Here's the scenario:
We're a small start-up video production company that is experimenting with the idea of Real Estate Walk-Thru videos. The key to these are that we keep the costs next to nothing so that the price will reflect this.
I can only imagine that this has been asked before but since I couldn't find it while searching the forums, I'll just post it here. Shooting on mini-DV inside a house, the large windows are making me pull my hair out. Of course, the area around the window exposes with a blue tone while the rest of the room keeps that orange tint from the tungsten light bulbs throughout the house. White balancing to either the window lighting or the room lighting doesn't really produce favourable results. And then there's the issue of overexposure that I'm not having any luck curbing as well. I don't really have the option of covering all the windows in CTO or diffusion of some sort but am starting to think that there really isn't any other solution.
If there is a work-around that someone can suggest, I would LOVE to hear about it at this point.
Thanks in advance.
