Okay thanks. Do you think i should not the DP use autofocus on future shoots and shoot at a super deep DOF instead? Cause a lot of people hate the deep DOF look and i was told before that it doesnt look as good. So what can i do to make it look to viewers?

Okay thanks for the advice and insight, I know you are trying to help :).
It’s just when I made short films in the past, I was told things like, the footage is too overexposed without an ND filter, or the camera is too still and needs more movement, or the footage is too shaky, etc.
So I am trying to correct the past problems I had on past short films, based on other people’s opinions.
Now, if I am to do this Robert Rodriguez style, as someone told me to before, how do I allow the shortcomings to not be a problem for not having all the gear and luxuries?
How do viewers not have a problem with other filmmakers going very low budget, but when I do, they see it as shortcomings, that need to have more money spent on additional gear and things like that?

Actually it turns out that the slow motion footage was shot in 29 fps. Perhaps the DP misunderstood when I wanted him to shoot 60 fps.
Could this cause any issues in for the editing?

I did find requirements to say shoot against a plain solid background. Well that is out since I shot in a park with lots of different trees.

Okay thanks. What are the requirements exactly? A lot of people talk about how it’s really good, and don’t really get into certain requirements as much.

I’ve taken a look at some examples but there is also a weird warping effect too if anyone knows what is about. What do you think?
-
Okay thanks, but I was told before that my footage looked too overexposed, so how do you get the viewer to think that overexposed footage without ND filters is okay? How do you get the viewer to think that the low budget is okay, rather than seeing it as an error?

Okay thanks, but B & H told me before that they just sold products and they do not rent out though.

As for rental stores that can ship anywhere within 24 hours, where are these places? I cannot find a store that has ND filters of any lens size that can ship that fast, for an okay price that meets the budget.

Unless maybe I am looking at it the wrong way, and you can shoot an entire scene in one hour, depending on how quickly everyone works?
