Hi there !
We are soon shooting a 3min web commercial for a wine company, with knights , and swords
and flying 3D dragons 🤪, web only. I’m directing it.
We decided to shoot anamorphic to have this epic look, with the Mavo Edge
We gonna rent the COOKE ANAMORPHIC/I FULL FRAME SPECIAL FLARE, full frame lenses,
40mm, 75mm and 135mm, who covers full 24 × 36 still size sensor with 1.8 squeeze.
Cause I have a few 3D Dragon shot to integrate, with full body and head, I’m thinking delivering in 2:1 Univisium format, to have the wide look , but also enough height for the Dragon etc. . I think it’s a sweet spot between 1,85 :1 and 2,39:1.
The DOP , and myself also, are not very experienced with anamorphic shooting, so I have a few questions 😉
What is the best camera setting for this shooting, 4KDCI, OG, 8KOG ? How much do I have to crop inside to the footage ? is there a math thing to do so I could understand the process ?😉
I’d like to have some 200fps slowmo (running horses). If I shoot 2KDCI 200fps, possible ?
Can I desqueeze correctly in camera the 1.8 squeeze ? ton send it threw SDI for different monitors?
Many many thanks for your help !
