gaff work on 16mm - “Let’s Go Out Together” (2025)
running HMIs on film turned out gorgeous, especially for such a ruminant story. I learned a lot working on 16mm, hope to light on film again soon!

This one was tough because the location was just full of windows and reflections, but we managed to find creative ways to make the shot work~
