Matching drone footage to BMCC footage
What shutterspeed does the BMCC have?
I need to film with a drone and match my BMCC footasge filmed with 180 shutter angle to the drone footage.
Any tips on how to match the drone to the BMCC footage? I know its impossible but I do want to do the best possible.
The drone can adjust asa and shutterspeed…
We will be using the PRODROME.

My sense of this is, after shooting in the same fps, do your matching in post. Direction of light is important if the drone footage is of the same subject as the BMCC. I don’t think achieving a good match is impossible. IMHO, viewers will accept aerial footage cut with ground-based footage as long as you balance the gain, setup, color, etc. You can certainly get very close using DaVinci Resolve.

One tip which served me well was to put ND over the lens of my GoPro when shooting in bright sunlight. It tricks the GoPro into slowing down the shutter speed.

If you use a go pro camera in pro tune raw mode there is a LUT that goes a long way toward matching the footage with the BMCC Raw look. not perfect but a great first step in matching. Just google gopro to bmcc lut.
