55mm PRIME LENS WINS THE DAY

On location in Memphis, TN shooting for FAST PANDA food chain, Cinematographer ARLO DENT expressed his passion for the ZEISS 55 millimeter lens. “I have love for all my children but the 55 holds a special place in my heart.” Dent is protective of how much he’s willing to say, not wanting to give away trade secrets.

There was a moment on set when the director, JELLY, asked for a tighter shot and possibly using a longer lens. PEOPLE. producer, KIMMY KLEIN said, “Arlo looked personally hurt at the suggestion of swinging a different lens. But after many moments of quiet time, they moved the camera closer to the subject, keeping the 55 in play.” Well trained filmmakers always have a solution. Early in Dent’s career he was obsessed with a Canon 22mm lens, shooting an entire independent feature with it.

The shoot was a great success. The team is proud to promote FAST PANDA’S new Orange Chicken Fries.
