Thank you for not smoquing

Who knew there were so many types of filters. I spent the better part of an hour trying to understand all of the different camera filters.

so cranking up the gain makes everything look ultra-realistic and serious...i tried it out in my 'run n gun' (that's right i said gun) shoot but i don't think it quite worked out for me like i hoped.... "it did not have the effect Longshanks desired".

so i've been watching movies with this new 'eye', like i'm looking for how scenes are shot and lit and stuff like that and i just can't get over how much i like the look of James Cameron's the Terminator. Adam Greenberg was DP on the first and the second movies, but i think the look has a lot to do with James Cameron. It's got the same low angles; stuff getting crushed; realism; that Aliens has and Adam Greenberg wasn't DP on that one. I don't know if there's a name for that sort of conceptual look but i need to figure it out
