Eigen Energie Podcast Folge 2: Es gibt so viel Potenzial zum Strom sparen Die 2. Folge des Eigen Energie Wende Podcast stellt euch viele Möglichkeiten vor, wie ihr effektiver Strom einsparen könnt. Denn sofern ihr euren Stromverbrauch nicht schon aktiv unter die Lupe genommen und alle Möglichkeiten für Einsparungen aktiviert habt, bin ich mir ziemlich sicher, dass ihr ohne größere Investitionen oder Komforteinschränkungen mindestens 10% eures Jahres-Stromverbrauchs, im Vergleich zu den letzten beiden Jahren, einsparen könnt. Dafür gebe ich euch in dieser Folge viele Tipps aus den Erfahrungen, die ich mit meiner Familie in den letzten Monaten bezüglich des Stromsparens gemacht habe. Wir konnten unseren Stromverbrauch im Verlauf der letzten Monate um ca. 60% reduzieren, da wir unbewusst viel Strom verschwendet haben. Wir konnten diese Einsparung nur erreichen, indem wir unseren Stromverbrauch „sichtbar gemacht“ haben. Wie das geht, erkläre ich in der ersten Folge des Eigen Energie Wende Podcast, die ihr hier unbedingt noch einmal anhören solltet: https://www.eigenenergiewende.de/podcastfolgen/folge-1-die-grundlagen-um-effektiv-strom-zu-sparen   --- Kurze Erläuterung zur Strommessung und der Stromkostenberechnung --- Die Leistungsaufnahme von Elektrogeräten wird in Watt gemessen. Watt ist das Ergebnis aus der Formel Volt (also Stromspannung) Mal Ampere (also Stromstärke). Unser Stromverbrauch wird in der Einheit kWh gemessen und in dieser Einheit auch vom Stromanbieter abgerechnet. Aktuell sind das bei vielen von euch wahrscheinlich 35 – oder hoffentlich höchstens 70 Cent pro kWh. Aber wie werden jetzt Watt zu kWh? Ihr habt sicherlich schon mal die Leistungsangabe Watt auf einigen Haushaltsgeräten gesehen. Unsere Mikrowelle hat z.B. eine maximale Einstellung zum Erhitzen von 800 Watt und um dieses Beispiel zu vereinfachen, rechnen wir mal damit, dass dafür auch genau 800 Watt Strom aus der Steckdose fließen, in Wirklichkeit ist das etwas mehr, aber wir wollen es möglichst einfach halten. Das würde bedeuten, dass die Mikrowelle bei 1 Stunde Laufzeit und 800 Watt Leistung dann 800 Wattstunden an Strom verbraucht hat. Da eine kWh 1000 Wattstunden entspricht müssen wir den Wert von 800 Wattstunden durch 1000 Teilen und bekommen dann den Wert in kWh. Also 800 Wattstunden durch 1000 ergibt 0,8 kWh. Um das jetzt in Kosten umzurechnen, multiplizieren wir 0,8 x 0,35 Euro = 0,28 Cent an Stromkosten. Bei einem Strompreis von 70 Cent wären das dann 0,8 x 0,7 = 0,56 Euro. Leider findet man auf den meisten Haushaltsgeräten keinen Knopf mit der einstellbaren Leistungsangabe wie bei der Mikrowelle. Daher solltet ihr wie in Folge 1 beschrieben, eure Stromverbräuche sichtbar machen.     --- Einsparpotenzial bei TV, Audio im Wohnzimmer ---   Macht erst einmal einen einfachen Schnelltest bei euren Elektrogeräten mit einem Rundgang durch die Räume und ein schlichtes Handauflegen auf Elektrogeräte und Netzteile, die im Stand-by-Modus bzw. ausgeschaltet sind. Wenn ihr spürt, dass sich ein Gerät besonders warm anfühlt, obwohl es nicht eingeschaltet ist, könnt ihr davon ausgehen, dass hier unnötig Strom verbraucht wird. An diesen Geräten solltet ihr also zuerst eure Strommesssteckdose anschließen, um zu sehen, wie viel Strom hier verbraucht bzw. verschwendet wird. Bei uns war der größte Standby-Stromverschwender im Wohnzimmer unser alter Classic DVD-Receiver der im Standby 20W verbraucht und in der Woche nur noch 2-3 Std. zum Einsatz kommt. In Zahlen bedeuten 20W x 24 Std. = 480 Wh das sind also fast ½ kWh pro Tag. Im Jahr sind das 175 kWh die €60 € bei einem Strompreis von 35 Cent oder €120 bei einem Strompreis von 70 Cent entsprechen. Den Verstärker haben wir jetzt an eine schaltbare Steckdose angeschlossen, die wir nur noch einschalten, wenn wir den Verstärker auch nutzen. Das ergibt eine Menge Einsparung ohne Komfortverlust. Gerade ältere Geräte haben z.T. einen sehr hohe Standby verbrauch, da die gesetzlichen Regulierungen zum Stromverbrauch früher nicht sehr strikt waren und daher nicht viel Aufmerksamkeit dem Energiesparen geschenkt wurde. Also solltet ihr besonders eure älteren Elektrogeräte, die ständig an der Steckdose angeschlossen sind, besonders unter die Lupe nehmen. Überprüft bei dieser Gelegenheit auch, ob ihr eine Spielekonsole im Wohnzimmer habt, die ständig am Strom hängt. Auch hier sind ältere Konsolen richtige Stromfresser, also lohnt es sich auch diese nur mit Strom zu versorgen, wenn sie auch aktiv genutzt werden. Ein weiterer großer Stromverbraucher, der in vielen Haushalten täglich genutzt wird, ist der Fernseher. Hier solltet ihr unbedingt als nächstes die Strommesssteckdose anschließen, um den genauen Stromverbrauch zu erfahren. Die größte Ersparnis haben wir an unserem LCD-Fernseher durch die Reduzierung der Hintergrundbeleuchtung erzielt und gleichzeitig ein natürlicheres Bild mit besseren Schwarzwerten in dunklen Bildbereichen erhalten. Es lohnt sich auch noch elektronischen „Bildoptimierungs-Einstellungen“ durchzuprobieren. Einige davon kosten zusätzlich Rechenleistung, die auch einen höheren Stromverbrauch bedeuten kann. Neuere LCD-Fernseher benötigen bei 4K Auflösung und HDR i.d.R. auch mehr Strom als im normalen HD und ohne HDR Modus. Messt mal nach, welches Feature bei euch wie viel mehr Strom verbraucht, um dann ggf. diese Features bewusst z.B. nur für den Kinoabend zu aktivieren. Unser Fernseher verbraucht jetzt im Betrieb nur noch 60W und somit 50% weniger Strom als vor der Optimierung. Damit liegen wir jetzt bei einem TV-Jahresverbrauch von nur noch 90 kWh im Gegensatz zu vorher 180 kWh. Das ergibt bei den beiden Referenzstrompreisen von 35 bzw. 70 Cent eine Einsparung von €30 bzw. €60 pro Jahr. Die Ersparnis kann noch höher ausfallen, wenn ihr, wenn möglich (z.B., wenn man alleine schaut) vom Fernseher auf ein Tablett wechselt. Mein iPad Pro hat eine viel bessere Auflösung und auch ein HDR Display, aber es verbraucht im Betrieb noch einmal 90% weniger Strom als unser Fernseher. Und da ich das iPad näher vor mich stelle, ist die Bildgröße perspektivisch sogar etwas größer für mich, als wenn ich auf den 4m entfernten Fernseher schaue. Unser Fernseher, Apple-TV und Amazon FireTV-Stick verbrauchen im Standby ca. 4 Watt und werden, in den über 20 Stunden, die wir sie täglich nicht nutzen, jetzt per Steckerleiste vom Strom getrennt. So reduzieren wir unseren Stromverbrauch um 4W mal 20 Std. also 80 Wh pro Tag oder ca. 30 kWh pro Jahr. Auf der Stromrechnung ergibt das eine weitere Einsparung von €10 bzw. €20 jährlich. Das Gleiche gilt auch für externe Satelliten-TV Verteiler, Kable-TV Box, DVB-T Empfänger oder Antennenverstärker. Diese Geräte können, wenn sie auch schon ein paar Jahre alt sind, ständig 5-20W verbrauchen und somit die Stromrechnung um €15-€70 pro Jahr erhöhen. Auch diese haben wir jetzt so geschaltet, dass es nur an sind, wenn wir auch wirklich TV schauen. Der nächste Stromverbraucher ist der Internetrouter. Wir haben eine FritzBox für unser DSL und die verbraucht, je nach Typ und Einsatz zwischen 5–20W. Ein großer Teil des Energieverbrauchs benötigt dabei das WLAN. Sofern das bei euch nicht 24Stunden pro Tag laufen muss, schaut mal in die Bedienoberfläche eures Routers, ob es eine Zeitschaltfunktion für das WLAN gibt. Die aktuelleren FritzBoxen haben diese Funktion und damit könntet ihr das WLAN z.B. zwischen 0-6 Uhr ausschalten und so ¼ des Stromverbrauchs für das WLAN reduzieren und damit ca. €10-€30 pro Jahr einsparen. Zusätzlich gibt es in einigen Routern weitere Energiesparoptionen, die ihr ausprobieren solltet. Schließt dazu wieder die Strommessgsteckdose vor den Router und testet die verschiedenen Einstellungen, um zu sehen, welche Einstellungen sich auf den Verbrauch auswirken. Wenn man den gesamten Router über eine externe Zeitschaltuhr ausschalten, würden evtl. auch das Telefon sowie Geräte, die eine ständige Internetverbindung benötigen (Alarmanlage, SmartHome Steuerung etc.) getrennt werden.     --- Homeoffice / EDV --- So ähnlich wie im Wohnzimmer solltet ihr auch in eurem Homeoffice vorgehen. Gibt es Geräte, die Ständig am Strom hängen, obwohl sie das nicht müssen? Wir haben jetzt konsequent alle Geräte an schaltbaren Steckerleisten angeschlossen und trennen diese vom Strom, wenn der Arbeitstag beendet ist. Was für euren Fernseher gilt, solltet ihr auch auf eure Computermonitore übertragen. Stellt die Hintergrundbeleuchtung jeweils nur so hell ein, wie es sein muss. Geräte wie Scanner, Drucker, externe Festplatten, Audio-Interfaces usw. sollten nur verbunden sein, wenn sie benötigt werden. Es lohnt auch die Energiespareinstellungen in den Systemeinstellungen eurer Rechner zu checken, denn da kann man bestimmt auch noch ein paar Dinge, wie z.B. Ausschaltzeiten des Monitors bei Inaktivität oder andere Dinge, optimieren. Wenn ein Gerät im Standby nur 2W verbraucht, summiert sich das in 24 Stunden auf ca. 50 Wh. Um diesen vermeintlich unbedeutenden Verbrauch mal in Perspektive zu setzen: Mit 50 Wh pro Tag kann man, wenn man bei aktuellen Smartphones von einer Batteriekapazität zwischen 10 bis 15 Wh ausgeht, 3–5 Smartphones Täglich vollständig aufladen! Nach dieser ganzen Recherche habe ich in den letzten Monaten auch mein Arbeitsverhalten mehr an den Bedarf und an den Stromverbrauch angepasst. Ich habe mir nach der Energiespar-Recherche der letzten Monate jetzt angewöhnt, angepasst an meine Aufgaben generell den dafür ausreichend dimensionierten Rechner zu nehmen. Für E-Mails schreiben, Websurfen oder kleinere Foto- und Videoarbeiten reicht mein iPad Pro völlig aus und das verbraucht pro Tag nur so viel Energie wie mein großer 5K iMac bei geringer Leistung in einer Stunde. Also kann ich hier gut 90% Strom pro Tag einsparen, wenn ich nicht auf den großen Monitor oder die maximale Rechenleistung des iMacs angewiesen bin. Für viele größere Aufgaben kann ich aber auch mein Notebook einsetzen, da es sogar einen schnelleren Prozessor als der iMac hat, aber nur ca. 1/3 des Stroms verbraucht. Dafür ist der Monitor aber natürlich auch deutlich kleiner. Vielleicht habt ihr auch die Möglichkeit eure Arbeitsgeräte mehr an den Bedarf anzupassen, um auch hier noch einmal Strom einzusparen.     --- Haushaltsgeräte ---   Viele Haushaltsgeräte haben ein großes Strom-Einsparpotential, da sie fast täglich genutzt werden und viel Strom verbrauchen. Die größten Einsparungen konnten wir bei der Waschmaschine und dem Wäschetrockner erzielen. Bei uns mit 4 Personen, davon 2 aktive Kinder, die viel Sport treiben und viel Wäsche produzieren, läuft die Waschmaschine ca. 200-mal im Jahr. Neuere Waschmaschinen haben schon einige Energiesparprogramme, aber auch bei älteren Waschmaschinen könnt ihr durch gezielte Waschprogramm- und Temperaturwahl eine Menge an Strom sparen. Dazu kann es sinnvoll sein eine von den in der letzten Folge vorgestellten WLAN-Steckdosen mit Strommessfunktion anzuschaffen und an der Waschmaschine anzuschließen. Wir haben so eine Messsteckdose dauerhaft angeschlossen und konnten damit über einen längeren Zeitraum genau herausfinden, wie viel Strom welches Waschprogramm bei welcher Temperatur verbraucht und dann vergleichen wie sauber das Waschergebnis war. Ich werdet dann vielleicht ähnlich überrascht sein, mit wie wenig Strom man gute Waschergebnisse erzielen kann. Und vorab ein kleiner Spoiler: die kurzen Schnellwaschprogramme sind oft die größten Stromfresser. Aber auch die gewählte Waschtemperatur hat einen sehr großen Einfluss auf den Stromverbrauch. Denn das Waschwasser kommt direkt aus der ungeheizten Wasserleitung des Hausanschlusses. Die Temperatur des Wassers beträgt durchschnittlich 10–15°C und wird durch einen elektrischen Heizstab in der Waschmaschine auf die gewünschte Waschtemperatur erhitzt. Also bei einer 30° Wäsche muss das Wasser um ca. 15° erhitzt werden. Bei einer 40° Wäsche sind das schon 25° und bei einer 60° Wäsche eine Erhöhung um 45° C. Bei einer 90° Wäsche sind das dann ganze 75° C und das Erhitzen von Wasser kostet eine Menge Strom. Wir haben die 90° Wäsche jetzt abgeschafft und waschen unsere ehemalige Kochwäsche maximal noch mit 60° und guten Ergebnissen. Und die ehemalige 60° Wäsche haben wir auf 40° reduziert wobei für viele Wäschen auch ein 30° Waschgang mit entsprechendem Waschprogramm völlig ausreicht. Das alles funktioniert besonders gut, wenn man, so wie man das früher schon gemacht hat, starke Flecken oder Verschmutzungen vor der Wäsche direkt mit etwas Waschmittel behandelt. Bei den Waschtemperaturen sind die Einsparmöglichkeiten einheitlich, aber bei den Waschprogrammen eurer Waschmaschine müsst ihr individuell nachmessen, welches Programm wie viel Strom bei eurer Maschine verbraucht. Grundsätzlich sollte das ECO oder Öko Programm sparsamer als Normalprogramme sein. Bei einigen Waschmaschinen kann man auch verschiedene Normalprogramme mit einer Eco oder Öko-Taste in den Energiesparmodus versetzen.   Als Beispiel sind hier ein paar Verbrauchsdaten unserer Waschmaschine: - Eine 60° Eco-Wäsche (das lange Programm) verbraucht bei uns ca. 1 kWh - Die 40° Eco-Wäsche (auch das lange Programm) verbraucht ca. 0,6 kWh also ca. 40% weniger als die 60° Wäsche) - Die 30° Eco-Wäsche verbraucht ca. 0,3 kWh also 70% weniger als die 60° und 50% weniger als die 40° Wäsche Bei 200 Wäschen Pro Jahr kann man hier ca. €50–€100 einsparen.   Viele modernere Waschmaschinen erkennen, wie viel KG Wäsche sich in der Trommel befinden und dementsprechend kann der Verbrauch von einer Halbvollen zu einer sehr vollen Wäsche auch bei den gleichen Einstellungen variieren. Nach dem Waschgang kann es sich lohnen, vor dem Trocknen noch einen Schleuderzyklus in der Waschmaschine laufen zu lassen. Sofern es die Kleidungsstücke zulassen, machen wir einen extra Schleuderzyklus mit 1400 U/min und das dauert ca. 12 Minuten extra. Mit weniger Restfeuchtigkeit trocknet die Wäsche dann auch schneller auf der Wäscheleine oder im Wäschetrockner. In der Vergangenheit haben wir fast immer unseren Wäschetrockner benutzt da es so schön praktisch war. Aber mich hat fast der Schlag getroffen, als ich gesehen habe, wie viel Strom ein Trocknungsgang bei uns verbraucht. Wir haben einen 10 Jahre alten Kondenstrockner, also einen Trockner ohne Abluftschlauch nach draußen, der von einem namenhaften deutschen Hersteller stammt und für uns unglaubliche 3,5 kWh für eine volle Ladung Wäsche verbraucht. Der Wäschetrockner verbraucht also durchschnittlich 6-Mal mehr Strom als unsere Waschmaschine für die gleiche Wäsche! Manchmal haben wir Tage, an denen wir sogar nur 3,5 kWh in unserem gesamten Haus verbrauchen. 3,5 kWh bei 200 Wäschen im Jahr entspricht 700 kWh pro Jahr oder ca. €250-€750 pro Jahr. Bei unserem aktuellen Stromverbrauch würde das unseren Verbrauch um mindestens 1/3 erhöhen. Nur für den Wäschetrockner! Wir haben dann sofort auf das Trocknen mit Wäscheständern umgestellt und damit bisher eine Menge Strom & Geld eingespart. Das war zwischen April und September auch nicht schwer, da wir die Wäsche draußen trocknen konnten. Sofern wir das in der dunklen und kalten Jahreszeit nicht durchhalten können, da wir keinen angemessenen Trocknungsraum im Haus haben, erwägen wir den Kauf eines modernen Wärmepumpen-Wäschetrockners. Die aktuellen Modelle mit hoher Energieeffiziens sind um ca. 2/3 sparsamer als die alten Kondenstrockner und diese Investition kann sich bei häufigem Einsatz und hohen Strompreisen in weniger als 2 Jahren amortisieren.   --- Amazon-Link Wäschetrockner --- Siemens iQ500: https://amzn.to/3dhiWKw Sofern ihr eine Geschirrspülmaschine habt, lohnt sich auch ein Durchprobieren und eine Verbrauchsmessung der unterschiedlichen Spülprogramme. Auch hier gilt wieder, je heißer der Waschgang, desto mehr Strom wird verbraucht. Unsere 10 Jahre alte Maschine hat ein Ökosparprogramm mit 50°C das genau 1 kWh pro Spülgang verbraucht und das ist für uns akzeptabel. Wir packen die Maschine jetzt auch immer ganz voll und verschenken kein Platz durch sperrige Töpfe. Die brauchen wir täglich und waschen sie direkt nach dem Kochen ab. Das geht schnell, weil in der kurzen Zeit nichts eintrocknen kann. Im Durchschnitt läuft unsere Spülmaschine jetzt einmal alle 4 Tage.   