"the itty bitty titty committy" feature film









hollywood goes
europe style


keep it fast, beautiful and cheap seems like a motto you hear on all shows. well, on the "itty bitty titty committee" (dop: christine maier, dir: jamie babbit, prod:"power up") this motto became really serious. we shot eight pages a day - and you won't notice it when you see the film! the local keygrip lawson deming and best boy electric steve irvine and the rest of the crew really pushed the limits to get the job done well. if you are looking for really good guys in los angeles, send them a mail!
as posted in the workshop blog we used alot of baton striplights. christine maier was so happy with the result we ended up using them for almost all night interior scenes. we were shooting alot in small spaces with low ceilings so blanket lites and the rest of the kinoflo package came in real handy. the weather worked out really well for us - beautiful los angeles winter light. the translight we were using in scene in a tv studio was something i hadn't used in europe before. it looks really real and is easy to handle.
there was hardly time to take photos, but here is a small look into the production plus some shots from LA. "the itty foto diary"
