So glad you dug it! Thanks for watching man.

+film riot probably the most important information on lighting production was completely skipped - because lighting is so complex and not many people have the necessary 3d spacial ability virtually every serious (whether pro or am) production engages a lighting designer VERY early in the production, ideally before storyboarding. If there is ANY way you (referring to others reading) can do this (are you part of the local amateur theatre company?) then do so, lighting design stuffs with most peoples heards and otherwise you will be wasting days moving lights haphazardly to get the effect you want, or getting nothing like what you had in your head.

I couldn't agree more :D

I'm hugging you in my mind... Is that weird?

Film Riot Well there's plenty of me to go around *hugs* ;D

Film Riot can u shot out a hug to me on an episode i need hug from one cinematographer to another , we all got to stick together , i love u guys

Look at the Haunting of Hill house behind the scenes. The set is really bright and difused at the same time to achieve an ambience that does not pull your eyes to it, then they lower the exposure in post to make it just visible enough to have a sense of mystery while at the same time the keep noise to minimum cause everything was shot with plently of light. Amazing

Thanks man!

That is a green screen.And it can be probably anywhere.

Haha, I know that's a green screen, I just wondered if they had a little studio space. Thanks anyway.

A Tiny Adventure Ya, I think it would be really cool to see their setup. Ryan calls it a studio, even if it isn't.

Sorry to be so offtopic but does someone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost the password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.

@Micah Anakin instablaster =)

@Bradley Charles Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

@Bradley Charles it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my ass!

@Micah Anakin Glad I could help =)

I would try putting the light as high up and far away from the actor as you can with the space that you have outside. Or using significant diffusion. I've used both with some success for night shots. But I would like to see Ryan touch on this in an episode as well.

Shooting with a tungsten white balance you can use a daylight balanced light backed off for a moon-motivated back light, if you're going for that look. How much fill you use is up to what sort of night you want to show. Some DPs only light based off motivated sources and you block your actors near these sources and let them be your guide for any additive lighting. Harris Savides, for instance. lit Michael Douglas with an overhead China Ball gel'd to mimic the tone of the street lamps in San Francisco for the night exteriors on THE GAME. Others float a big diffuse source and blanket daylight balanced ambiance over a night scene (DJANGO, ZERO DARK THIRTY).
