In one pivotal scene, Clementine visits the site of a murder by this long outdoor staircase. But it really does such a great job capturing detail even when you have to push the exposure. McConaghy reports that the shooting experience was satisfactory despite these constraints: “The URSA Mini Pro isn’t always given credit for its low light ability. Also, with a limited budget, they took full advantage of natural light. Versatility and adaptability were two constants of the shoot, as the Night Caller team had only 10 days to shoot. I shot with a different camera on my last feature, and I regretted not using the URSA almost every minute of the shoot!” The functionality is great and the image is so organic and film like. I’ve filmed a few features on it now and I appreciate it more every time.
After this period of analysis, the duo settled on the URSA Mini Pro G2: “The G2 is amazing. ‘Night Caller’, shot with the Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 The Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 was the camera of choice for director Chad Ferrin and cinematographer Kyle McConaghy to shoot Night Caller.įilmmaker Chad Ferrin, known for films such as Exorcism at 60,000 Feet and The Deep Ones, decided to shape Night Caller from a different perspective than his recent films: “The Deep Ones’ was such a success artistically and financially,” said Ferrin, “that it sort of injected all of us with a dose of ‘Roger Corman inspiration’ to just get few bucks together and crank out a modest budget, quick turn around film.”Īlong with cinematographer Kyle McConaghy, Ferrin analyzed films from the ’70s and ’80s that evoked a gritty, somber environment, which was the style they wanted to achieve in Night Caller.