Kommen wir zum nächsten Stromverbraucher den wahrscheinlich jeder besitz und das ist der Kühl- und Gefrierschrank. Da dieser das ganze Jahr über in Betrieb ist, können sich hier auch kleinere Einsparungen auf der Stromrechnung bemerkbar machen. Der Kühl-/Gefrierschrank verbraucht am meisten Strom, wenn der Kühlkompressor läuft um die Kühltemperatur auf der eingestellten Mindesttemperatur zu halten. Ihr könnt das vielleicht bei eurem Kühlschrank hören, wenn der ein bisschen brummt dann wird gerade gekühlt. Bei unserem 10 Jahre alten Kühlschrank sind das ungefähr 20 Minuten pro Stunde. Aber auch hier gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten diesen Strom-Dauerverbraucher etwas in die Schranken zu weisen. Die erste Einsparung, die wir gemacht haben, war die Kühltemperatur zu optimieren. Unser Kühlschrank war auf 5°C Kühltemperatur eingestellt. Das haben wir jetzt auf 7°C erhöht, da jedes Grad den Stromverbrauch um ca. 6% verändert. Das Gefrierfach haben wir von -18 auf -16°C Kühltemperatur erhöht, so dass wir bei Kühlschrank jetzt über 20% Stromverbrauch pro Jahr einsparen. Achtet auch darauf, die Kühlschranktür nur zu öffnen, wenn es nötig ist und die Tür nicht ganz so schnell aufzureißen, damit nicht so viel Kälte in den Raum verloren geht. Und ihr solltet auch alle Gerichte, die im Kühlschrank aufbewahrt werden, vorher auf Raumtemperatur abkühlen, damit hier nicht unnötig gegen eine Wärmequelle gekühlt werden muss. Außerdem solltet ihr dafür sorgen, dass der Kühlschrank nicht direkter Sonneneinstrahlung ausgesetzt ist oder direkt an der Heizung steht, da dies zusätzliche Kühlleistung beansprucht.     --- Herd und Backofen ---   Für den Herd gilt grundsätzlich: Je kürzer und weniger Töpfe ihr auf dem Herd aufheizt, desto weniger Strom verbraucht ihr. Sprich, ein Eintopf kann im Angesicht der aktuellen Stromsituation wieder an Attraktivität gewinnen, wenn ihr nur eine Herdplatte benutzt, anstatt gleichzeitig 3 Herdplatten zu benutzen, um unterschiedlichen Zutaten zu erhitzen. Die Herdplatte sollte von der Größe her nicht größer als der Topf sein und ihr solltet, wenn immer möglich, mit Deckel kochen, da so die Energieeffizienz im Kochprozess deutlich steigt. Ihr könnt die Herdplatte auch ein paar Minuten vor beendeter Kochzeit ausschalten und das Gericht zu ende garen, da noch viel Restwärme in der Platte und dem Topf stecken, die ohne weiter Stromverbrauch ausgenutzt werden können.   5 Tipps zur energiesparenderen Nutzung des Backofens:   Oft muss der Ofen nicht vorgeheizt werden und das Gericht kann so schon im Aufwärmprozess die Energie nutzen. In der Regel ist die Umlufteinstellung am effektivsten, da sich so die Wärme am besten im Ofen verteilt und ihr so auch mehrere Backbleche gleichzeitig nutzen könnt. Wenn ihr gefrorene Lebensmittel backt, dann kann es Sinn machen diese schon einen Tag vorher im Kühlschrank auf 7° C aufzutauen. Der Kühlschrank profitiert, da er in der Auftauzeit die Kälte nutzt und weniger selbst kühlen muss. Und der Ofen muss kein Gericht von -16° aufbacken, sondert startet bei +7°C und hat damit einen 23° Vorsprung der weniger Energie kostet. Öffnet die Ofentür nur wenn es absolut notwendig ist (z.B. zum Wenden oder um die Kerntemperatur zu prüfen). Denn durch jedes Öffnen geht viel Wärme aus dem Inneren des Ofens verloren. Auch der Backofen hält die Restwärme bei geschlossener Tür ür einen längeren Zeitraum, und auch hier könnt ihr ggf. den Ofen schon ein paar Minuten vor dem Ende der Backzeit abstellen und so etwas Strom sparen. Denn im Heizmodus verbraucht ein Backofen oft über 2000W.     --- Licht und Beleuchtung ---   Statistisch verbrauchen wir ca. 10% unseres Stroms für Beleuchtung in Privathaushalten. Es sollte sich mittlerweile herumgesprochen haben, dass alte Glühbirnen unglaubliche Energievernichter sind und dass man möglichst alle Lampen auf LED-Lampen umstellen sollte. Früher hatte bei uns eine 100W Glühbirne einen mittelgroßen Raum ausgeleuchtet. Heute können wir mit 100W Leistung mehr als ein Dutzend LED-Lampen betreiben und unser ganzes Haus ausreichend ausleuchten. Geht mal durchs Haus oder die Wohnung und kontrolliert, ob wirklich überall schon LED-Lampen eingesetzt sind, wo sie eingesetzt werden können. Und achtet auch besonders auf eingebaute Halogenstrahler, die können ggf. auch durch viel sparsamere LED-Lampen ersetzt werden. Die LED-Technologie hat sich auch weiterentwickelt und so haben wir kürzlich alte LED-Birnen gegen neuere mit noch weniger Stromverbrauch bei besserer Helligkeit und schönerer Lichtqualität ersetzt. In Summe habe ich durch den Austausch der alten gegen neue LEDs noch einmal 85W Verbrauchsleistung eingespart, wenn alle Lampen eingeschaltet sind. Am effizientesten sollten natürlich die Lampen sein, die auch am meisten genutzt werden und da könnte sich eine Neuinvestition vom Stromverbrauch und der Lichtqualität her lohnen, wenn ihr aktuell auch noch ältere LED-Birnen im Haus habt. Solltet ihr den Kauf von neuen LED-Birnen plant, achtet nicht nur auf die Wattzahl als Äquivalent einer klassischen Glühbirne achten. Denn die Helligkeit einer Birne wird in Lumen gemessen und danach solltet ihr die LED-Birnen vergleichen. Wenn also eine Birne 807 Lumen bei 7W Stromverbrauch leistet, dann wäre eine Birne mit 700 Lumen und einem Verbrauch von 7W die weniger effiziente. Auch die Lichtfarbe bzw. optische Temperatur ist bei der Auswahl wichtig. Diese wird in Kelvin (K) gemessen und wir mögen ein wärmeres Licht in unserem Wohnbereich und nehmen daher Birnen mit 2500-2700 K. Wenn die Zahl kleiner wird, ist das Licht wärmer. Und wenn sie höher ist, dann wird das Licht kälter. Um die 5500 K entspricht Tageslicht zur Mittagszeit, was gerne für Büros, Geschäfte und Ausstellungen genommen wird.  Alles was dann einen höheren Kelvin Wert hat wird dann blaustichig und optisch kalt.   --- Amazon-Links zu LED-Birnen --- 2 x Philips 60W (806 Lumen) Warmweiß 2.700 Kelvin, Stromverbrauch 7W: https://amzn.to/3Bo0d82 2 x Philips GU10 Sockel 50 Watt (355 Lumen) Warmweiß 2.700 Kelvin, Stromverbrauch 4,6W: https://amzn.to/3DA6CQg Philips LED GU5.3 Sockel, 50W ( 500 Lumen) Warmweiß 2.700 Kelvin, Stromverbrauch 7W: https://amzn.to/3UhWK3p 2 x Philips LED E14 Sockel 40 Watt (470 Lumen) Warmweiß 2.700 Kelvin, Stromverbrauch 4,3W: https://amzn.to/3qIpyVg     --- Amazon-Links zu Bluetooth/WLAN-Birnen --- 2x Philips Hue LED Dimmbar Filament E27 Sockel 60 Watt (550 Lumen) 2.100 Kelvin, Stromverbrauch 7W: https://amzn.to/3qNjzhL 2x Philips Hue LED Dimmbar (Helligkeit & Farbtemüperatur) E27 Sockel 75W (bis 1100 Lumen) 2200-6500 Kelvin, Stromverbrauch bis zu 8W: https://amzn.to/3BPvsKw     Im Garten haben wir jetzt auf Solarfackeln umgestellt, um abends und nachts ein paar Lichtquellen zu haben, die automatisch bei Dunkelheit angehen.

Passivhäuser haben z.B. oft aktive Lüftungsanlage damit ein ausreichender Luft- und Feuchtigkeitsaustauch in den sehr gut gedämmten Räumen möglich ist. Aber außerhalb der Heizperiode haben wir häufig die Fenster geöffnet und da sehe ich keinen großen Nutzen darin, wenn die Lüftung auch dann 24 Stunden durchläuft. Mit einer Zeitschaltuhr steuere ich die Lüftung jetzt so, dass sie Tagsüber bei geöffneten Fenstern nur immer 30 Minuten aktiv läuft und dann 30 Minuten pausiert. Nachts, bei geschlossenen Fenstern lasse ich sie dann wieder durchlaufen. So können wir ca. 25% des Stromverbrauchs pro Jahr für die Lüftung einsparen. Prüft doch mal, ob ihr schon eine intelligentere Lüftung habt, oder ob eure auch das ganze Jahr ständig läuft. Ein regelmäßige Filter Reinigung oder Austausch kann übrigens den Gebläsewiderstand verringern und auch Strom sparen. In vielen Haushalten gibt es Pumpen für verschiedenste Zwecke, die auch ziemlich viel Strom verbrauchen können, besonders wenn sie alt sind. Da man diese Pumpen nicht immer sieht und dann entsprechend keinen Strommessstecker anschließen kann, würde hier der Blick auf euren mit PIN freigeschalteten digitalen Stromzähler helfen, wenn ihr nach dem Freischalten den Momentanverbrauch im Haus kontrollieren könnt (das Prozedere dafür könnt ihr noch einmal in Folge 1 nachhören). So konnte ich feststellen, dass die Pumpe für den Wärmekreislauf unserer Solarthermieanlage im aktiven Betrieb knapp 100W. Sie springt aber nur an, wenn wir auch wärme durch Sonneneinstrahlung generieren und somit Gas einsparen. Daher ist das eine sinnvolle und gut gesteuerte Pumpe. Aber vielleicht habt ihr noch eine Ölheizung mit alten Pumpen die ständig laufen oder habt ihr irgendwo noch alte Wasserpumpen, die ständig aktiv sind? Da kommen schnell einige unnötige kWh an Stromverbrauch im Monat zusammen und evtl. lohnt sich ein Austausch alter Pumpen gegen effizientere oder auch eine intelligente Steuerung damit die Pumpen nur laufen, wenn sie auch wirklich gebraucht werden.   Habt ihr noch Stromspartipps, die für unsere Community interessant wären? Dann schreibt diese bitte in die Kommentare unter die Shownotes für Folge 2 auf www.EigenEnergieWende.de

