. X-rite does also make software which automated this entire process, its built in in resolve but plugins exist for FCPX and Premier as far as I'm aware. In post I'm using that to set or tweak my exposure/colour balance. Usually, I'll be shooting a card frame, where its placed in the scene under the same lights. I did a shoot recently when I had two identical jokers lights, one was bright blue, the other bright green. In the real world, lighting rarely if ever conforms to these standards, even studios light will wildly diverge from these depending on the age of the bulbs or manufacturer. My camera (fs5) when shooting s-log doesn't allow custom white balance, which means I have to stick with either 3200, 4300 or 5500 (K). White is better to pick WB off, you can use 18% but 18% grey is better to set your exposure as all light meters are calibrated (or supposed to be) to 18% grey. I use an x-rite card that has black, 18% grey and white. For months I was paranoid about radioactive contamination, wondering if I forgot to wash this or discard that, why did I let that feral dog lick me etc. Oh, and innocent things like a glove or a stick of gum become sinister. We later figured that was us blowing off all the heavy emotions. On the last day in Pripyat me and my buddy had this snap moment where we spontaneously acted like little kids, making snow angels and horsing around. STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl got the rural atmosphere bang on, while the HBO show absolutely nails the look, dimensions and feel of the Chernobyl plant hallways and control room. Nature wasted no time reclaiming everything. You're surrounded by the past frozen in time, but it feels like a post-human future. Mrs Ignatenko's account had me in tears on the plane. I went into the hospital basement because I wanted to see the clothing that those firemen wore. I read Chernobyl Prayer ( essential reading, by the way) beforehand so my head was swimming with survivor stories, who they were and the sacrifices they made. u/shickey maintains a videography-themed weekly challenge subreddit, so if you're looking for something to shoot head on over to /r/DoCreativeĬamera, NLE, year started, general location Requests for feedback or comments must be posted in the monthly ‘I Made This/Feedback’ threadĪ full copy of the rules can be read here.Use of affiliate links must be disclosed in post.Links posted must relate directly to videography.If you're looking for professional-only discussion, give /r/videoprofessionals a shot! r/videography is a subreddit intended for all skill levels, from beginners all the way through to professionals to come together to discuss the trade.
