This post was written by Oliver Janesh Christiansen from Cinefade.
We sit down with Oscar-winning cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt ASC and find out why he was excited to use the Cinefade VariND on the feature film Devotion as a tool to control exposure without affecting iris.
“When I heard about the Cinefade, I said, ‘Oh my god, this is a tool that I can actually control exposure with while keeping the iris position where I want for storytelling purposes,’ which in my opinion is really what it’s for,” cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt said. “The iris position has an enormous effect on how you tell the story because it controls depth of field. I was really excited to use the tool for that reason.”
