Just got back from Barcelona where I played with shooting skateboarding on film. Jesus, it's hard. Everyone recommended Portra 400, so that's what I got, but because it was always sunny and the film is so sensitive, I always had to keep the aperture closed almost all the way which ruined the depth of field. And I still need to learn a lot about correct exposure - some of the shots are either too dark, or don't have enough contrast. In hindsight, I think I should've got the Portra 160 and open the aperture a bit more.
