Thomas Chaves Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hey everyone. I'm gaffing a shoot in two weeks in a large office with a hell of a lot of fluorescent lights overhead and some pretty large windows. (We'll be shooting at night so that eliminates having to gel the windows). What kind of gel(s) would I need to throw in front of my 1K tungsten lights to more-or-less match with standard florescent office tubes. I also plan to use diffusion, either some Lee 216 or 250 to keep the lights soft. If you have any recomendations on a better diff to use along with the gels, please let me know. Thanks.

Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted August 2, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted August 2, 2009 Depends on if the overhead tubes are Cool White or Warm White. Do they look closer to daylight or tungsten to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ale Reynoso Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hi! What about setting up some simple fixtures with the same tubes as in the ceiling? Best regards Alejandro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
