The rig occupied about 180 channels. Yes we replace the batteries when they give us 2 lines.

I'm a high school student that's involved with the theater department (on the tech side of course), with an interest in film too. When it comes to lighting a set like this, what type of board do you use? We use an ETC Express at our school, but what you're using seems a little more complicated than the Express. How many channels did your massive rig occupy? I'm really impressed with the look that it gives. By shooting with 5D's, do you ever run into issues with batteries going dead midway through a shot, or do you switch them out as much as you can? Anyway, thanks for posting these BTS clips. It's really inspiring for the aspiring. Hey Shane!

Great multi-cam set-up, did you guys rig any cam's inside the goal (upper corners) with wide lens? Let me know if there is a hi-res version of the final cut, love to check it out ... btw, great "air canon"-lol, ... all the best, thanks man.

We had another South African come to our bootcamp last year, his name was Clive Mohale. Awesome filmmaker. As it stands right now my schedule will not allow another bootcamp in 2011. I am slotted to shoot another feature in the fall. I thank you so much for all of your kind words and support. I am very happy that I am helping you. These comments are what inspire me to keep on doing what I am doing. Plenty more BTS on the way. Tyler Bizzell, it is great hearing from you all the way from South Africa.

Could you give us some more information about that light setup? I´ve seen you using the same on "The last 3 minutes" aswell. What kind of bulbs do you use (color temp, output?) Thanks a lot in advance, Jassin Hi Shane,

I'm sitting on the other side of the planet in South Africa and with the joys of the internet I'm able to follow along with what is happening out there. Your work and even more so your method and willingness to share is inspiring. I started in film some 10 years ago with no formal training, just got myself on set and learnt the hard way when I used to live in LA. Back in SA, cost is quite a prohibitive factor and I created a little production company but had to shoot everything on HDV which wasn't too inspiring and I subsequently left the business. With the rise of the HDSLRs, things have changed :) After watching your videos and reading your blog I have invested in a 60D a range of lenses and audio equipment and...WOW. I feel like I'm back shooting film, at least creatively which is fantastic. Your boot Camp looks incredible, I'm trying to figure out a way to get out to the USA to do one, a long way to come for a weekend, but worth it I'm sure, so I hope to meet you in the near future (PS: keep the BTSs coming, they really do help us budding film makers) Best, Tyler Hi Shane,

I was wondering what you think of the new Sony NEX FS100 since it is basically the same size as a DSLR but it has made some of the sensor issues better, i.e. rolling shutter and moire? Do you think you'll have a use for it on your projects either in conjunction with your DSLR's or instead of them in some cases? Thanks in advance. Paul Hi Shane,

Another question about the batons: I've used similar rigs before but I noticed on Blackbird that you had the house set's ceiling lined with the suckers. Were they just there to pop on and off as warm, dim backlights or was that for some kind of light gag effect? Shane,

Yes, I designed these lights on the movie Mr. 3000 starring Bernie Mac. I love the soft but controllable quality of them, I am currently using 40 8' batons and 40 4' baton lights on Kin/Blackbird my next film that I am shooting in Montreal as we speak. The picture style was an ektachrome that I made a while back to pop colors and contrast. D, You are very welcome and thank you for the support.

Could you fill us in a little more on your Baton lights? You tend to use those babies often it seems, and I personally would love to see a blog post on them. Also did you design a custom picture setting for this shoot as you did with the Navy SEALS feature? The colors with this footage just pop and are absolutely wonderful. I am curious as to just how much or how little coloring you did with this footage since I remember how you've disavowed the superflat picture profiles. Shane,
