How do directors and cinematographers shooting on film know what anything is going to look like?
Do they do test shots of everything in advance of actual filming to figure out the proper lighting and film development?
Are any of these tests archived anywhere?
Searching online is useless these days, I need good references and sources for this, not AI poisoned slop
