American Cinematographer - October 2007 - (Page 71) Image 80s, but we had to light it all evenly, so it was quite tricky to do.” In order to replicate the gentle light in Turner’s seascapes, Adefarasin bounced all of the 20K heads rather than point them directly at the ship. “We got a lightgray curtain on a track that surrounded the bluescreen and directed the lamps at that curtain,” he recalls. “It gave us a soft, non-directional light.” The curtain could be moved around the ship with ease, allowing the crew to shoot in any direction. Wilson also made sure that the lights were rigged and programmed to accommodate swift changes of setup: “We had them all pre-set so that if we changed side, port or starboard, at the touch of a button we could bring up one side and take down the other. When we were shooting daylight scenes, we used the same light sources but brought in 20-by frames of UltraBounce, which is a peak white material. We also had the complications of fire effects, for which we were putting Full CTO, or even Full plus 1⁄4 CTO, on 12K Dinos and rolling them a bit from the desk.” Of his camerawork, Adefarasin notes, “My approach needed to be simple, because sometimes the cameras swept everywhere. I had two great operators, Simon Finney [A camera] and Ben Wilson [B camera]; Simon had to cover the scene with due diligence, and Ben was able to hunt around for his shot, and we would find really exciting, dangerous images.” Wilson notes that keeping space clear for the evermobile cameras was not as challenging on The Golden Age as it might be on other productions. “Remi thinks things through so well,” says Wilson. “He doesn’t carry things around that he won’t use; he knows what his lights will do. Sometimes cinematographers will have lamps queuing out the door ‘just in case,’ but Remi doesn’t. He knows exactly what he wants.” I TECHNICAL SPECS Super 1.85:1 (Super 35mm for 1.85:1 extraction) Arricam Studio, Lite; Arri 435, 235 Zeiss Ultra Prime and Angenieux Optimo lenses Kodak Vision2 500T 5218, 200T 5217, 50D 5201 Digital Intermediate Printed on Kodak Vision 2383 71 http://www.pce-atlanta.com http://www.pce-atlanta.com
