I'm working on a film in which is very much in the style of American Graffiti or Rebel Without a Cause. We'd like to get the look of the 2-perf Techniscope film stock from the 70's era inside the EX1. So I've lowered the detail (still experimenting on WHICH setting is a good balance between too soft and too sharp), and desaturated the colors a bit. But the gamma and matrix settings are what's giving me the toughest problems. Does anyone have any suggestions?
And I'm really liking the look of 1/32 shutter vs. 1/48. Is there any reason I shouldn't use it? It seems to dampen the stobiness of 24p a lot more.
Normally I shoot with Bill Ravens' Tru Color picture profile which gives neutral settings out of the EX1. My question is should I shoot with the picture profile I'm trying to develop OR should I shoot neutral and use someone like Film FX or Magic Bullet?
This is the one subject I wish the Vortex Media DVD would have covered a lot more in depth or for that matter Sony's manual.
