New Feature film shot in Techniscope 35mm Same type Lens and Cameras from TGTBTU

[Mcbain]

All - its been a long while since I posted here. I wanted to share some news on a feature film that we shot out west on the same model Arriflex cameras and lens Sergio employed on his first films (TGTBTU-Duck You Sucker).  I thought some of you might enjoy reading about our journey and dream to produce a 35mm Techniscope feature. 


After years of hunting down the original equipment Leone's DP's used, and going through the script/prep/production process we are now in the middle stages of post production.  I dearly love the look of Leones films and wanted to get the look and not compromise with digital capture and new lenses. The cross country film was shot in GA-Nevada & Utah. I will be posting some pictures and behind the scenes shots here directly. 

Cheers,
MCBAIN

Its a dystopian future film following a character who's job as an "Archivist" is to hunt down, and kill anyone found with items of "progress" from the 20th century (art, books, film, music etc).
Some pictures of the camera here with a modern crystal sync motor for slow motion and dialog sync.  Same 60's camera body and lens as used on TGTBTU etc.
And a screen grab from the camera negative.

Nice! You cannot attach pics by uploading them via the dedicated feature. You have to upload them on another website (say, Flick, fo in stance) and link them here.

Hey man, you have to edit the images they are way to big for the boards frame, Reduce them in size then upload them to an image hosting site then post them here.
a good size ratio is 4:3 or 16:9 but resoultion reduced to something like 72 or 96 pixels/inch

Try this, I downsized it.

Direct scan from the camera negatives.

Those are better, but do the same with all the ones above those they stretch the box way to wide :-)