Episode 4 - Cinematography with Karl Jenner Check out Karl's work here http://www.digitalrealm.com.au/Give Karl a follow https://www.instagram.com/karljenner66/ Transcript for our hard of hearing/deaf listeners Gareth Carr:Hey everyone, welcome to Action Cut and Everything in Between, episode number four. Today on the show, I've got Karl Jenner he was the director of photography on my film, my 50 man. And he's also just completed his own feature film called guilt. So we're going to jump right in and we're going to listen to the power of cinematography and the impact that it has on your movie. Gareth Carr:All right, so Karl Jenner, welcome to the show.Karl Jenner:Yeah, thanks for having me.Gareth Carr:That's all right. So you've just shot my film, Life After Man and your own feature film, Guilt. But how did you get to the point where you are now? Tell us about your journey over the years.Karl Jenner:For me, I actually started photography, underwater photography back in the day and always had a fascination with photography and cinema and anything creative, graphics and things like that. But my passion for diving led me into photography and I taught underwater photography. And through my diving, I worked on films and TV commercials, mainly doing a lot of underwater safety work, but some shooting as well. And I met up with an old character who shot documentaries on 16 mil. He used to build his own underwater housings and being working in the dive shop, we just chatted and I used to go out with him and we'd test all these housings and shoot all this underwater footage and things like that. And we ended up doing quite a bit. And then I just got hooked into filming and that kind of led me into where I am now.Karl Jenner:So just you know, an interest of anything creative in the photography field. And I worked on TV shows and did some big camera operating and shooting and eventually people asked me to shoot stuff for them, mainly corporate videos and corporate training and lots of this stuff. And I decided one day I'll just branch out on my own. And I had a very primitive set up back in the day with an older Amiga computer and an old video camera and an old VHS deck and a very primitive gen lock, which enable me to overlay graphics onto tape and just glue all this stuff together. So I had a very kind of early technical background in filmmaking. So this kind of led me from there. And just as the technology grew, I just grew with the tech. But I have to say, I got a bit disappointed with cameras, especially video cameras of how terrible quality they were.Karl Jenner:So I actually stopped shooting for quite a number of years and just got myself heavily into post production. And always had a fascination with visual effects, so I taught myself visual effects. I've done 3D animation ever since the very early days where you could do it on a home computer and actually wrote software out of a book, a Ray tracer that's how nerdy I was, and learned computer graphics that way. And then starting with my post production editing and graphics and visual effects work, I just spent years helping other people make their films and eventually the 5D Mark III came out. And so my interest then was piqued to get back into shooting. And so I bought a 5D Mark II and shot that with that.Karl Jenner:And then my passion just ignited from there and I've just been full steam ahead ever since, the shooting, shooting, shooting. Because now I can actually, what I have in my head or had in my head, I could actually get on screen. And so that's, I'm a bit of a perfectionist in a way. So I always hated those cameras and the look was horrible and everything was horrible about them. But the modern tech enabled me to get my creative vision that I had in my head across and we launched from there. So I just hung around with cameras and lenses and things like that and just became creative. So that's my journey in a nutshell.Gareth Carr:Yeah, that's awesome. So it was pretty much the DSLR revolution and the 5D Mark II that got you to where you are today?Karl Jenner:Yeah, pretty much. Probably, maybe a little bit earlier with the mini DV. I had a, I can't remember what it was, it was Panasonic FS 90 or something like that. And then I shot some, I actually shot a series for Fox Sports on old sports stars and where you actually use that little camera. And that kind of got me there, but I never used it to shoot really any kind of anything of significance. You know, I did my corporate work and stuff on that. But even when the price of cameras, like Digi beaters were astronomical and then they're crappy. So it wasn't until the 5D Mark III came out that I thought, "Nah, I can now get some focus separation and do all that fancy stuff that what kind of gives it that cinematic look." And it was at an affordable price, so there you go.Gareth Carr:Yeah. So since since the 5D, what cameras have you used or owned from that point to get to where you are now and tell everyone what camera that you're using now?Karl Jenner:Okay, well I bought a second hand 5D Mark II and then I had a 70 as well, and I was shooting quite a lot with that. And then the thing that made me kind of migrate up was the audio. The audio was always a challenge and post syncing though it was achievable, it was always fraught with danger. And so I built out a rig and it was like a big Franken monster just to get audio out, proper professional kind of audio with XLRs. And I had pre-amps and all these sort of things stuck in there. And it was just so many points of failure and always that fear in the back of your mind when you're on a big job that something was going to go really wrong. And then you'll get back to the studio and someone hadn't hit record or some, there was a hiss or a hum or something would just destroy it.Karl Jenner:So it was just this fear. So that's when Canon C100 came out so I was very interested in that camera. And then working with other DPs, I know a good DP friend of mine, Tom [Gleason 00:06:58] Had a RED Epic at the time and he also had a RED One and we did a lot of early testing on just some VFX and we shot some stuff on his RED One. So I was very familiar with the RED format and the difficulties in the early days of the R3D Kodak. But you know, being a bit of a tech head, I could get around all that. And I helped a lot of other companies deal with their workflows with the RED camera. But the C100 was in my price range, but it was only 1080p had Canon log on the camera, which is again it was interesting but I could see that the world was moving to 4K pretty quickly and then you could get 4K out the C100 I think, but you had to buy an extra module. And that price-wise, that pushed it up into the RED Scarlet range.Karl Jenner:So I started to look at the Scarlet as my next camera. And I, being familiar with the Red Epic of Tom's camera, I just thought the Scarlet is probably the way to go. It had 4K native, it had R3D, which is really the major selling point of the RED camera. So I jumped into that and I bought a Scarlet and I had, all my lenses went with it. Because I had a lot of Canon lenses. So I just bought a camera mount for it and for about the same price as the fully kitted out C100, I bought a RED Scarlet at the time. But it was based on the MX sensor, it was a great sensor, at the time it was probably the best one around, but it aged pretty quickly.Karl Jenner:And so I shot with that camera for about two years and it's enabled me to get on bigger projects, bigger, more high end stuff, shooting more high end projects. So that enabled me to basically, that camera paid for itself. And once you're in the RED ecosystem, you can actually, RED will buy your camera back and offer an upgrade path. And I think their mantra is obsolete, obsoletion, obsolete or something like that. And so I jumped and bought the Epic, which still was an MX sensor, but enabled me to shoot 6K and had all the goodies on that. And it wasn't compromised in any way. So I jumped to that. And then about probably 18 months, I had that camera and then they had the Dragon sensor come out and that was a beautiful sensor and still probably one of my favorite kind of looks in the RED line as sensors go.Karl Jenner:And so I used a lot of my money from that camera to buy that sensor. So I've got a sensor upgrade on that, which wasn't cheap, it was about $20,000 I think Australian. So it was serious money. But the camera was paying for itself. So I was kind of at a break even point by then. And I had the dragon for a good two and a half years I think. And that was a work horse, that was a real workhorse. Loved the look of it, that was