Phedon Papamichael, ASC takes viewers down the Hollywood road less traveled in the black and white road movie, Nebraska<\/i>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

The landscape last November in drought-parched Plainview, Nebraska, was severely muted. Post-harvest, the gently rolling fields running off to the horizon were straw-colored, and the town\u2019s grain elevators and brick storefronts were all browns and grays. The town evoked memories of The Last Picture Show<\/i>, its best days many decades past, wind sweeping in off the plains into the main square. A team of filmmakers, many from Hollywood, looked out of place.<\/p>\n

But nothing in this tableau was unfamiliar to director Alexander Payne, who grew up in Omaha and makes capturing places like his hometown a cornerstone of an approach he describes as several parts \u201cdocumentary.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAlexander has a real connection with people and place, and can convey this like no other director I have ever worked with,\u201d key grip Ray Garcia explains. \u201cAlthough the scenes are scripted and worked out with his actors, the many unique faces he includes are people who live in the town. He spends a lot of time observing his locations prior to shooting. So if his pictures feel like we are observing reality, it\u2019s because of this.\u201d<\/p>\n

A big part of Payne\u2019s verisimilitude is cinematographer <\/b>Phedon Papamichael, ASC, who shot the director\u2019s last two (Oscar-winning) films, The Descendants<\/i> and Sideways<\/i>. Those projects revealed aspects of Hawaii and the central coast of California, respectively, that had not been seen much in Hollywood movies. Payne\u2019s latest project, Nebraska<\/i>, turns the cameras on another unique corner of America rarely visited in narrative films.<\/p>\n

Nebraska<\/i> follows a Montana man (Bruce Dern), who, approaching senility, takes a marketing flyer that says that all he has to do to claim a sweepstakes prize is to show up in Lincoln. His son (Will Forte) decides to travel with him, in part as an attempt to patch up their rocky relationship. Along the way, they stop in the old man\u2019s hard-bitten hometown and get caught up in old grievances.<\/p>\n

Papamichael says the choice to shoot the film in black and white \u2013 a rare animal indeed these days for a Hollywood release \u2013 was an instinctual, not intellectual, decision. \u201cAlexander always envisioned [Nebraska<\/i>] in black and white, going back to our earliest conversations, before we made Sideways<\/i>,\u201d he explains. \u201cAlthough the story and the landscapes lend themselves to black and white, we never know what to say when people ask why. When I\u2019m working on stills at home, some of them are better in monochrome. It just seems to feel right.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t necessarily feel right to the film\u2019s distributor, however. Although Payne is one of the rare directors who has maintained final cut (thanks to careful budgetary parameters), when Paramount realized he was serious about choosing black and white, they pulled funding. Eventually the studio came back to the table with a diminished offer of $13 million, and the project was back on track.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Papamichael set about doing tests. Kodak even offered to provide a 400 ASA black-and-white emulsion (which did not work out). But main testing compared the ARRI ALEXA, RED Epic, Eastman Double-X Negative Film 5222, which has a recommended exposure index of 250 in daylight and 200 in tungsten-balanced light, and KODAK VISION3 500T 5219 Color Negative Film with the color drained in post. The 5219 approach compared to other recent black-and-white films The Man Who Wasn\u2019t There<\/i> and Schindler\u2019s List<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Technicolor\u2019s Skip Kimball put the DP\u2019s 5222 test footage through a digital intermediate, identified an ideal contrast level, and projected printed film to establish a benchmark. Knowing that the vast majority of release prints would be digital, the process was followed through to a DCI version. Then Papamichael asked Kimball to match the 5219 and ALEXA footage to the DCI. Kimball found that a grain flavor based on the old 5248 stock worked best. Much later, in the actual DI, the filmmakers were considering a heavier grain overlay, and they had Paramount send over a print of Paper Moon<\/i>, which they split-screen projected, and found that the 5248 grain was matching pretty well.<\/p>\n

