Rainy day shoot

[Ofri Margalit]

Hi everyone,

I'm gaffing a shoot next week and we're doing a day for night interior.

I'm going to create large "boxes" from 12 by black cloth outside and push through with Aputure 600C's.

The thing is that it's supposed to be rainy, and I'm a bit scared that the rain will be too heavy for the top 12 by, putting stress on it.

I would like to ask if someone has ideas on what I should do.  

Thank you!

Tilt the 12x so the rain runs off of it.

Ideally you would use a Black/White Griff

Just use something nylon like griff or ultrabounce w/ black on one side. for sure a 12x black rag will get really heavy and soaked if its pouring rain on it.

Ofri,

Is the rain supposed to be visible to the camera?

Hi, no it does not

 

Thank you everyone, using griff makes sense
