what do you mean? i honestly don't get the analogy.

Well, you know how bland and transparent water colors look right? And you know the extended range of colors that oil paints give right? And even without comparing the two side by side, I am sure you can imagine al least some reasonable analogy there.

Mattias: Just saw the clip, and thought it looked stunning. As I'm kind of new to this, could you tell a litte about the lighting?

It seems that 64t really shines under tungsten lighting, and maybe not so much outdoors. Any thougts on that?

Hehe, OK. ;)
But it does get grainy in those oatmeal shadows. 8)

Now shoot a video with like 50D and I will stop complaining about grain.

i think you're right. it's not the tungsten though, you can easily filter any light to be the right color. i just think it needs careful lighting, like all reversals. for the indoor stuff we used two 2x800w spacelights above the band as key, about a meter up, an 800w redhead with some kind of blue/green theatrical gel as cross, overhead low cri tubes (i.e. green) flagged to spill only on the walls, some cool flicker was a bonus, then another redhead througth a frame of double 216 white diff and on a dimmer mounted on the dolly (well, tripod wheels actually) for fill. oh, and smoke. we couldn't afford a cracker or hazer so we used a regular smoke machine and *waited* and *fanned* and *waited* anf *fanned*. i could have put up my own cash to avoid that. ;-) the walls spotted f/1, the fill read f/1, key f/2, cross probaby f/2 as well, exposed at f/1.4.

the cinematographer's name is david grehn btw. i'm "just" the director.

Dam that looks cool! I love it when reversal is dark and saturated. The stills looked pretty grainy, but the clip was just right. Looked just as cool as any 500T i've shot, but different. Makes me wish 64T was 160T with the same look.
100D and Vision 3 please
