Subreddit Rules
- Self-Posts Must have a Submission Statement.: * Self-posts must be accompanied by no less than a 300 character description of the project. This includes describing the camera/film used, techniques used, lights used, difficulties and limitations experienced during production, ...etc.
- If you are a student or amateur, you must seek feedback on your work. Talk about what you did right, what you did wrong, and where you need help.
- You may NOT post work simply to get views or subs!**
- This does not apply to questions about other work
- No Soliciting - (Job Listings, Crowdfunding, Sales, Ads, etc): Solicitation of any kind will not be permitted. This means job listings, crowdfunding, equipment sales/rentals, advertisements or other material deemed solicitous.
- Remain Polite and Professional: Art is a highly subjective field. As you'd expect then, opinions can sometimes be divisive. However, one would do well to refrain from down-voting, name-calling, insults, flame wars, or other impoliteness or rudeness when interacting with others on the sub.
- Posts Must Be Flair'd: In an effort to organize the wide array of posts, the sub will broken up into 6 categories:
- 1. Lighting
- 3. Composition
- 5. Self-Post
- - When posting, flair your post with the desired category. If not sure which it should be placed in, choose "[Other]".
- If you are posting your own work in any capacity, select Self-Post
- No V-Logs, Travel Videos, or Crowdfunding Submissions: * As voted by the community in general, none of the above types of submissions are allowed on this sub. That type of content is not what this sub wants to focus on, and if you're interested in cinematography as a profession then you'd do well to avoid v-logs and travel videos as well!
- Color grade comparisons must compare against Rec 709 - NO LOG: Log footage (CLog, sLog, LogC, RedLog, etc) is not meant to be viewed directly. Any posts showing color grade comparisons must compare the grade against a standard Rec 709 LUT.
- Please do not be a 'Gatekeeper'!: If you're a professional and you see work of a lower quality than your own, please refrain from labeling it as 'videography' or 'amateur' just to put down the OP. Nobody starts out as a pro cinematographer, so do your best at all times to keep an open mind and to help amateurs and students to learn and expand their skills!
- Students and Amateurs Must Identify Themselves!: If you are a student or an amateur, even an amateur who gets paid sometimes, then please identify yourself when making a self-post! Self-post content will be screened for quality, and unprofessional content submitted by people who don't clarify that they're students or amateurs **will be removed.**
- Tutorial Videos must be high quality and correct.: Due to an influx of tutorial videos being submitted by amateurs or people who don't understand their own topic, tutorial videos that relay falsehoods or bad info will be removed, and the users submitting them may be banned if they continue to submit bad content.
- Posts must be about Cinematography! Off-Topic posts will be removed.: If you have questions related to film but not about cinematography directly, try heading over to /r/filmmakers instead!
- Generative AI is not allowed. AI Tools and AI assisted communication are allowed, but with limits.: You may not post work containing Generative AI elements (Midjourney, Neo, Dall-E, etc.). You may use and demonstrate the use of AI assisted tools (ie magic masking, upscalers, etc.) so long as they are used in service of human-generated artwork. AI Communication, like post bodies or comments composed using ChatGPT are allowed only in reasonable cases, such as the need for someone to translate their thoughts into English. Abuse of AI assisted communication will result in the removal.
