Thank you Cameron for responding. I'm tending to the "real location" solution. During the work on storyboards it occurred that some scenes can be static, some can take place on streets with lamps. The "green screen" solution would probably be the best, but it would also be the most expensive and complicated. Good luck on the desert :) Jakub.

Hi Lucas! Thank you for responding :) The problem is that the most of the scenes take part in a countryside... There is not much light I could use as an ambient. Another complication for the shooting on real location is that most of the time the car is going really fast. Have you ever been trying to use rear projection? Maybe that's a good solution? I could control the speed than and I suppose that when it's in a background, out of focus, it can be convincing... so far I've just done it once, not for a movie, just for "practicing my skills" but it was set in a "city mood" so I could use neon and sodium lamps to imitate. If you have any good examples of night car scenes from some movies, share them with me...I'll very glad :) Thank you! Jakub.

Hey! I'm preparing for a short movie. It's a little bit of a "cinematographer's nightmare" so I need a little bit o support :) The most of the action is set in a driving car at night. The exterior is not a city so I cannot rely on city lights etc. The question is what method of filming would bring the best results... in the aspect of "look" and "shooting". I suppose that putting a car on the platform doesn't really make sense...everything behind the windows will be dark anyways (fields, forests etc) I was considering a day for night effect but there are some complicated scenes in which characters drive the car, than stop it and get outside... Now, I'm hesitating between 3 "studio" options: 1.Greenscreen 2.Blackscreen 3.Rear projection. Which one would you recommend?! Does anyone could share his expercience and knowledge? I've already done some night scenes in the car but this gonna be may hardest task :) Thanks a lot! Jakub Burakiewicz vimeo My link my site My link
