I'm shooting a short in a few weeks. Its takes place entirely in a bathroom and the script is all dialog, fast, witty, dirty.
It's a nice sized bathroom but of course once you stick three people all on the far side of the room it shrinks pretty quickly. My original idea was to put my 7 foot diffuser panel in the door way and shoot a 750 watt light through as an over all fill and on the actor mediums/tights use a kino diva to enhance. Last night I tested out the 750 through the diffuser and it gave a nice light. I'm not sure, I just wondering what everyone else had to say, if anyone had any recommendations.
Shooting light through the windows is out because we are on the second floor of a house with 15 foot ceilings.
As for what equipment I'll be using.
