Anthony J DeRose Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Hello all, Just wondering some thoughts for a searchlight effect at night on 7219 16mm film. The searchlight is not my key but it will be following a character on the run. I'm thinking of letting it go as much as 4 stops over from my key. Am I being a little too reckless? I want it to feel hot just not burned out white. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
