Thanks very much Bruce and Andrew. We're definitely going for a high contrast look and we're shooting in a studio which I think helps a bit more than daylight. It's very helpful to see examples and know the setup that resulted in them. Hopefully after the film is processed I can share my own results here.

Hi everyone, I'm new here, hoping someone here has had experience lighting glitter/mylar/confetti. The director is looking to drop small rectangular pieces of mylar confetti onto a static subject and wants it to glisten/twinkle on camera. The subject is lit from the top (halo lighting, likely with a diffused ARRI 1k) but I'm wondering if that somewhat hard lighting would do the trick or if I need to light the confetti differently? I'm shooting on 16mm 500T Kodak. Thanks.

I'm using the Bolex H16 and Tobin intervalometer to shoot dusk timelapse with 500T Kodak stock. I have a couple of questions: - In 'Normal Exposure' and using a 5 stop down filter, do I still adjust my light meter to 400ASA? - How do I expose for both dusk and into night (only lit by moon light)? - You mentioned setting the expsoure time on the light meter, what do you mean by that? I'm using the analogue sekonic light meter. The math of it all is quite confusing if anyone here has a good resource I can look into, it'll be much appreciated!
