Insofar as I've stuck around here at all, it was motivated by the podcast: well, the darn podcast is over, so I've got no excuse.

Find me at the site below, or on my YT channel.

A little snippet from my little lecture on lighting.

Why are modern movies lit like -THAT-? All your questions are answered - in typically discursive and rigorous fashion - during my final lighting lecture for @VIFFest, available now on the video streaming platform that starts in "Y"!

I try to restrain myself from just yelling at clouds like an old man, but when misinformation goes viral it ought to be pushed back against: this video is a nearly-unbroken string of misinformation and should be entirely disregarded when it comes to digital color science.

[Devan Scott @SadHillDevan]

Most of the aesthetic attributes raised are trivial to calibrate later in the image formation process via a proper color management, look development, and color grading process. This is just total nonsense, and most of what's being described here is poor white-balance matching.

[Devan Scott @SadHillDevan]

The litany of stuff that's just completely off-base here is remarkable. Virtually everything that this video attributes to the "color science" of any given camera is a functional of image formation pipelines that occur independently of the capture format/camera/brand.

The third of my four lighting workshops for @VIFFest is live! Right now! That's right!

This week: Subrata Mitra, parallel cinema, the French new wave, and how it took Hollywood years to catch up.

@GentleDoofus It should be; Dave's team sourced the tinting report.

If you're in NYC.... go see this. The new restoration of my favourite of Lubitsch's silent works! And it's got a fascinating story behind it!
