Except the strikes already drained our resources. I’m a camera operator, our union was not on strike but we were equally impacted by the strikes. Our contract is up for negotiation this year. I can’t afford another strike. I’m already looking for work outside the film industry. What we need is to align the renewal of all entertainment union contracts so we all strike together at the same time.
My Roku TV is basically unusable at this point. Opening Netflix takes about 10 minutes to get to the main menu. Then launching the video is like rolling a D12. Except it lands on a 1 every time and crashes. It also restarts randomly for “updates” in the middle of watching something. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it!
The trick is to use a different filter than other scenes. It doesn’t really matters what filter, as long as it’s different. Also, cinematographers use different in-camera setups, different lenses, usually they use old school lenses with chromatic aberrations and distortions and so on, plus physical filters in from of the lens. They can also change the lighting, set decoration, actors can change their behavior, editors can change the rhythm and so on.
The blurrier-gray-ish filter is usually a low contrast or blooming glass filter in front of the lens. Basically a piece of glass very lightly frosted that disperses the light around a bit before hitting the film/sensor.
