Tape Measures

There’s a reason why the 1st assistant camera (AC) is also called the “Focus Puller.” It’s because that single responsibility of keeping a subject in focus is so incredibly valued, that there is an entire job, an entire career, devoted to it. But you can’t pull focus without measuring for it first. You can become exceptional at guessing distances, but nobody will ever be as precise or accurate as the tape measures you use. So when you whip out your tape measures on set your crew will have the confidence to know that what you’re doing is going to be accurate for the shot. Cause If you don’t know what you’re doing, you risk wasted time and soft footage and maybe your next gig! Tape measureson location from Markertek!
