Ron Whitaker. We took that website offline, and we are gearing up for the next bootcamp. We will give you more details as soon as we solidify them.

George Pauley, you can not dim a Grainger light. It has a ballast and needs all the power possible to keep the bulb lit. It is not a high end HMI that has a 1 stop dimmer in it. You will have to use CTO color correction to warm the light up to get it to the desired color temp, if you want to make it perfect you will need some minus green filtration also.

Shane – a few more questions about the Grainger light. When diming a practical bulb, the temperature gets lower and warms the light, correct? So, if I put a dimmer on the Grainger light, could I then lower the temp to 5600k to be more daylight balanced? Or better yet, what gel could I use to match it to tungsten or daylight? Also, how do these lights look on skin tones to you?

George Pauley, Those lights kick ass. They are around 6600K I go direct with them for hard edges, I bounced them a lot on Terminator. I took there bale system and mounted a Jr. spud on it so that you can rig them and or put them in a stand. I bought 800 of them for Terminator: Salvation for the Skynet testing center sequence.

Hey Shane – that Grainger 1500 watt light you mention a lot in your blog. You say it outputs equivilent to ~4k HMI? What color temp is it? Do you mostly bounce it? Any info on that light would be awesome!

Thanks for everything. I love reading your blog.

Bob Franco, I will love to check it out, but I feel it will be the same bad Panasonic color space and their grey skin tones. They are ENG manufacturers. Nothing else.

I will contact Darrin for sure thank you so much and please let me know when and where we can see the stuff you shot from the deck of the ship :)

Shane,

I’m wondering what your thoughts are on the soon to be released panasonic
AF 101 with the 4/3′rds chip and “normal” video camera features?
Thanks,
Bob

Gianluca, yes we do. You can contact Darin Necessary and he makes all of our brackets for this monitor, he can talk you through how to mount it and then send you a plate. izzynecessary@mac.com

Hello Shane, I purchased one of your viewfinder :) I mean the HP Dreamcolor monitor… I’m pretty happy about it and it behaves similarly to the Eizo screen that I use for photography’s purpose. Now my next step is to figure out how to attach it to the Pelican case in the way it was at the bootcamp. So bad that I didn’t take a picture of it… I’m sure that someone of your Elite team has a secret receipt for the task ;)

Thanks Shane and the Elite Team. It was blast. I love that I made the behind the scenes pictures. Arnar/Nance it was nice to meet both of you. I hope all is well.

Hello Shane! How is going there in Mexico? Can you share anything about your shooting sessions?
I’d really love to be there with you and the Elite Team.
There is any place where I can go and pick up a copy of the footage shot by Group A? Can you please also remind me the name of the journalist who attended the bootcamp and the name of his on-line magazine? Thank you very much and hope to see you again soon.
