        I (James) have asked Chivo many, many times. Why don’t you convince him to be on? 🙂

        Yes, we’ll be doing a TURNING THE TABLES episode with @dmullenasc in the future on TRUE GRIT. He’s fantastic!

            We would love to do that – it would just have to be arranged.

              Dick did some second unit shots on 1984. He was one of Roger’s best friends since the time that they started out. Dick shot the rats in 1917 and Roger had no idea that his phobia (his room 101!) was rats. Despite this, he got some great footage!

                We will be in Toronto in June. We’ll be doing a Q&A after a screening of Shawshank, introducing another film chosen by Roger and doing a book signing of BYWAYS.

                  Has anyone been getting the “Too many re-directs” error? I’m trying to figure out what’s going on. If anyone is a wizard at bbpress, and wants to lend a hand, please contact me at webmaster @ rogerdeakins.com.

                  Thanks!

                          Our DIT monitor is always a P3 monitor. Before we shoot, I have not only this monitor (and the back up) calibrated, but I also get the other monitors on set, which are normally Rec709, calibrated as close as possible. AND, I have the editorial monitors calibrated as well. If things start to drift during the production, I arrange for another round of calibration. It’s very important to us that everyone is seeing what we’re shooting since we are shooting it as we want to see it in the end. We don’t plan to “fix” things in the DI.

                                I haven’t seen anything. When did you send it?

                                  We’ve seen this before on several of our movies. For instance, one night we decided to watch Shawshank Redemption and could not watch the version on Amazon. I made many phone calls in the following weeks and happily, they remastered the title. Hopefully, that’s what is showing now on Amazon – but we’re too scared to check! 🙂  It’s really hard when you realize your work is being shown without the timing that you did. There are so many different versions of deliverables that are coming out these days and sometimes they don’t go back to the director or DP for reference. It’s heartbreaking.
