steve waschka Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) Guys I do black and white film and color video. But NO color film. I want to change that and do some color film. But I am scared of the learning curve to get color right. I white balance my video and dig stills cameras a lot. I like the cooler look. I have an ever-so-lightly pink tinged card that gets me nice blue sky but no overly desaturated skin tones or blue tinted shadows. I shoot a ton of sports. Mostly high sunlight. But increasingly having to deal with stadium lights. Lets forget about stadium lights for now. I'll quit photography if I try to wrap my head around getting that right for film regularly right now. What cc filter would you toss me out of your bag to get me a starting point for late morning shoots? Thanks in advance! PS frame grabs would be awesome! Thanks again!

Chris Burke Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Try shooting a gray card with a Tiffen 812 on the lens and then have the colorist time it out. That might give you the blue you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
