Nikki HallerNARRATOR
The color and tone of a film stock can vary a lot.
Nikki HallerNARRATOR
Cinestill has cool temperature, so it's much more blue.
Nikki HallerNARRATOR
Kodak Gold is much warmer, so it's much more yellow or orange.
Nikki HallerNARRATOR
The tone can also change depending on the contrast of a film stock.
Nikki HallerNARRATOR
Of course, skin tones vary a lot, so it's not always simple, but generally we want a film stock that doesn't have too much personality.
Nikki HallerNARRATOR
Any of the portrait stocks will work brilliantly for this, but it's probably better to stay down in the 160 to 400 mark to make sure the image stays relatively sharp.
Nikki HallerNARRATOR
Stocks like Cinestill and Ektar wouldn't be ideal for this kind of work, because Ektar makes light skin tones red, and Cinestill's style would generally only work in unnatural light, unless you want it to look weird.
Nikki HallerNARRATOR
Fujipro 400H used to be another great portrait stock, but sadly, it's discontinued.
Gabe SachsHOST
I also saw...
Gabe SachsHOST
You know, Arvin from Cinestill, who is just as big a camera nerd as we are.
Gabe SachsHOST
I mean, just great.
Gabe SachsHOST
Like he'll find these things and he'll also send things and go, have you tried this? Have you tried that? And I happily tried some Cinestill on this last shoot I did.
Gabe SachsHOST
And I just I love it.
Gabe SachsHOST
So that was super fun.
Kimiyasu MorikawaGUEST
Yeah.
Kimiyasu MorikawaGUEST
Apparently, Kentmere is more frequently used compared to Cinestill, which is, yeah, from my perspective, is quite surprising as well.
Raf LopesHOST
Yeah.
Raf LopesHOST
And it's also interesting to observe that every single brand had a decrease.
Alex LokesHOST
It was incredibly contrasty at the same time.
Alex LokesHOST
The commercial ones, the one that I've actually used is Cinestill's DF96.
Alex LokesHOST
And you know what? It's not bad.
Alex LokesHOST
I think it would actually work really well in this situation.
NoahHOST
Yeah.
Stephen DeVriesGUEST
and they wanted it was a photo and video project so i dp'd and directed and did the video side but i brought in a photographer a local photographer named carrie norton that you guys may know but they wanted film they wanted it to be shot on film And so we worked with CineStill to bring that film in, but that's the look that they said that the demographic that's getting on Pinterest and finding inspiration for, so this one is a party.
Stephen DeVriesGUEST
The idea was to inspire you to have a party themed after this movie so that when the new movie comes out, you have all this inspiration online to do a big party and then I'll go see the new movie, right? So this is this like paid advertisement through them.
Stephen DeVriesGUEST
Right, right.
