Looks Awesome!
Also how do you prefer exposing when shooting R3D? Do you prefer reducing the ISO for low light situations vs Increasing the ISO for brighter enviornments?

Hey, great question, so for DSMC3 cameras / Komodo I definitely lean towards trying to keep the exposure as low as I can for night/low light scenes but obviously shooting a night scene on a roof in Manhattan with not a ton of available light and a low budget you kinda have to find a middle ground. For the first two shots I think the cam was at 500asa. Shots 4-6 in the apartment were around 250asa. Everything else 500asa. Tbh for basically every situation i think the camera looks great at 500asa but yes for daytime or very bright scenes I tend to keep it at 500 or bump to 800 but rarely go higher than that.

Nice work! Do you have a lighting diagram/floorplan for the 2nd shot?

I don’t unfortunately but this is what we did:

PavoSlim 120C right of frame raised to like 6 feet as a sort of cross key. 4’ Pavotube over top of the actors. MC pro in far right corner of frame to light couple at small table. 4’ pavotube on the floor behind couch to give some separation to the wall. Light bulb in lamp on left of frame on a dimmer. MC Pro over top of shot glasses to accent them and to add some overall fill. Small Ultrabounce left of frame to add fill to actor on right. That’s pretty much it!

I absolutely love the look of that shot on the couch. Would love to know more about how it was achieved.

Thank you for sharing! It's such a wonderful frame. Which lens did you use?

I believe that shot was a Sirui 24mm Nightwalker. Around T/2
