With a lifespan of up to 200 times longer than standard filters and at more than double the thickness (180 microns), Zircon filters are not only slower to fade, they are durable and easy to use, too. There are 12 filters in the Zircon range; the five Minus Green filters remove the green casts often associated with LED lighting when using a digital camera. The four Warm Amber filters correct a range of different color temperature white LEDs so that they appear like Tungsten. While the three Diffusion filters offer different strengths of diffusion specifically designed for LEDs.

This summer, the boys are back, but on the big screen this time, as Vinny Chase (Adrian Grenier) makes his feature directorial debut. The project reunites director/creator Doug Ellin and cinematographer Steven Fierberg, ASC. Fierberg (The Affair, Secretary, Love and Other Drugs) shot the first 25 episodes of the show, setting a di tinctive look that was built around the ensemble nature of most scenes, subtly underscoring a blend of comedy and drama that audiences loved. “Entourage is meant to look real,” says Fierberg. “The actors are not glamorized. Doug never asks whether it’s funny – he asks whether it’s true. And that’s one of the reasons we work well together. The lighting should always look like it does in life – natural.” That’s not to say the series look – a documentary-style camera reacting to the action as if it were unfolding organically – remained identical when Entourage made the leap to the big screen. “When we started in 2004, nobody was doing handheld like we did, and now everybody is,” says Fierberg. “It was the right choice at the time, but I didn’t want to bore the audience. I wanted to challenge the audience. We shot the feature with a more dramatic approach, using more crane shots, dollying and wide lenses than we ever did on the series. And almost no handheld. It turned out to be exactly the right thing to do.” 6 There was never a question as to the capture medium. As he had on the series, Fierberg used 35mm film. “Doug asked me what would make the women look their best,” says Fierberg. “There’s no question in my mind that film is more flattering, and it allows the audience to emotionally connect more easily with the characters. I’m convinced that it’s harder for audiences to make that connection with something shot digitally. The format was 3-perf spherical. Fierberg felt that anamorphic would lend the images an abstraction that would diminish the cinematic realism he was after. The lenses were generally Cookes, and occasionally, a Fujinon 18-85 mm zoom. “The Cookes are sharp but very flattering, and the Fujinon is a gorgeous lens but unbelievably sharp,” he says. “In combination with film, the Fujinon looked great, but with digital it might be too sharp for portraiture. Film is very forgiving. Film grain is soft and lush, like the actress’s face.” “Kodak spent a 100 years developing the science to make faces look good,” he says. “Think of the shot in Casablanca where the camera pushes in on Ingrid Bergman as she turns to the lens for her close-up. You’re emotionally overwhelmed by that gorgeous image. That’s what film does. That’s what makes us go to the movies – we want to emotionally connect.” You can see Entourage in theaters now.

He earned a journalism degree from Long Island University in 1958. Fisher worked for a local newspaper for six months until the Draft Board invited him to spend two years in the army . He served as the base journalist at the Womens Army Corps Training Center in Anniston, Alabama. That experience gave him a different view of the world. Several weeks before he was scheduled to complete his military obligation, Fisher answered an ad for a six-month job in Los Angeles. He was hired to interview 40 members of the American Society of Cinematographers and write a tribute book that was presented to a member of the film industry who was retiring. Fisher estimates that he has subsequently written between 3,000 and 4,000 magazine articles about cinematographers and other narrative and documentary filmmakers. His work has taken him to all 50 states and 17 countries around the world. He was made an honorary member of ASC in 2003. Fisher is 12 one of seven living honorary members. Four of the others are astronauts. Fisher and Italian journalist Lorenzo Codelli recently coauthored “The Art of Cinematography”, a book envisioned by Vittorio Storaro, ASC, AIC . Each of them wrote profiles of 75 cinematographers dating back to the dawn of the industry, including how they and one of their films influence the art form. There are also a number of essays describing the evolution of the art form, an array of images that illustrate the words and a DVD with shots from all of the films featured in profiles The Cine Gear Expo Legacy Lifetime Achievement Award will be presented to Fisher on friday evening, June 5 during the VIP Awards Reception at The Paramount Theater Paseo Grounds.

Cinetech Italiana Premieres new Lightweight Dolly www.cinetech.it Cinetech Italiana has chosen Cine Gear Expo 2015 for the world premiere of their new lightweight dolly, Capinera. After observing the innovations, changes and challenges of today’s productions involving smaller crews, smaller vehicles, smaller cameras and zooms, Cinetech came up with the new dolly. Capinera compliments Cinetech’s other existing products, since there are still many situations in productions where heavier cameras and lenses are used and require classic camera dollies. Cinetech designed Capinera to allow visual storytellers to achieve their creative goals by focusing on safety, freedom, and building it lightweight with a small footprint - to reach as many locations as possible. For decades they have worked to improve the features and the design of its dollies to better serve the people who use them every day.

