Hi all,
i am an amateur cinematographer from India. There is a project i am shooting and would like some help
i am shooting a scene which involves a corridore.
What i want to do is have sun light coming in from the sides. However i want the sun rays. As in i want the sun light flodding in through these small windows however i would like the rays to be distinguished.
One of the typical method is to light up with smoke. However that is not possible as i cant have any smoke in that scene.
I studied another method by the Great Sacha Virne, he used a white stripe reflected in the mirror using a white stripe which created a ray. however that had some magical feelign to it which i want to avoid. Also i need two rays, so that's not possible.
I will probably be lighting up the scene to 5.6. So i am wondering is it possible to get the rays without any smoke. What should the exposure be . Also the lights we get are not much. So most i can do is use a senior 4k, or an HMI 10k. Please let me know what would be the best way to get this effect.
Thank you
