Just over a year ago I went to Dungeness with the Letus Extreme and EX1<\/a>. A stunning place on the South Coast of England, there’s nothing else like it. Totally unique. From the monolithic\u00a0Nuclear\u00a0power station to the tiny cottages, the derelict sheds and boats…it’s just a magnificent place to film.<\/p>\n

I went back there on Sunday and dragged my dad along, so he could spend some quality time with me \ud83d\ude09 and so I could have a subject for my film. I told him this when we got down there!<\/p>\n

This time I took with me the Sony EX3 and the lovely little Cinemek G35…mind you not so little on the EX3 with fully rigged up on my Zacuto system…<\/p>\n

The great thing about the Cinemek G35\u00a0<\/a>is it has no moving parts, so a lot less to go wrong. It also produces a stunning film like image. Not as sharp as the Letus Ultimate or as light efficient, but a totally different look. Like using a different film stock and that is completely what I was going for today.<\/p>\n

I also love the way this adaptor looks on the EX3 with the Zacuto rig, like a rocket launcher. Damn sexy (for geeks anyway!)<\/p>\n

Originally I graded this black and white then half way through realised it would look so much better with a dirt 70’s grade to it. I am making a short “how to” film, about how I did this with Magic Bullet Looks, for RGTV which will be available soon.<\/a> All the vignettes are done in the grade.<\/p>\n

The film stars both myself and my dad and has a semi-narrative to it, about our\u00a0similarities ut also our differences…hope that doesn’t sound pretentiious.<\/p>\n
