Western All Men Are Wicked Shot with Blackmagic Design
Posted: Wed Apr 23, 2025 3:13 pmIndependent western “All Men Are Wicked” focuses on three outlaws who find themselves bound and hanging upside down in the desert after being accused of robbing a stagecoach. The scenes were shot practically, with the three lead actors hanging feet first in the air for nearly 40 pages of dialogue. For Director Michael Hansen, this feat required a camera kit that could provide maximum flexibility.
“Having two cameras was essential as it provided maximum coverage for our actors. We only had about eight minutes per take to run as many pages as possible before it became a safety issue,” explained Hansen.
For the film, Hansen and DP Zak Ray selected two Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K digital film cameras. “We shot our daylight exteriors without flags, bounce or diffusion of any kind. We relied on the dynamic range of the sensors and the flexibility of Blackmagic RAW, and timed our scenes with sun position.”
