Londonmark films are currently engaged in pre production for a new film - called Absolute. Extensive meetings have taken place this week between LMF, script writers and storyboard artists. The new teaser trailer that contains a glimpse of the story prior to shooting is also online and can be found here.
Absolute - Storyboard frame
One of the locations for Absolute changed during the course of the week and we now have an apartment with a spectacular view of London, so to take advantage of that view at both Dusk and night time I decided to switch from Anamorphic to Spherical lenses so we could gain an extra stop of light in that location and see a little bit more of the city lights in the background.
For our other Interior scenes I'll use the Optimo 11:1 for coverage to work with a more compressed field of view and a shallower depth of field then I'd usually have in spherical photography. Both 24/7 and Panalux have come on board to provide our kit; Iwen Reynolds(above) Focus Puller preping the 11:1 & RED combo above - Stephen Murphy DoP - Absolute
