View Full Version : Stargate TV series Camera Kit Joaquin August 28th, 2008, 12:04 AM Hi guys, I want to know what brand/kind of camera does the tv series Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis use Thanks Kit Alex Ratson September 24th, 2008, 08:16 PM I was in at Panavisions Burnaby office back in March and they were in prep for SGA. Looked like they were running two Pana-vised F900's. SGA is now wrapped for the season so you probably could get a hold of the DP's (Jim Menard & Michael Blundell) and ask them any specifics you may have and actually get a response. Cheers, Alex Jack Zhang September 25th, 2008, 07:49 PM Often they shoot in 60i for high motion action to be post processed back to 24p. James Martin October 21st, 2008, 03:35 AM I may be wrong here, but I believe SG-1 was probably 35mm and Atlantis is definitely shot on video (the extremely blurry 360 degree-shutter-type shots giving that one away). There is a chance that SG-1 moved to Video later in its run (as did Star Trek Enterprise) but up until a few years back I'm sure 35mm was the norm for most TV in the US - even sitcoms. Anyone from the US TV sphere know better? Jack Zhang October 24th, 2008, 04:01 PM For the majority of SG-1's first few seasons, it was 35mm film. Heck, Entourage still uses film while Flight of the Conchords is using I think HDCAM combined with a DVX or HVX in the first few episodes. Now all Stargate productions are HDCAM SR stuff. Only Sanctuary (The TV version) uses RED ONE to acquire now. |
