Hello All, I am quite new to the film world, I'm self taught and have had little time in a studio environment. I have mostly been asked to shoot with natural lighting, but I have recently been asked to do a fashion film on a very small budget, in studio. I am a little nervous as to how to go about this particular lighting set up. I have attached the image references I have been given. Any pointers would be much appreciated. Thank you!

hi people, may be, it's little bit a noob question but i have to ask. Can anyone make a breakdown of this image and tell what kind of lighting equipment do i need? I have access to canon 7d mark II and sony 7s mark II as camera, and I will operate sololy. thanks barış

Hey everyone. I have a week shoot coming up were the budget is quite tight for me. The cheapest option is to get tungsten lights for the film, however we have a few scenes interior day and a few night scenes were we want to show moonlight. There is possibilities I may be able to get my hands on 2x 1.2 HMI's and 1x 800 Joker however to help with this. Our last 2 days are in a studio I have to light for moonlight and daylight through the set bedroom. The studio will give me all of there lighting for free however it is all tungsten lights. To give myself a bit more budget I was thinking of returning my lighting kit 2 days early before we shoot the studio bedroom scenes and just use there lights. Although this would mean me using only tungsten lights for moonlight. There strongest light is a 2k Fresnel and they have a wide variety of soft lgihts and hard lgihts between 300 to 2k around the studio. Would this be a good idea or do you think I should bring HMI's to the studio for the moonlight scenes? Will I be losing to much light gelling the tungstens for moonlight?

Hi Everybody, I am shooting a commercial for a company that produces kitchen gadgets and vacuum cleaners. (Intended for the web) I'll be shooting with canon mark III, i have access to pretty much everything that i need for lighting and grip. The studio floor is black, shiny, and very reflective. Back drop is very dark gray (almost like black) and non reflective. It'll start with a top shot of a woman, who struggles with a different brand vacuum and so on... I'll also have some close-up product shots(obviously) and etc. This is the first time I am working with this agency and I want to give them something different, of course, I don't want to re-invent the wheel but I sure can use some creative advice from whomever is available to spare me some of their time. Thank you,

I have 4 J.G. McAlister 10k Big Eye lights for sale. I will sell them as a set or individually. These have 21" lenses and are in excellent condition all parts are there. I am asking $375.00 for each but will take any offers. Each unit weighs just under 100 lbs. These would be great on set or re-purposed.
