And THANK YOU for using Spoiler tags! I seriously can't say enough how much I appreciate it.
Example of Skyfall gaffer John Higgins shine some light with Deankins on Aston Martin.

You are all very welcome. No problem for me, but I´m afraid you are gonna see something sooner or later...
;) :D
Very interesting photos from Oujda... I think those rigs are not to film conversations, we must expect some action there.
Take a look at the city:
The cameras:
So you seen digital camera's and you're still sure they shoot on film? Since when can't pictures be confirmations? For me this is quite clear. James Bond 24 will be shot digitally (also easier for IMAX transfer), and that's how I like it. The wunderful quality/resolution of "Skyfall" was simply marvellous. People called me crazy when I said it would be shot digitally, because fans trusted a cinematographer's word (Roger Deakins) when he's not even onboard anymore for Bond 24 (ridiculous that fans took one tiny forum message on Deakins' forum for granted). Well, I can't be bothered. Visually, we'll get another stunning Bond film now we basically know it'll be shot digitally.
Seconded!!
Absolutely!!!! =))
This is more like it! Nice find!

But that's what I've been saying all along in previous posts! We don't even know for sure if "Octopli" is Deakin's forummember name on that forum! People took that message for granted way way too soon.
Secondly, Deakins can tell you a lot. Fact is, he is NOT director of photography for "Bond 24". He bowed out himself, so he has nothing to say about.....cinematographical decisions that in the end will be made by Hoyte van Hoytema. The pictures with the ARRI ALEXA camera's say enough: "Bond 24" will be shot digitally.
Thanks @PanchitoPistoles for the pics :-)! Please note that "Skyfall" was shot digitally 100%. Only Danny Kleinman's main titles were shot "normal". They will not mix film with digital for "Bond 24". It'll be the same as with "Skyfall": 100% digital.
Also, there's also some logic reasoning that could have been detected. Why would EON Productions suddenly go back shooting on film if the film was A) a Thunderball-esque financial success and B) got the Bond franchise its first ever Oscar cinematography nomination? And if a cinematographer like van Hoytema says he can do both, film and digital, then you really think the Bond producers urge van Hoytema to go back.....to shooting on film?
Anyway, I'm very very happy again :-D!
That was the past. The pictures of the present are new proof.
This picture shows a single ARRI ALEXA camera used by Roger Deakins for non-IMAX scenes in "Skyfall":
These are the same ARRI ALEXA digital camera's in IMAX set-up for "Bond 24":
I think it's fairly conclusive. Cinematographers usually don't combine/mix digital camera's with scenes shot on film. Just have a look at this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_shot_on_digital_video_prior_to_2015 . The pictures give fairly conclusive answers.
Yes, that could very well be.
They have been filming QOS already during the summer of 2007 in Florence. Filming the Palio. Principal filming will commence December 6th. But if you think nothing happens before that, then that's slightly naive no ;-)?
Anyway, this picture is quite clear no?
Pre-production on a film, especially on a film the scale of a James Bond film can take a long time and be very extensive... with principal photography set to begin in less than a month - no doubt the local production crews in those cities are hard at work obtaining camera rigs - or as seen above, building them.. and along with that comes testing the rigs (with cameras attached) to make sure everything works, that way when it comes time for Mendes and company (or the 2nd Unit) to come rolling in, they don't sit around waiting for stuff to be built - especially when it comes to action sequences - those can get very complicated to shoot, and building custom rigs to get a certain kind of shot can take some time..
I understand you. But no dear @Sandy, I don't need a drawing :-). I have looked extensively on the comments of hymnsy's most recent four pictures he put online there. I think you are wrong, sorry @Sandy. I did not find "someone commenting on another picture talking about the cameras who went home today because his work was finished."
Perhaps my....excitement sound a bit uncredible. But that is not my problem. I think @PanchitoPistoles did a nice job.
As long as the lair fits well in the story :-P