just a tank. It was a bomb proof camera. Went through everything with me. And then, I then jumped to Epic W, which is then based on the HELIUM sensor. Again, I would've probably stuck with the Dragon for a lot longer.Karl Jenner:But the new form factor and all the new goodies that we're going in. And that's where they were going. And they offered a very good upgrade path. So I jumped on that. And so currently I shoot with the HELIUM 8K, which is basically the 8K Weapon. And that's my current camera. I don't know if I'm a RED fan boy or anything, but I'd be pretty camera agnostic if someone shoved a good camera under my face, I would use it, and that. But you use what you can afford. And fortunately I worked my way up into that camera over about five years. And that's the tool I've got. And it's, for somebody starting out, it's way out of most people's price range. But if you did what I did, you just start small and just build up and build up. But my God, the iPhone now shoots amazing pictures. So you know you can have a good camera. It's in your pocket.Gareth Carr:Yeah. Now we, well you shot both our films in 8K. Do you think that that's the way the industry is going and where will this resolution battle or war, where will it end and you know, what's the advantages that you found with shooting 8K?Karl Jenner:Okay. 8K yeah. I think 8K is where it's all going to go because TV manufacturers need to sell TVs. From a broadcast point of view, 8K is probably a long, long way away from a lot of broadcasts, especially in the country like Australia where some of the cable channels are still on standard def. Because it's cost prohibitive just to get in to HD. But as an acquisition format and a future proof your work, 8K is probably a good place to be. The reason I chose to shoot 8K for our projects was two fold, one is, it maximizes the full width of the sensor on the camera without having to go to [inaudible 00:12:30]. Because the way that the RED camera works is that you can have multiple resolutions but it's a sensor crop when you start to lower the resolution.Karl Jenner:So if you got down to 6K or 4K, it crops in on the sensor so you lose a little bit of the width of the sensor. Potentially compromising ... You got all those pixels that you paid for so you might as well use them. So I shoot 8K 2:1 which on the RED camera it's Super 35 but it's actually a little bit larger than a super 35 sensor. So on any of my lenses, I just want to maximize the width of that sensor. And 8K 2:1 gives me the full sensor across, because we shot the films with looking at doing a 235 output because you know, more cinematic. I just put up the frame guys for 235 and we just shot and framed everything within those guides.Karl Jenner:And it gives us the ability then to in post, just to do reframes and move, give people more head room if you feel like it, or lower the head room and that. But I'm not frightened of the 8K workflow and that. In fact my system here that I use, is not particularly powerful. I've got a five year old iMac Pro, 5K iMac. And I've just got a normal spinning backup drives but with a fast rate because I use Final Cut Pro just use their proxy workflow. And I barely touched the actual full res files which just sit on my drive and I've just got the proxy files sitting on my hard drive and I don't really have any slow kind of paid playback or anything like that. I've never had a glitch.Karl Jenner:I get perfect editing speed and I've got effects and layers and all that sorta stuff that all plays back in real time. So the workflow is not an issue with these computers, even a five year old iMac. But the ability to reframe, maximize the width of the sensor just gives you more possibilities and stuff. And I love the RED R3D which is really its signature selling point to have that, to have the ability to go in and when you're on set just to ... Because we're moving so quickly, we don't have a lot of lights or equipment, so difficult lighting situations or shooting in very low light, I can just, I know how to use the tools on the camera. So I just look at my histogram on the camera. I can look at the, I've got a little, a short cut to look at the raw sensor data so I can see what the sensor's seeing and if I can see detail in there and I can double check that across with my histogram and my tools, I'm pretty confident that I've got exposure I can work with in post.Karl Jenner:So when it comes back to post I can with the R3D I'm not locked into ISO or any of that stuff, so I can change that to do shot matching from shot to shot. Because I'm flying around the ISOs all the time just to try and get exposure as I need. I don't kind of lock myself into an ISO like some DPS will just say, we'll shoot 800 and that's it, the whole. But once you're so quickly and I need to get a stop or two stops and I don't have time to change an ND or anything like that, all right. And I do want to shoot fairly wide open most of the time one, five to two, eight is usually where I'm living.Karl Jenner:Sometimes I have to use an ISO change just to get those extra stops of light that I need. And I know that I can go in back into the R3D and change all that data if I need to. And you know, it's worked so far, so I'm pretty happy with that. That's why I think I liked the RED camera, just that flexibility and that bit of a safety net.Gareth Carr:Yeah, that's awesome. And Guilt and Life After Man both looking incredible. And I'd say, do you have a favorite shot now that you've edited Guilt and it's almost at it's kind of screener stage, do you look back through and you've got like a favorite shot from the film?Karl Jenner:For me I like all when the camera's moving. I don't think I've got a particularly favorite shot because the nature of the films that we've made, we're just moving so quickly. So I kind of have an idea of how I want the shot to go. But usually it's almost like shooting cinema verite in like you're making a documentary, you've got your actors all kind of lined up And as a DP you're looking for, trying to create some three dimensionality in your shot with a bit of separation and not having a large crew or a truck with any real light control and stuff. So it's really just kind of placing your actors very quickly, looking through my viewfinder and trying to find the best kind of composition and how to move and how to move the lighting that we've got into position and then snap that shot and then moving onto the next.Karl Jenner:So every shot was in a way a little bit challenging because a lot of the locations we would just walk in and we've got to figure it out on the fly. And so I think overall I'm pleased with pretty much all the shots because thinking back on how we got them, there's always kind of a pleasure. And at the time when you're shooting it, you're thinking, oh, I hope this works. And then you get back in the edit suite and you look at and think, "Okay, that's pretty good, I'm really happy with the results." But anytime I can get the camera moving, especially on the gimbals or little cheats or whatever, like we did sitting on the back of your truck, driving at 60 kilometers an hour hanging out the window, and those shots kind of worked.Karl Jenner:They are kind of like, wow, that's actually, yeah, that actually is really good. We got away with something and a lot of people will never know how it was done and think, wow you must have had a techno crane or some weird piece of gear. But it was really just gaffer tape and muscle power that gets the shot. So, yeah. So, yeah, no particular shot, but I'm pleased with how all the shots kind of come out. In Life After Man, I think probably my favorite shot is the horse shot with the sunset. You know, bomb it along with a gimbal that's at that breaking point, hanging out the window with the sun dropping and looking in the viewfinder, I could barely see thinking, I hope this is in frame and everything just lined up at the right time and it works.Gareth Carr:That's good. That's an awesome shot. I love it. So what advice would you give to people who want to shoot their first feature film? I know you said about starting small with your cameras and working their way up, but what about conditions to avoid? Like what's the most difficult conditions you'd say to shoot in and to avoid writing them into your script?Karl Jenner:Probably would be like shooting in the rain because rain has it's own kind of