How to tell your stories most effectively?
It's very simple, by using cine filters from Schneider-Kreuznach. You are not convinced? Well, that's no problem.
Here are the three most important reasons for using cine filters for your jobs.
- The greatest latitude for creative opportunities comes from having the real world as your source. With the real world you have infinite potential to control the image, as you have so much more information available than you will ever have later. If you haven’t gotten it right in camera, it may be impossible to resurrect it in post.
- It gives you more control over the final image. All too often, the cinematographer has moved on to the next production and isn’t involved in the final edit. This combination means others are often in a position to alter the look in ways that may not adhere to the original vision. Putting optical filter effects into the mix means your vision will be that much more likely to make it into the final result.
- It saves you time and money. Finally, a basic feature of filters is that once used, your job ofcreating the effect is done. Filters provide the look you want in-camera without the need to spend additional resources in post, often for considerable time and cost savings. When looked at this way, there isn’t much else that so effectively combines ease of use with the powerful ability to impart the greatest impact to your images as the simple use of camera filters.
