Check out the earlier Shot of Lindsay before the light got to high ,,, You can see the Light is in his eyes and a Huge improvement ,,, Good reason for getting up earlier on a REAL shoot .
On a Movie we would have started about 2 hours earlier than we did ( a hell of a thing to do to new crew on the First day ) ,, When the sun was just peeping over the Horizon , doing the wide towards the Sea and then the Straight in Cover and CU Over's looking west , leaving the Ladies CU back lit and the sun by then would be high enough to be out of the lens ..
The Director was happy with just the Straight in coverage ,,, But I thought it might be a case of just one take each on the overs so he could see what they are like in the edit , may as well learn as much as you can .... I didnt like the Light on Richards CU as it was getting tooo high ,,,( If you have to Go flat Light with the sun behind you ,,, It is almost bearable if the Sun is very low having just risen with maybe a shadow or two giving it contrast ) And the reverse Cu on Judy had a bit of light cloud defusing the backlight ,,, not ideal ,,, But we needed to move on ,,, had a lot to do ,,, on DAY one .
Here I was Thinking " I suppose If I hide my face in this thick UV cream the Girls coming down the Beach wont notice I am such an OLD Dude ,,,, It Didnt work ... they were wondering who the Old due was with White cream all over his face ,,, Oh well back to Cinematography .
