....Wow! It's sort of a pulp sandwich picture! I can't pick out the differences between 500T and 200T. It looks good. Did you use fill lights in the restraunt scenes or were you relying on existing light?

These color negative stocks offer amazing exposure latitude. That is evident in shots in the restraunt where the exterior street can be seen outside even though it is probably three stops overexposed.

Is this a one light transfer or did you have CinePost do any color correction?

Thanks for posting your work.

I had 2 work lamps that were 500w for fill in the restauraunt. I underexposed some 200t, and over exposed some 500t. And the 500t footage looked better. There was also plenty of outside light comming in, which pushed things a bit blue...

I also used the lamps in the office building. All the flourescent light pushed things a bit neon green.

I had CinePost do a best light. But I still did color and exposure correction.
