  • Achieving the “Are You Afraid Of The Dark? look from 90’s

    Posted by Flynn Papandrea on August 29, 2018 at 9:49 pm

    Hey cows,

    I’m going to be shooting a parody sketch of the show Are You Afraid Of The Dark? and I’d like to be able to use my camera, which is Gh4, to shoot this thing. I’m not sure if the show was shot on film, but it does say on the wiki that it was single camera, and I’m assuming with modern technology we can figure this out together. I have three 300w Arri lights, a bounce, small LED battery powered light, Canon Nifty 50mm, Sigma 18-35 1.8 art lens, Metabones to help with an extra stop, along with adobe AE and Avid.
    Any tips?

    Best,
    Flynn

    More than likely it was shot to Betacam and mastered on half-inch, so that’s the look you’d want to emulate.
