Which brings up a good point that you always need to get those requests on the record meaning written in an email or, if its a phone call, record the conversation so that you are covered in case you end up with one of these people who have no idea what they are talking about. If I get a request to have the background "blown/washed out" then that's what I'm going to do. They need to know the difference before making a request because I can't read minds.Shot a series of sit-downs yesterday and the day before one of the producers told me he wanted the lockers/background "blown out"/"washed out". I hate producers, directors, etc. that DO NOT know what they are asking for. He really wanted the background out-of-focus/very shallow-depth-of-field look. Ranks pretty close to directors that ask you to "pan down" or "pan up". *Sigh*...
