ale elaiuy Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hi, I'll be shooting soccer supporters crowd next week and some of them will have pyrotechnic emergency red flares in their hands... We shot a camera test last week and the director found that the red from the flare turns people skins way too red too. I've thinking of using some filter to soften that a little... Do you think that would be a good ideia? Is there anything else that can be done?? Thanks! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member John Sprung Posted October 9, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted October 9, 2009 About the only thing is to fill them with some white light. It'll help, but you probably can't get rid of all the red. But it could get you to where you can tweak it in timing. -- J.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Chris Keth Posted October 10, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted October 10, 2009 Is this a day or night thing? If it's night, the camera could perhaps wear a cooling filter (something in the realm of 1/4 blue or 1/2 blue, I don't remember the filter names for those). It will read like a moonlight effect and will also tame the red light some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