problems. Not for the fact that you don't want to get your camera wet, but you can be shooting in the rain in one direction and you can't even see it. Because you have to backlight rain to really see it. And then you turn it around to get your other coverage and suddenly it's bombing down with rain and you can see it. And then so when you go back to the edit suite and you're cutting, it's raining in one shot and not in another, even though it was raining. So I think above all, I think the biggest advice for anybody starting out in making a feature is control. You know, keeping control, having control of your set. Especially if you're using outdoor locations.Karl Jenner:And making sure you get the permissions and all that sort of stuff to shoot because there's nothing worse and we've experienced it, you know, when your guerrilla-ing and stuff that someone's going to kick you out and you've spent half a day getting all these shots and suddenly you can't even finish it, the work that you set out because you can't get access again and stuff. So having control and knowing that you can go in and you can block, you can work with your actors and get the shots and walk away at the end of the day. So above all it's control. And that control might have to spend money to get that by hiring a location and stuff. But the other things is just preparation.Karl Jenner:I think the thing with Guilt, even though we've managed to make a film, we were so time poor and we were always racing and that, because we had constraints before going in. We had a script and the script could have done with a few more revisions and stuff because we couldn't get the actors together to give them the words and then you want to hear those words by actors and then you can make those little changes. And if you get that script down and then you get on set, everybody knows what they got and you're not sitting there debating a bunch of dialogue. Because all that stuff's been done and then so you can get on set and everybody's on the same page. But if you try to make it up, that's always fraught with danger because then you end up with big continuity problems. So proper preparation prevents piss poor performance. So we weren't particularly prepared and we really paid for it at the end.Karl Jenner:And we were as prepared as we could with the time that we would given. But I would have love a bit more prep. And the thing with guilt is that was only myself and the main lead, Janet finding locations before we shot. So literally we spent two weeks finding all the locations for the film. So by the time we even got to the film where we're already knackered just by that sheer workload. So having people that can find your locations and do all of that paperwork and get all those permissions. And it was really myself, Janet and Lindsey doing a lion's share of the work even before we got to the shoot. And Lindsey, you know, she was based in Melbourne so she couldn't help out in that department. So she was doing as much of the prep work, getting on the phone, giving us permissions, doing all that sort of stuff.Karl Jenner:And then I was doing, up here, doing all the leg work, finding locations, negotiating with people, things like that. So by the time you get to that first day of shooting, you're completely knackered and you need to be fresh as a daisy because once those cameras roll, it's if you're shooting a big block, it's ... For us we shot for 15 days pretty much straight and after 15 days you are completely floored. And so yeah, script. Get the script right and be properly prepared. Cameras are irrelevant at that point. Get a good camera obviously to shoot your piece. But that's, you get a good DP, actually, he should come with his camera and not worry about all of that stuff. So look at your script to break it down, work out your scenes, get your actors together, do a script read, then get to set and everybody is on the same page and prepared to work. Because I think a lot of people in with short films start out on that adventure of making a film and it just gets bogged down in detail and everybody loses sight of what the end goal is and everybody loses direction and it only becomes too hard.Karl Jenner:And you end up, people walk away and I think a lot of films are never finished because it does get hard. And that can all be eliminated in the beginning if you're prepared. And for anybody out there who's going to be a director or the writer, producer, director, you just got to have tenacity and you got to fight every day to get your script done and stuff. But at the end of the day, it's worth it because I forget about all the pain now. I remember from your film, how many days we spend freezing cold on that farm. And it's worth it at the end of the day. It's like, you look at the fruits of your labor and you look it up on screen and you forget how you did it. In fact, I think I look at 80 and 90% of it thinking, I don't remember shooting that stuff. And that's what makes it worthwhile because then you just become an audience member and you can watch it.Gareth Carr:That's it. Sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Yeah.Karl Jenner:That's it. And knowing that you've done it, it's just that sense of accomplishment because I think a lot of people want to go make a movie, but a lot of people don't even try because one, because a lot of people tell them it's too hard and you'll never succeed. And the other is that they do try, but they don't realize the burden or the amount of work that they're going to have to do. And that puts them off and stuff. But if you really want to do it, you'll do it and you'll do anything to do it. but it is worthwhile at the end of the day, even though you'd probably be poor at the end of it.Gareth Carr:That's it. You'll have no money but it's worth it. No, it's great. Such good advice. So where do you see now the future of cinema heading? I know we had 3D a couple of years back that seems to have died its death now, and then you've got kind of your 360 and AR now. Do you think that's going to take over or do you think the way cinema is, is it's here to stay?Karl Jenner:I think, personally I don't think you can beat the current cinema experience. I think 360 has its place, but I don't think it's an entertainment platform. I was involved not so long ago in doing some 360 tests for narrative with some good friends of mine. I was actually a little bit cranky and stuff because we've been talking about making films for so long and then 360 comes up and it's, oh we'll do 360 and I'm like kind of saying we just spent five years solving all the other problems. So now we've got all the cameras, I've got all the gear, we've got everything, we should be making a film and now you want to go solve a whole another set of problems, you know?Karl Jenner:And I said, let someone else figure that out. And I can't, personally don't want to sit in a room with a big headset on to have watch this movie. I think it'd be great as an experience. Just to go in, especially if it's like a good ghost story, a short film or whatever. But I don't think as a filmmaker I want to have people sit in a cinema and then look all around the room. As a filmmaker you want to ... But I've put something over there, there's the clue and then you've got somebody's looking at the back of the room because, that looks interesting. But I did read some statistics with 360 and it was like the first, and these were videos that were on YouTube and you can look at the analytics and this is why I'm always having these big discussions about doing 360. And it kind of transpired that it was usually the first 30 seconds people would look around, and then their vision would be usually where we watch movies because the experience was over and stuff.Karl Jenner:So they started to watch the movie where it was supposed to be. So it's like, but you went to all this effort to make this 360 movie. But the other issue with 360 movies are, where do you put the lights? Where do you put the crew? Everybody has to hide behind trees or duck behind cars. And you know, it's just like, no, no. 3D's again interesting, again an experience kind of movie. I think it's great for animation and things like that. 3D movies don't make me sick at all so I can put the goggles on and watch it and it doesn't bother me. So I can enjoy a good 3D movie and that. But going for, that's for high end productions. You got