It allows barn-dooring and accepts 7.5-inch accessories, to sculpt the light to the right specifications. “The Source Four LED Fresnel changes the way you think about lighting,” says Fixtures Product Manager Jim Uphoff. “It has the comforts of traditional Fresnels – like light framing – but it outputs incredibly bright, energy-efficient light with the boldest color or tunable white that flawlessly illuminates skin. It’s a must-have for the studio.” The Fresnel adapter expands the practicality of the Source Four LED. By adding an adapter, attachment or accessory, it becomes a cyc light, zoom-able spotlight, fixed-focus profile, or dozens of other options. It enhances any lighting inventory.. 13 CINE GEAR EXPO NEWS 2015 The Park is Open: Jurassic World John Schwartzman, ASC recently collaborated with director Colin Trevorrow to bring movie fans the next Jurassic installment - Jurassic World, which is in theaters next week. Schwartzman proposed shooting on film. “I knew the contrast ratios of day exteriors in Hawaii (where production began), and almost everything we were going to shoot in Hawaii was day exterior,” he says. “We were there for the big vistas and the scope, and for all of the things that you can’t do on stage. Nothing else was going to capture the 18,000 footcandles in the highlights of the sky, and the 20 footcandles in the shadows of the jungle, in the same shot. I didn’t have to choose to preserve either the highlights or the shadows. I knew that if I placed my exposure where I thought it should be, I was going to have all of that information there.” Many interior scenes were filmed on set in Louisiana. In addition to shooting the majority of the film on 4-perf 35mm, Schwartzman shot roughly 150,000 feet of 5-perf 65mm film to take advantage of the additional dynamic range and resolution. “I used the 65mm camera if I knew I had a wide shot TLS Offers a Wide Range of Equipment Solutions www.truelens.co.uk 14 True Lens Services (TLS) was founded in 2001 to service a growing demand from high-end filmmakers for bespoke and specialist lenses as well as support equipment. TLS has since built a  comprehensive servicing, design and manufacturing facility supplying the international film and television industries. Additional services include repairing grip equipment, tripods,  heads, jibs and other gear that is regularly in need of preventative maintenance. Procam, the UK’s largest camera rental facility, acquired TLS at the end of 2014.  Procam has made significant staff and training investments in TLS. With an ever-increasing focus across the television and film communities on lens quality and their contribution to the final film look, TLS represents a perfect fit for Procam.  The acquisition links with Procam’s desire to improve the customer’s experience from consulting on equipment and workflow, through offering a broad kit range and top-notch customer service. in which we were either going to change the background or introduce dinosaurs,” he says. “Why not give ILM (Industrial Light & Magic) the master shot on a format so large that they could do a move across it if they wanted to? In Hawaii, we would generally use the 65mm for our master. When we went in for the coverage, I would go to 35mm.” ILM, the venerable effects house that brought the dinosaurs to life, approved, says Schwartzman. “They wanted the dynamic range, and all the subtlety and color gamut that negative film has versus digital. I knew that Panavision had refurbished 65mm cameras for P.T. Anderson and Mihai Malaimare on The Master.” Trevorrow, known for Safety Not Guaranteed, is now a convert, according to the cinematographer. “We shot our 65mm tests at Panavision, sent the negative over the FotoKem, and saw it projected the next day,” he says. “It was like, ‘Oh, my god. Why aren’t we doing this on every movie?’” ProductionHUB Makes Finding Crew and Vendors Easy www.productionhub.com It’s now easier than ever to book crew, find freelancers or get hired digitally on ProductionHUB!

