Hello everyone, just wanted to check in with you

Triaging on the way to shoot a scene. Ideally, have to have something like attached reference from the Carpenter's "Halloween" 1978.

Since there are reflections in the windshield, I guess it's safe to assume that there are no solids to kill the reflection of the sky, but I guess there is just Polarizer + right car orientation + process trailer with bunch of lighting to get enough levels on the characters. Do you think it's correct? 

Overall, I'm trying to figure out, if there's a way I can get away without process trailer and I have strong feeling that I am not (if it's exactly this referece) and shot live 

Thank you!

David posted something on his instagram about it. https://www.instagram.com/p/DGPe2VgxBU2/?hl=es&img_index=1

By reading the comments:

- use a polarizer and push light in at eye level
- in a wide shot of the windshield usually a polarizer only reduces reflections on one side of the windshield, it’s not even across so stretching in a net frame over the top like a shelf sticking out from the top edge of the roof would reduce the brightness of the sky without cutting the reflections completly as a solid would do.
