Kirk Sade Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I'm wondering what are some people's experiences with a night ext scenario in which you see the "moon" reflecting in a body of water (Lake, pond, ocean) in the BG...any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiarash Sadigh Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I'm wondering what are some people's experiences with a night ext scenario in which you see the "moon" reflecting in a body of water (Lake, pond, ocean) in the BG...any help would be appreciated.Thanks. I shot this short film a few years ago. It was a night exterior by the beach...there was a smaller body of water branching off from lake Ontario that was playing in the bg...this smaller pond had a very still water surface (which is not good for reflection purposes)...I threw a 1.2 HMI par to the opposite side of the camera, so that the reflection was carefully placed in the sweet spot of the shot...at this point I can see my light's reflection in the water so well that I can tell how many pegs are holding the opal on the barn door!!.... So I asked buch of people on the set to paddle the water , ...it was tricky though as the water would settle down really quick and the take was long...now when I look back at it I wish I had used a bigger and softer source for this... love to know what other people have to say about this.
