hi to you all . can anyone tell me the nomber of chocolate gel effect ?

I've put two 1K's on a double-head mount on one stand and panned them through windows. You could put those on dimmers too, and you could swing them on a menace arm if you want a little tracking effect, otherwise you may have to dolly the lights.

hi , you can also pan the 1k to a miror reflector . it's give you two directions from one source.

hi' im about to film a short movie next week which basicaly takes place in one aprtmant. the most dramtic scene is a guy standing in front of a canvas painting' behind him is a big window the camra is in motion rowards him from his back in slow dolly movment until it discovers whats on the canas. my q is' i would like to light up the room using the background window which will poor the light in on the guy', i have some quats 800 and one 2000 which i can wrap with blue gel, the thing is that i want to achive some kind of a blue fill or beem that will fall on the person' any sugastions?

 

thanx

hi roy . first you didnt wrote about the format you going to work with . the direction of the window (n,e,s,w)

is very important too, is your camera is much sensitiv to hald with strong outdoor bounce light and a small hase machine ? could work nice , the price is over exp in the window when you soot it directly..

good luck.

So I just got a job replacing another DP and was thrown into a situation where I can't change much. And because I don't have a lot to work with, I would appreciate some ideas. I'm shooting a Panasonic DVX 200, an exterior with indirect sunlight (but a lot of it) and I have a 4k HMI par, a couple of 3x3 bounce cards, and a 12x12 silk. I'm lighting a guy sitting down and at some point, reaching for somethin on the floor. I'm trying to come up with something to make it look interesting, any master tricks to suggest? Thanks a lot for your help

hi . another way of lighting is to block some of your sources. what about using your 12*12 frame - black, from one of the actor side . that will biger size the contrast and bring a direction to your light .

sorry about my poor english . good luck...

Hello!! I am wondering how to light-up the eyes (meaning having a glow or reflection in the iris) of an actor.

 

What are the different techniques used in various situations as close ups, medium shots and moving shots (steadicam or dolly)???????

 

Thank you for your time and knowledge!!!

hi . using a frontal small eye lance lamp will do it . glow efect dosnt working from medium. s and longer because of the small eye surface in the fram.

hello , my first time in the forum .