to have the dollars to do it.Karl Jenner:And most movies now aren't shot in 3D, they shoot with just one camera and they just dimensionalize them after the fact and stuff. I have been involved in doing some early 3D testing and things like that. And I've got some very good friends, Alpha geeks that worked on that stuff. And Yeah. But again, died a death, because I think people just want to go to the movies, pay their 10 bucks or 15 bucks, have that popcorn and just enjoy something and just be transported somewhere else and stuff. So yeah, putting on the headset and it kind of isolates you from the person next to you as well if you're wearing a big headset. So.Gareth Carr:Yeah, you might as well just sit at home-Karl Jenner:Sit at home.Gareth Carr:... and do that.Karl Jenner:Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, I think the way we're shooting movies now, even high frame rates, I don't like high frame rates. I think 24 looks really nice. There's a big push to have all those TVs, the DPS from Hollywood all want those TV's to come with the default off of that super smooth motion they stick on the TVs because it makes your work look like a soap opera. So, yeah. So anyway, maybe I'm a traditionalist, but-Gareth Carr:No, no, I'm with you on this one. I like it, yeah. I like what you're saying. [crosstalk 00:30:52].Karl Jenner:... But also from a post side of view, I don't want to rendering out 24 frames at high res it takes a long time, I don't want to do 48.Gareth Carr:I know. Right? Listen, this has been awesome Karl. Like I hope this has inspired people to just get out there and make their feature and you don't have to have a RED, do you, to shoot a movie.Karl Jenner:No, right. There's some amazing, very cheap cameras out there that just cut your teeth on something that's achievable and eventually all that stuff will become available as you progress as a filmmaker. People want to work with you and all that high end gear will naturally kind of come with it. But at the end of the day, you can give someone a RED camera or an Arial or something like that and they can still make it look bad. So the camera doesn't mean a thing. I know it's cliche and when you own a camera, big camera and saying, Oh, you've just got to use the camera because everybody craving for that new, big toy. But yeah, essentially at the end of the day most of these lower end cameras, sub $5,000 cameras and make amazing images like your little black magic pocket cinema cameras, just that's an amazing camera .for less than $2,000 you can shoot a feature on that no problem. RED cameras and Alexis and things, they come with a whole life support team because you're just going to have so much stuff on them. You can make them lightweight, but you know when we're shooting, you so often, I don't have a big set up, but that was still heavy and to lug that around all day. So yeah, shoot with what you have, make good films. That's the way to do it.Gareth Carr:So listen, where can people see more of your work and see your back catalog of stuff that's brought you to this point?Karl Jenner:I don't really have a big social media presence, but just go to karljenner.net and that's my DP site. You can see some of the stuff and some of the shorts on there. A lot of my stuff is client work never really ever sees the light of day. And I'm on a Instagram as @karljenner66, @karljenner66. That's how much I use it.Gareth Carr:Well there you go. Check all those out and hopefully-Karl Jenner:I'm getting better.Gareth Carr:Yeah, you're getting followers. Well, after this you never know, you might get a couple more followers. We'll see.Karl Jenner:I might get 10.Gareth Carr:But no, this has been awesome. Like I've loved hearing about your story and the process that you go through to shoot and like I'm just blown away with how Life After Man looks and I think it's probably going to be like one of the best looking zombie movies of all time and I can't wait to see how Guilt goes and the journey.Karl Jenner:Yeah. I've basically just got the screener ready and the Looking really good. I spent the afternoon painting out logos. The tedious work that you end up doing. That's why I always say to people, you always start out with like two people, three people with an idea and then you ramp up to your shooting and you might have 20 or 30 people and then eventually one day it's you in a room by yourself. And it becomes a labor of love. And I'm a perfectionist and bit of a pixel peeper. So I'll go in there and fix stuff that I probably don't even need to fix, but it annoys me. So I want to fix it. But yeah. But the film's looking really, really good and the story-wise and everything came together and I haven't even done the grade yet or we haven't got a sound mix or anything like that.Karl Jenner:And I'm really, really happy and super proud of everybody that worked on it. And it was a bit of a journey to get there, but we got there in the end and I think when people see it, they'll actually be quite surprised because when you're shooting a film, it doesn't look like a film, you know? And I've always said that's one of the reasons I love to operate as a DP because when I look through the lens, I actually get to see the movie. It's extraneous of all the other things that are around, you don't see any lights stands, you don't see any other people standing around. And that I just look at the lens and look at the actors and once you get a good performance and you know it in your eye that you can see it happening and you know, you've got some good stuff and you'd just piece together the film in your head.Karl Jenner:And that's the same with Guilt. And same with Life After Man. I could see everything as I'm shooting it and stuff. So I knew when the edit came together exactly how it would look and how it would feel. And it's once you get into the grade and you start to really craft it and that's a bit I like as well is just crafting your movie and eventually you can sit back and it looks amazing and sounds amazing and you're chuffed to bits that you've actually gone ahead and done it and stuff. So. But yeah, I'm super happy. With your crew, I think life After Man, it felt like a little family, when we were tucked away on the farms and all the right remote areas and things like that we were filming in. And we had all these animals and horses and all those things and you really bond as filmmakers and I always think in my mind, it's just a bunch of crazy, crazy filmmakers in the middle of nowhere trying to make this film, and everybody else would be laughing at you for doing it, but you get a kick out of doing it because it's fun. And it's fun and it's tough, but it's well worth it. And that sense of camaraderie and everybody on the same trajectory and it's inspiring to see.Gareth Carr:Yeah. I feel like it's not just the movie, it's the journey that the people that you go on the journey with that makes it, makes the experience what it is.Karl Jenner:I always find, yeah, that first day that everybody meets, no one really knows each other and by the end of the journey you're all like best buddies. Or people that, they'd ring you up and say, "Hey, can you come and help me on my thing?" And you go, "Yeah, absolutely. I'll be there in a heartbeat," because they've shed blood for you kind of thing and then so you're willing to go to bat for them and they need you. And that this kind of level, where you do rely on a lot of favors and people giving up time and going out of their way and stuff. And you could use that going back to preparation for other people's films, just be mindful of people's time and try and schedule around that and stuff.Karl Jenner:Because the last thing you want is to piss your people off and just be mindful of all of that. Yeah, and you'll find the end of that journey you'll end up with some good relationships and then those people might get a really good gig and then bring you along with them. And that's how it all works. So, you never know. So the industry's too small to really piss people off.Gareth Carr:Yeah, definitely.Karl Jenner:Yeah.Gareth Carr:Well Karl, listen, this has been so good. And I hope everybody's taken a lot of information out of it and yeah, hopefully you all go on and just have the confidence to shoot your own films. So Karl, thank you very much.Karl Jenner:No worries. Pleasure.Gareth Carr:All right. Cheers mate.Karl Jenner:All right. See you.