CINE GEAR EXPO NEWS 2015 ENVIRONMENT IS KEY FOR CLAUDIO MIRANDA, ASC Claudio Miranda, ASC, shot the groundbreaking: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Life of Pi (for which he received an Oscar® for Best Cinematography), Oblivion and Tomorrowland. Claudio Miranda, ASC, is known for embracing new technology to produce his hallmark imagery. One process he’s been pioneering on recent projects takes its roots from the first silent films—a 21st century reinterpretation of classic rear screen projection and poor man’s process. The results are both eye-catching and ground breaking. By mixing projection and flexible LED screens with pre-shot media, Miranda is providing cast and crew the benefit of working inside seamless, photo-realistic environments while on stage. For Disney’s Tomorrowland, Miranda reached out to DPS Cinema for the technical support and assistance in building his largest media enhanced environment to date. On stage, I believe that actors are always more comfortable being in an “ environment that’s lit appropriately, and the best way you can do that is to kind of put them in that environment. LED walls give you that flexibility. If you have the backgrounds preshot, you can actually place the talent in a lighting environment that is photo real, and the whole thing grounds itself to reality. I feel it’s just the best way to make people stick to the surfaces they’re supposed to be on. Plus the pace of production is unbelievably fast. On this project, instead of rotating the set, we kept the camera in the same position and then rotated the stage platform and media. That made it much more efficient for us. ” Claudio Miranda, ASC After completing Tomorrowland Exclusively From Direct Tel: 818 351-4904 [email protected] www.dpsinc.com/cinema Burbank New York Soon: Atlanta Visit S113 to see how DPS Enhanced Environments are used on films like Tomorrowland 19 CINE GEAR EXPO NEWS 2015 SUPER 8 STILL IN DEMAND AS IT TURNS 50 The format that provided the creative testing grounds for many filmmakers and captured their first endeavors in motio pictures – including such mainstream Hollywood icons as J.J. Abrams, Steven Spielberg, David Fincher, Tim Burton, Peter Jackson, Michael Bay, Christopher Nolan, and numerous others – is celebrating its 50th birthday this year, and shows no signs of slowing down. Super 8 remains a beloved capture medium for a variety of applications that elicits a distinctive nostalgic look, encourages experimentation, and drives creative exploits like no other format to date. It started in 1965 when Eastman Kodak Company introduced Super 8mm, a revolutionary new format that utilized an improved cartridge system that is still used today. It transformed the home movie phenomenon of the 1950s, and soon everyone was a filmmaker “8mm cameras were originally made for consumers, but evolved from being a home movie format into an educational tool as well as a professional production option,” notes Rhonda Vigeant, owner and marketing director for Pro8mm, a company that has passionately served the 8mm community since 1981. “The format continues to be used by amateurs, professionals, film fanatics and some of the world’s most famous filmmakers. Super 8mm has made a strong mark in the entertainment industry. Features, television shows, commercials, music videos, documentaries, branded entertainment content and extreme 20 sports footage have relied on the small gauge film. Its unique look can be seen on recent episodes of American Horror Story, American Idol, The Americans and Aquarius. Super 8’s feature credits include the Oscar®-winning JFK and Argo, as well as The Dictator, Super 8, The Fighter, and the upcoming I Saw the Light. The recent documentaries Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck and Brand: A Second Coming depended on 8mm to stitch their stories together. The allure of this analog format elicits fond memories for a wide range of people who grew up shooting Super 8. Vigeant adds, “Super 8 film has also captured the attention of a new generation wanting a more permanent format for recording some of life’s milestones, as well as filmmakers who want to continue the tradition of shooting films on film. There is a understanding that in our digital world, an analog reel of film is the only proven archival medium.” Kodak’s Andrew Evenski, president and general manager of Entertainment & Commercial Films, echoes that sentiment. “Super 8 has defied obscurity. It launched many filmmakers careers, captured some of life’s most important moments, and has preserved art for five decades. These are the same reasons Super 8 endures today, and will remain a strong format of choice in the future.” CINE GEAR EXPO NEWS 2015 NEWS RELEASES Redrock Micro Gives Encore Demonstration of Halo store.redrockmicro.com Redrock is giving an encore demonstration of Halo, the company’s scene mapping and focus tracking system.

Sony presents an original approach to 35mm optical systems design for still & motion picture shooting. With the DSLR revolution came a dramatic increase of still photography lenses for motion picture production use. Widely established still photography lens systems designs are highly optimized for still shooting, but frequently lack important features for motion picture production. With the E‑Mount, Sony launched a different approach to lens design that gives equal importance to motion picture production. Jon Fauer, ASC, award-winning director and cinematographer, author of more than a dozen best-selling books on cinematography and digital imaging, will discuss with session presenters Motoyuki Ohtake of Sony, and Richard Schleuning of Carl Zeiss.

A Q&A with Producer Mark Magidson will follow the film, moderated by Jon Fauer. Shot in 25 countries on six continents, Baraka is a series of stunningly photographed scenes that capture what director Ron Fricke calls “a guided mediation on humanity.” Critic Roger Ebert once wrote: “If man sends another Voyager to the distant stars and it can carry only one film on board, that film might be Baraka.” 57 CINE GEAR EXPO NEWS 2015 SPONSORS INDUSTRY PARTNERS PLATINUM GOLD SILVER MEDIA PARTNERS BRONZE Insurance West SUPPORTING 58 ICG MAGAZINE Congratulations to the creators and cast of Tomorrowland.

CION offers incredible image control for all types of production, including “flat” shooting modes. But CION can shoot the world it sees, the way we see it, directly in-camera which results in a minimum of post-production correction. It draws upon timeless ways of shooting, the artfulness of image capture, where light, color and nature merge to create a deep filmic richness, but with the incredible speed and convenience of a digital workflow. 4K Sensor with 12 Stops of Dynamic Range ProRes 444 and 422 Recording AJA Raw output up to 4K 120fps Interchangeable PL Lens Mount Ergonomic and Lightweight Open Connectivity Find out more at www.aja.com and visit us at Booth #S232
