Blackmagic Forum

I was watching the new show bad monkey on Apple TV. The show looks really beautiful. And I noticed on the IMDb credits that it was shot on both Alexa mini LF and Ursa mini 12K. Does anyone know what percentage of the show was shot on the Ursa Mini 12K? They cut really well together cause it’s really hard to tell. But to me it looks like half the show or more was shot on Ursa 12k.

John Brawley is shooting this one. I'm sure he will answer when he can. He is a great source of wisdom here on the forum and a regular Blackmagic user and alpha/beta tester.

I believe he's also using the new unreleased Ursa Cine 12k.

I love John's work. Bad Monkey is so pretty looking. I wonder if he used the Ursa Cine 12K too during the filming for Beta testing.

I watched the 1st episode of "Bad Monkey", and it looks great. As usual, John Brawley does fantastic work!

Just watched episode 4, and it keeps getting better. I love how the color grade reflects the look and feel of Miami and the Florida Keys. South Florida is really bright, sunny and hot, and the strong light renders colors very saturated. Lately every commercial, movie and TV show sits at the bottom of the waveform. Bad Monkey sits all the way at the top. It’s got to be the brightest show on TV luminance wise
