Day progressed very smoothly except for realizing at one point that the director (my wife) had given me once a 500T instead of 200T, and I had overexposed it two stops. My bad though for not giving specific instructions when asking her to bring "the next cartridge".. Beaulieu ran well and the hip hop dance will probably look quite good with the fast shutter speed. We had a sunny day, but had some sort of very light cloud-fog in the air, as the light wasn't that hard but instead a little diffused. For the first time I also rented and used myself a butterfly frame and some silent sail for it, but as we had scenes with lots of people it wasn't used that much. Neither was the 1.2kW HMI, which was like a torch compared to sunshine. However, in the shadow it did have its uses.
Really interesting day with film. Even if we were a bit short on hands, having my wife do directing & wardrobe, my brother as a grip & "reflector man" and myself shooting and producing. And trying to find the night before the shoot why my Ansmann ACS110 wasn't able to charge my external battery through the camera. Fortunately the charging worked when done outside camera!
