Simona Analte Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hello, Young student soon to shoot a short film which takes place mostly at a laundromat, at night Not too sure how to create an; unsettling, tense, cold, bare, dark - mood for this picture. The space is big and has one large window. One of my concerns is that flickering green hue that the florescent bulbs produce. Wondering perhaps if it's a good idea to leave the florescent-tubes as they are( with the green-hue ), apply a "greenish" make-up on the subject's face and then in Post, take-away all the Green ( - ) out. Ive been told that that would "normalize" and balance out the colors. Wondering if anyone could tell me if that is true and is good approach...? Also thinking to minimize some of the bulbs being turned "on" the ceiling (or have just one light flicker), to create that tension, anxiety in the atmosphere. Any suggestions would be helpful and highly appreciated! Thank you Simona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Tamer Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 couldn't you white balance for Flourescent and use Kino Flos as additional lighting? Just an idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
