Hi,
I will be shooting a commercial involving children playing with lego's, drinving with toy cars, buildng houses etc. Everything will be framed very tight, so I will be only focusing on the kid's hands from the wrist down and the lego itself. The size of the lego set is only about 3x4'. It basicly resembles a small city, with a gas station, houses, firestation etc.
I' am trying to come up with a lighting solution, that will cover most shots, without having to re-light all the time, except when shooting some scenes that really require it.
I will have a couple of lighting setups that I will have to do - mid-day, sunset, night
My idea is to have a light going through duffusion (butterfly) above the lego set, that will act as a key light, which I will be diming based on the needed look and time of day.
Then I was thinking of putting a rim light behind the whole set, coming from either the far left, or far right corner, and occasionally giving me a nice lens flare.
Other than that, I could have a couple of dedo's pointing out certain subjects in the frame.
I would appreciate any tips on making the shots look as good a possible, while also being able to shoot from as much angles as possible.
