"PUNCH DRUNK"
Fidget Films
Director: Benjamin Kent
Producers: Rana Yousif, Russel Dobkin
S16mm - 1.85
The story is based on the popular characters Punch and Judy.
I used Kodak Vision 2 7217 200 ASA (rated at 160 ASA) and the new Kodak Vision 3 7219 500 ASA (rated at 400 ASA)
I was very impressed with the increase latitude of the new Vision 3 stock, and especially with the grain reduction, which is great for a S16mm project.
I used an 85 filter for the exterior scenes which I replaced sometimes for an 81EF to cool the mood slightly.
I also had a net behing the lens for some shots, like the ones in the dance scenes.
That gave me a softer overall look with some very nice glowing in the highlights and some glaring on practicals.
The film has gone through a 2K DI and is now entering festivals worldwide.
