Vegas or bust…? 48 hour film competetion, round 2!

by C.H.Haskell

48-vegasNever thought I would want to do another one of these insane 48 hour films competitions but I have this little problem where I tend to say “Yes” to just about every oportunity that comes a knocken.  Director Tommaso Cardile from Milano Italy has decided to wrangle a crew from LA and NY to meet up and compete in the in Las Vegas (of all places) 48 hour film competition.  I just got here, and so far so good.  We have DP (yours truley) we are shooting on a EX1 with Letus Extreme 35mm adaptor (thanks to Daniel Dacian) and a set of my Zeiss ZF master primes…I am doing some test now and I really like what I am seeing.  I decided to not shoot on RED this go around due loss of time in Post production and time is the name of the game.  With the EX1 I can shoot native 1080 and Tomasso can cut native and we deliver online in 1080…wonderful.  Locations…check.  We rented pretty impressive penthouse looking condo that over looks the strip, and for cheap too! We are waiting now on the talent to come in from LA and in about 30 minutes we are heading to the 48 HQ to pick up our assignment.  I probably wont have any time to blog along the way but I will share our results as of this sunday we will have a completed film.  Over and out.
