I used to work in the film industry, and we had a language all our own.
I leave it to others to translate this perfectly average exchange between me and the Director of Cinematography ("DP")
DP: Marty, I need a couple of mighty-moles on a hi-hi-boy over here, put some half CTO on them, and bring a couple of scrims in on the bottom"
ME: OK, we're out of mighty-moles, but I have a baby and a baby-baby I can put all on a trombone and it might work the same.
DP: Nah, just put a 5K up and then we can ND it to what I need.
ME: OK, give me a minute to get the western dolly out of the way and we'll put it on a crank-o-vator.
DP: Cool!
