Hey all,
New to the forums but I've found a lot of great stuff here.
Next week I'm shooting an extremely low budget music video (we're working with like $100). The main part of the video involves the musicians sitting in an old hotel/motel room. There's a plethora of places around town to shoot at for relatively cheap, but I'm curious if anyone else has done this before and if it caused any issues.
The main issue I'm worried about is noise and light. The setting takes place early morning, so I want to shoot a 1k through the outside window of the motel room to simulate an early morning look. Firstly, will a motel room circuit be able to handle powering a 1k? And secondly, do you think it's better for me to try and clear this with the motel management or just start shooting and hope no one cares. It'll probably take 3-4 hours of shooting, and I'm looking to shoot from about 9pm-1am. Also, we will be as quiet as possible, but we still have to have song playback...
I'm just newly out of college so I dont own my own business or have insurance...
Help!