Part of the decision to shoot ALEXA was based <\/b>on the system\u2019s low-light capabilities. The filmmakers shot at speeds as high as 1200 ASA, using natural light in the streets of towns like Plainview. To those who insist digital has less latitude, Papamichael notes: \u201cThe black-and-white film stocks we were considering don\u2019t have the latitude of modern color stocks, either. And since the final image would be higher contrast, the curve wasn\u2019t as much of a factor.<\/p>\n

\u201cDigital obviously has advantages in night exteriors and low-light situations,\u201d he continues, \u201cwhich makes the filming process easier. The image on the monitor includes the LUT I set. So I\u2019m able to discuss with [Payne] where we want to go. I\u2019m able to see my final result, almost. Those are all qualities I like. And what some people point to as drawbacks of shooting digitally aren\u2019t a problem when you\u2019re shooting for black and white.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another key aspect was using C Series anamorphic lenses from Panavision. An estimated 80 percent of the movie was done on the wider end of the range, the 40-, 45- or 55-mm focal lengths.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The C Series was introduced in the 1960s. Panavision\u2019s lens guru Dan Sasaki retrofitted them with modern spherical elements to improve contrast and sharpness. He also re-spaced the cylinders to create a more gradual fall-off along the edges. According to 1st AC Jeff Porter, the initial plan was to use a set that Sasaki had fine-tuned for Bojan Bazelli, ASC, on The Lone Ranger<\/i>. When that film\u2019s schedule was extended, Sasaki began working on another set. The Lone Ranger<\/i> wrapped a week prior to Nebraska\u2019s<\/i> start, so in the end, Porter and Papamichael got to choose the best lenses from both sets.<\/p>\n

\u201cDan created an anamorphic lens with classic characteristics that could stand the test of today\u2019s high-resolution digital cameras,\u201d Porter shares. And Papamichael says the lenses have optical qualities that helped take the curse off the digital image. \u201cWe joked with Alexander about even adding projector flicker and destabilization,\u201d he smiles. \u201cHopefully, by adding the grain and using these C-series anamorphics, we can still convey that nice black-and-white film look without going overboard.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shooting ALEXA required a bit of leading-edge technology. Convergent Design Gemini 4:4:4 Recorders were chosen for the ARRIRAW capture because they were compact and light. The combination of the ALEXA 4:3 sensor and anamorphic was still relatively new in the autumn of 2012.<\/p>\n

\u201cConvergent Design was just getting ready to release new firmware for the Gemini that would allow for 4:3 capture, but they couldn\u2019t give us a firm date,\u201d Porter continues. \u201cAnd Arri hadn\u2019t yet released their SUP 7 software, which allows the SxS module to become activated and record 2K ProRes as a backup. Our first break came from Stephan Ukas-Bradley of Arri, who allowed us to use the beta version of the SUP 7. Then, Convergent Design released its 4:3 capture software. The test was a bit of a disaster, but our DIT, Lonny Danler, spent the next two weeks working with Arri and Convergent Design to eliminate the bugs, and we didn\u2019t experience a single problem during production.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Gemini recorded images at 2880\u00d72160 resolution with simultaneous recording to in-camera SxS cards at 2048\u00d71536 ProRes 4444 Log C. \u201cI\u2019d always have a separate BNC feed to monitor the Gemini out Log C for exposure,\u201d Danler explains. \u201cAt my cart I would flip the live image back and forth from color to black and white [using a live LUT from Technicolor] on a 25-inch Sony OLED monitor so that gaffer Rafael Sanchez, Garcia and I could keep an eye on the frame while Phedon stayed close to the set. After the footage was ingested, I would load it into DaVinci Resolve and begin refining the live look into a dailies look that would then travel with the shuttle driver to post. We kept within the ASC-CDL specs for dailies, but in a few cases where Phedon wanted some power windows and secondary adjustments, to bring down a sky for example, I would generate some stills out of Resolve \u2013 the same software that Technicolor uses in the DI.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The road-movie framework of the narrative <\/b>required extensive car scenes, and Payne didn\u2019t want any process shots. An ALEXA M allowed for easy placement inside vehicles and through-the-window rigs. Often the M head was on a slider in the back seat of the hero vehicle, a Subaru Outback wagon, or mounted on a leveling head on the passenger side.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe then cabled it to the body, which we mounted inside a ventilated beverage cooler to protect it from the elements,\u201d says Porter. \u201cWill [Forte] even drove us through the drive-through at McDonald\u2019s one day \u2013 try doing that with an insert car and a 25-foot process trailer!\u201d<\/p>\n

