Hugh, I too am a student and planning to shoot a music video on 16 in a week or two. I, like you, haven't much film experience and have similar questions. Though, I wanted to ask you a bit about your your location and available light. I went location scouting last week under overcast skies and in the forest, which is dense and green, my images are underexposed. So, I'm assuming that your location has little or no canopy. Is that true? If so, I imagine this difference is due to our respective locations or I am missing something here!? I've attatched a one of my location photos for reference it was shot at ISO 500 F3.5 at 125th of a second as I was originally intending to shoot at 60FPS. Anyones input here would be much appreciated! -Ryan
