Hello all,
I have a shoot coming up beginning in the first week of June. The director would like the entire EXTERIOR scene to look like it takes place under overcast skies. However, knowing the weather around here, we will probably be shooting in the woods during bright, sunny conditions. I'm in the middle of research to pull this off, but I'm welcoming any suggestions.
I intend to shoot some tests. Right now I'm leaning towards creating a canopy of Visqueen or silks for close ups, but the wide shots are a bit more problematic. Here's some info about what we'll be using, again suggestions regarding making the woods appear to be under overcast skies during sunny weather are welcome:
Super 16mm Black and White film (KODAK Negative 7231)
CP-S16 Camera
No lighting instruments, enhancing available light with reflectors, nets, silks, flags, etc.
Scenes contain mixture of close and wide shots, mostly capturing action sequences.
Thanks guys,
Ryan H. Martin