Payne gave Papamichael ample freedom to frame the image, \u201cand with that big, open landscape \u2013 the roads, cornfields and skies \u2013 everything fell into place,\u201d he says. \u201cBruce Dern\u2019s face is quite fascinating with the texture, and the hair and his eyes. It was nice framing close-ups of him with a widescreen frame in the middle of nowhere. And you\u2019re not struggling with a cacophony of colors and skin tones. It\u2019s just a lot of fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although the filmmakers saw black and white on the set, the ALEXA\/Gemini rig captured full color to provide maximum flexibility throughout the pipeline; in post, a color could be isolated and manipulated to affect the black-and-white image. Papamichael used this capability on the set, but sparingly, in part because a color deliverable was required, and he didn\u2019t feel comfortable giving it strong colors. Asked about L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Kov\u00e1cs\u2019 oft-told story about the advice he got from Orson Welles about shooting Paper Moon<\/i> in black and white \u2013 \u201cUse a red filter, my boy\u201d \u2013 Papamichael says that the color deliverable precluded that as well.<\/p>\n

Conversations with production designer J. Dennis Washington often concerned how dark a wall should be. Papamichael sometimes said that if the wall was a certain color, he could isolate it in the DI and make it darker or lighter according to Payne\u2019s wishes.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes, as we were doing the DI, it got a little scary because I didn\u2019t know what Skip was doing,\u201d Papamichael admits. \u201cHe was playing with the colors and contrast, and manipulating the sky or skin tones. Sometimes things looked a little strange, and I couldn\u2019t really pinpoint why. Often we would just scrap it and start over, because there are so many options when you\u2019re playing with the color tonality to affect the black-and-white image.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the set, I did do certain things with color in consideration of that,\u201d he continues. \u201cWe painted buildings red so I could make them darker or lighter by affecting the red channel. But it\u2019s not as easy as you might think, because if there\u2019s some sheen on the wall, that doesn\u2019t get affected as much. And if you push it too much, it doesn\u2019t look real.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gaffer Rafael Sanchez did warm up some of the colored lighting. \u201cAnd if there was a kick off an asphalt road surface at night, if it had some color, it was easy to dial out,\u201d Papamichael continues. \u201cSometimes in dusk situations, because it\u2019s so blue, we could dial it down without affecting the rest of the scene. At night, we\u2019d shoot HMI straight up behind buildings or on rooftops, which gave an atmospheric glow that was very controllable in post. We could make it really strong or almost eliminate it, as if I\u2019d never put it there.\u201d<\/p>\n

A handful of Nebraska\u2019s<\/i> prints are being filmed-out to black and white print stock, and Papamichael says that these are the best versions of the movie. \u201cWhen we premiered at Cannes, the DCP looked great. But once you go back to black-and-white print stock, you\u2019re picking up additional film stock grain, and you get the film projection element coming back to you,\u201d the DP reflects. \u201cAt that point, you\u2019d be hard-pressed to say it was shot on a digital camera.\u201d<\/p>\n

Looking back at this experience, the cinematographer recalls how Payne\u2019s emphasis [no matter the project or location] is on the people. \u201cIt\u2019s always about the subtleties and facial expressions. Alexander doesn\u2019t want to miss any of the nuances of the performance, so the camerawork is subtle, and nothing is wasted. The actor\u2019s work is never covered up by a particular style \u2013 movement, rack focusing or lighting \u2013 that would distract or take away from the story. This film, like all his movies, is very precisely crafted, and I think that\u2019s why they\u2019re so successful. You feel the love and the labor, and the thought behind everything.\u201d<\/p>\n
