Overview:
I shot this commercial on spec, using Film on my Super 16 Aaton, with a limited crew. I was the Director-Cameraman, and I had a Gaffer and a Camera assistant, but no lights. We shot on 7245 film stock, and if there had been a budget, we would have had at least one 6K HMI. However; with preparation and an obliging sky, we were able to pull off 20 takes--the wide shot and the closeups--even though the gaffer only had a bounce board. We shot this in the middle of November and the actress, braved the cold, and kept from shivering during the takes. Fifteen minutes worth of "Magic Hour," and we were done. We did the supervised film-to-tape transfer at Du-Art, with Tim Bomd at the controls of the Y Front telecine. Cost: approximately $750, including film, processing, transfer, and feeding the cast and crew. Editing was completed at Gladstone Films Clif Bar gave their consent to the display of this spot.
