Matias Nicolas Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Hi I'm shooting in 10 days comercial in a futbol stadium . We are planning to support our light with the HQI Lamps from the stadium . Does somebody knows the color temperature? Or if they are more blueish or greener? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vobla Unsane Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Hi, I would assume modern stadiums to be equiped with good quality lighting.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrargyrum_quartz_iodide wikipedia suggests that temperature can vary depending on composition, so hope that they used same type of bulbs for the whole stadium. I'm quite a newbie when it comes to lighting, so it gives me ideas what I should be reading, but I would white balance on stadium lights, look at the camera temperature and green/magenta shift and would match my lights accordingly.. Interesting, looking forward to read some replys :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Adrian Sierkowski Posted March 19, 2013 Premium Member Share Posted March 19, 2013 It's going to depend on what lights they have in there, which bulbs. Your best bet would be to get into the stadium during a night game with a color meter which'll give you all the information you'd need as you'd need to match your lights with the stadium lights, and then probably throw a filter on the camera.
