I've worked in the movie business for many, many years, where you have lots of days and lots of money. It's really mainly about time.

Studios are so used to digital now and there is a mythology that it's cheaper. But it's really not cheaper. For instance, digital is great for night exteriors, everybody knows it's a video tap, so it's very responsive to light.

Conversely, you go out and shoot day exterior, and it slams you, just like you know from your own video recording.
What I like is having a conversation that gets you on the right page.