On the show this week @erfon / @lewiswallace / @lkahney Pre-Order Leander's new book! https://amzn.to/2XXTWLO Why this week’s Apple PR blitz is brilliant [Opinion] Apple is reaching Hannukah levels of gifting this week with significant new hardware releases on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.   MONDAY On Monday Apple released a new iPad Air 3 and iPad Mini 5 iPad Air 3 The new iPad Air has a 10.5-inch Retain display, A12 Bionic chip, and first-generation Apple Pencil support. Performance-wise, it’s just as fast as the iPhone XS. This iPad replaces the older 10.5-inch iPad Pro that Apple’s been selling for $650 up until now $500 for the 64GB model iPad Mini 5 iPad mini now delivers three times the performance and nine times faster graphics. Improved Retina display with True Tone, wide color support, is 25 percent brighter than before. A12 Bionic processor first-generation Apple Pencil support Headphone jack! the same $399 price tag as the previous model.   TUESDAY On Tuesday Apple gave some much needed spec bumps to the iMac, added better RAM and GPU options to the iMac Pro, and even dropped the prices on some of their high-end MacBook Pros! iMac iMac lineup has been updated with Intel's latest 8th-gen and 9th-gen Core processors, including a six-core 8th-gen Core i7 with Turbo Boost, and a monster eight-core 9th-gen Core i9 with Turbo Boost up to 5.0GHz (for the 27-inch 5K iMac). Apple says the new i7 brings a 60% performance increase for the 21.5-inch iMac, and up to a 240% for the for new i9 iMac. Radeon Pro Vega graphics options are now available across the new iMac lineup, including Vega 20 for 21.5-inch models and Vega 48 for 27-inch models. Apple advertises up to 80 percent faster graphics performance compared to the previous iMac lineup. New RAM and storage options are also available. Base iMac STILL include a 5400RPM mechanical hard drive… Mac Pro now available with Vega 64X graphics and 256GB RAM Those with a need for speed can now equip the iMac Pro with an AMD Radeon Pro Vega 64X graphics card and up to 256GB of RAM for the first time. But be prepared to break the bank Apple drops prices on some high-end MacBook Pros There’s good news for MacBook Pro buyers looking for a lot of storage: Apple has lowered the costs of its most-expensive SSD options. When upgrading your SSD, you can save $200 for the 2TB option, and $400 for the 4TB option. The bad news is that Apple didn’t change prices on any MacBook Pro SSDs that are 1TB or smaller. Putting a 1TB drive in a high-end 15-inch MacBook is still an extra $400 over the cost of a 512GB one, for example. The total package, with 256GB of RAM and everything else as standard, is $10,199. If you add every possible upgrade to the iMac Pro, not including software or a VESA Mount Adapter, it costs $15,699.   WEDNESDAY New AirPods deliver hands-free ‘Hey Siri’ and better battery life Apple’s newest wireless buds are here with a brand new H1 chip that allows for hands-free “Hey Siri.” They also promise better battery life in between charges, and even faster connectivity. An optional Wireless Charging Case is also available, but it’s not cheap. AirPods 2 have the same $159 price tag, or $200 with the wireless charging case. The wireless case a la cart is $79.   With New Unlimited Plan, MoviePass Swears It's Got Its Shit Together Thanks to MacDonald Ted for this glorious story. On Monday, MoviePass announced the new plan, which it is calling “Uncapped.” Under the Uncapped plan, subscribers can watch one 2D film a day, for $19.95 per month. A “limited time” offer gets you that same deal for just $9.95 per month with a one-year commitment. But can we trust MoviePass? Of course they’re playing games in their terms of service. A line in their user agreement gives MoviePass the right to throttle a user’s filmgoing options in the event that an individual’s use of the service has an adverse impact on “MoviePass’s system-wide capacity or the availability of the Service for other subscribers.”

Already sold out for 1-2 weeks! Thinner, and even smaller.  12.9” now the size of a sheet of paper. No headphone jack... Big performance increases, big price increases. Start price is now about 20% higher. 11-inch models start at $799 (Wi-Fi) and $949 (Wi-Fi + Cellular), while 12.9-inch models start at $999 iPad Pro comes with Apple's next-generation Neural Engine for advanced machine learning  This is the first gadget besides iPhone that will include FaceID.   Powered by the new A12X Bionic chip A12X Bionic has eight cores (four performance cores and four efficiency cores) and per Apple provide up to 35 percent faster single-core performance.  Seven-core GPU to deliver up to twice the graphics performance.  They say it’s now as powerful as an Xbox One S console. USB-C connector is replacing the Lightning connector, Allows iPad to charge your iphone What can connect to the iPad?  USB Hubs?  Hard Drives?  Printers?  Even Apple said they weren’t sure when The Verge asked them. Connect to external displays up to 5K… but why? Still no file system. No mouse support. Apple is trying to position this as a laptop, but it’s not a laptop. Apple Pencil 2 gets magnetic connection and charging, better iOS integration, and a 30% higher price tag (now $130) BTW: Previous 10.5” iPad is still available, and still for the same 64GB base price of $649.  256 and 512 models are also still available.       Macbook Air - a confusing product Newest gen Amberlake 8th gen dual core CPU Complete overhaul Retina Display New 3rd get butterly keyboard TouchID Larger Force Touch track pad Made from 100% garbage Also gets a 20% increase in price for the base model with 128GB, now $1200. Previous model is still available for the same $1000 price tag. Maxed out model with 16GB of RAM and 1.5TB - $2600 MacBook is now more expensive than the Air, starting at $1,299 and it has a slower processor, a smaller screen and it has fewer upgrade options. MBA now just $100 than the 13” MacBook Pro with faster processor and Intel Iris graphics.   Mac Mini Full overhaul Space Gray finish HDMI 2.0 two USB 3 ports four Thunderbolt 3 ports a headphone jack  and — for an extra $100 — a 10-gigabit ethernet port. With the Thunderbolt 3 ports A new cooling system doubles the airflow, allowing the machine to run at a maximum sustained power that is 70 percent higher than before According to Geekbench 4 scores, the base 4-core CPU has close to the same performance of the base 2017 5K iMac. $799 base model comes with 128GB of SSD, a  quad core 8th gen coffeecake i3 CPU with no turbo boost or hyper threading, and 8GB of ram. The maxed out with 64GB of RAM, 2TB SSD, and 6-core i7 CPU is a mere $4200. But the huge omission here is the Intel UHD Graphics 630.  There is no option to upgrade.     MacBook Pro    New MacBook Pros with updated graphics are coming next month https://www.cultofmac.com/586666/new-macbook-pro-graphics/ Apple has screwed us, their loyal pro users. Just about 3 months ago, on July 12, 2018, Apple introduced refreshed MacBook Pro models aimed at professional users, with the long awaited 6-core Coffee lake processors, up to 32GB of RAM, and slightly better GPUs.  Apple positioned these as video editing dream machines. It had been years since a compeling MBP update, so people were excited and scooped them up when they went on sale. But the graphics cards on these new MBPs were only minor spec bumps. The 560X was just a spec bumped 560, which was itself only a spec bump’d 460. Fast forward to this week, Apple has announced they will be offering a massive upgrade option to the Radeon Pro Vega GPUs, the same ones offered in the iMac Pro.  These new graphics options offer up to 60 perfect faster graphics performance in video editing, 3D design, and rendering workloads…  you know, the exact things people are BUYING THIS FCKING MBP FOR. Clearly, Apple knew they were going to offer this upgrade, but they didn’t tell us.   Why?  Because they knew many of us might wait to buy, and they wanted our money.   5 things we didn’t get at Apple’s ‘More in the Making’ event https://www.cultofmac.com/586726/apple-october-press-event-airpower-ipad-mini-airpods/

Veckans snackis Tim Cooks intervju med WSJ Tim snackar Apple Pay i kort, intressant video Därför försvann iPod Classic Även Xiamoi’s VP Hugo Barra var på WSJ D. Veckans lyssnarfråga Frågan: Uppgraderade precis till Yosemite och då går det inte längre att hitta Bootcamp längre. Partitionen finns där, men går inte att boota från. Samma sak hände när Mavericks kom. Fick då installera om Bootcamp på alla företagets elva datorer. Nu funderar jag om man törs uppgradera alla andra datorer till Yosemite eller , och varför Apple alltid mörkar alla problem som om de inte fanns. Enda stället man hittar något om det här är på diskussionsforumet där ganska många andra har samma problem. Inget supportärende, inga svar eller råd från Apple. Irriterande. Hälsningar Richard Svaret: Vänta med att uppgradera om Bootcamp är viktigt för dig. Än så länge finns ingen som har något bra sätt att återställa det om det slutar fungera. På den ljusa sidan bör Apple kunna fixa problemet, och ingen data har gått förlorad. Problemet är i korthet att macen inte ser Windows som en enhet som går att starta från, men Windows i sig är lika helt som tidigare.
