Employing two Red Dragons, Tattersall used Angenieux Optimo 17-80mm T2.2 and 24-290mm T2.8 zoom lenses for the A-camera, while the B-camera was outfitted with the Optimo 24-290. The first episode, directed by Tate Taylor, was shot over nine days, with the remaining 12 episodes-each with a different director-shot over five and a half days each, with brief hiatuses in between. Opting to go with the Red Dragon because of its gentler touch with skin tones, Tattersall and his crew photographed the series in 5K for a 4K 16:9 extraction, with material recorded to 512 GB RedMag SSD cards prior to being transferred to hard drives for delivery to editorial. With the Netflix mandate to shoot in 4K, director of photography Gale Tattersall had limited camera options: the Sony F55 and F65 CineAlta 4K digital cinema cameras, the Red Epic and the Red Dragon. Executive produced by Marta Kauffman, one of the creators of network stalwart “Friends,” the series stars Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin alongside erstwhile soon-to-be-ex-husbands Martin Sheen and Sam Waterston. “Grace and Frankie” is the newest addition to streaming giant Netflix’s lineup of original series. Now try four legendary talents, in a single-camera television comedy series, but with a “cinematic” feel.
LOS ANGELES-What’s it like to work with a screen legend? While potentially a life-changing experience, some cinematographers might also describe it as a touch nerve-wracking.
