First BMCC project - low light documentary based TVC

PostSun Apr 28, 2013 9:51 pm

I thought I'd share my first BMCC project. I've had my camera about a week and have been testing up till this project.

This is a targeted ad that will be matched with appropriate content on YouTube for an audience already aware of the band.

This was just me as a one-man-band on this project, shooting in a fairly uncontrolled environment. Both barebones and with a monopod.

Please feel free to feedback! But do keep in mind I'm sharing this for the hell of it and just because I want to share ... I'm not looking for 5 pages for criticism!

I love how clean this image is, even when underexposed. No noise reduction run on this.

Hey man,
nice job. Give us more info: lenses, film/video mode compressed or raw. Color correction? Graded with?
I wish you all the luck with future projects!

Cheers,

Milen

Thanks for the kind words Milen.

Lenses were Canon 24 f1.4 L and Sigma 17-50 f2.8 OS (mostly the Sigma).

Shot in raw in film mode.

Colour graded in Resolve.

Looks great!

Couldn't see any noise in the mp4 I downloaded either, unbelieveable, my BMC has noise all ver the place... (never shot RAW so far)

I was actually pretty surprised with how far I could lift my exposure in post without getting into unacceptable levels of grain.
