In this video, we highlight the Canon Log upgrade that's available for EOS 5D Mark IV users. C-Log isn't a RAW recording, but it uses the image sensor's characteristics to produce a wide dynamic range with minimal losses in shadows and highlights. The video appears flat, low in contrast and saturation with muted sharpness to provide flexibility during the color grading process.
The firmware update will be available in July and will cost $99. Visit usa.canon.com/canonlog5d4 to grab yours. If you're shopping for a new EOS 5D Mark IV, it will come pre-installed with a retail price around $3,599 (body only).
The Black List is an annual list of the best, unproduced screenplays in Hollywood. Every time I get paid to write a screenplay or TV pilot, I think about The Black List and how important it has been to me.
It was back in 2013 when my screenplay, Shovel Buddies, got on the list. It helped start my career.
Reading these entries, you; 'll see what Hollywood execs loved reading this year, and maybe it'll give you the push you need to finish your masterpiece.
Let's dive in.
