i want to know more about the location and what's happen there.
it's interesting, but i think the compositon doesn't work very well with the cutted person right down. i had chosen a lower angle...

Hey Thomas, good point about the camera angle, I think you are right. I was just being lazy probably. This was taken during a HD video shoot for a "promo"/commercial for the NBC show "American Gladiator". The guy holding the camera is the DP (Director of Photography), the guy with the ruler is the camera operator, he is measuring for focus. During the take he will pull focus manually. The cutoff guy on the floor is providing wind from a fan to blow her hair around so she looks like she is outside.
I am the Visual Effects Supervisor for this project. We shot the talent on greenscreen and are now in the process of compositing them into stock footage backgrounds. I was just walking around with my camera shooting some candid stuff during the shoot.

Supercroma shooting!!!! wow!!! I use to work on cinema in Spain. For me the best of this photo is the way you show the camera show, with the DOP and the handcamera gadget like in "Babel" and focus guy with the meter. I love the green of croma, that shows the "new cinema".
I hope finally you have a good work with effects!!!

Wow, there is nothing like taking advantage of professional lighting. I like the expressions that you have captured in the various players' faces and how the focus is all on the girl. That is, of course, execept for the bloke with the tape measure who is concentrating on his job. I maybe would have liked the composition to be framed from a little lower viewpoint, maybe just below camera man eye height, but this is very minor.
