"We shot using the CINE4 gamma setting on the camera with saturation down slightly – we used the Fluorescent matrix. In camera I turned up the blues to get a nice purple from the room. The secret of nice images at Martin’s factory was taking advantage... [Read more...]

Kevin Shahinian
Our fifth winner of the Z-KUDOS award is Kevin Shahinian, founder and lead producer of Pacific Pictures. According to Kevin, "Dil Jaanta Hai (The Heart Knows)" was his second Bollywood wedding concept film and his hope was to depart from the original with something different. Kevin’s inspirational and entertaining piece quickly caught our eye and we have awarded him with $500 worth of Zacuto products as the 5th Z-KUDOS winner.
“As a small studio, it can be difficult to get your work seen and this spotlight is a real privilege,” explained Kevin when we first told him about winning the Z-KUDOS award. “Winning the Z-KUDOS award is a huge (& unexpected) honor. A big thank you to Steve and the entire Zacuto family for their continued support of our work and other filmmakers like us.”

CineGear 09 Post Mortem
I arrived in LA on Thursday June 4th, Jens, Mandy James and I came from Zacuto HQ in Chicago. Got to say compared to last year’s CineGear with 105 degree weather, this was a pleasure, it being 64 degrees every day. Immediately we took a 1 hour hike at the Runyon Canyon, one of my favorite things to do in Hollywood, it’s really steep and challenging. Then it was off to the Avalon Hotel for our Zacuto LA appreciation party. We’d like to thank the Avalon for throwing a great party including DJ, this special event was planned by Avalon’s Helen Ryan. It was a lot of fun and we met some of our friends and fans from on the web.

Absolute Trailer
Great trailer from our buddy Mark Dawson across the pond in the UK. I became very interested in Mark’s work when he made “Behind the Night” I thought it was incredibly unique in the way it creates massive anticipation for these two lovers to get together. Marks work is exceptional and he has this very sexy, steamy style of shooting (Atom Egoyan meets Zalman King), I’m sure this movie is going to be hot. The cast, the crew, very first rate. Can’t wait to see the finished film Mark, I’m sure it’s going to be “Absolute”ly wonderful.
