What is the opinion of other wedding videographers -- camera lights on or off??</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/basement-shot-1-light-bulb-2-faces-how-2-light-please#post-58000 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 16:07:58 +0000 BC 58000@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hi</p> <p>Thanks for looking...</p> <p>I need to film a scene with a blacked out background (I have black stage curtains or black colourama paper from a photo studio for the background) but with a central, sometimes swinging lightbulb, at about head height or slightly above. The lightbulb is rigged to a dimmer switch so i can vary the output and there will be one and two people in the shot.</p> <p>I want it to look as though the lightbulb is the only source of light, so that at times the light moves with the swing of the bulb.</p> <p>Shooting on an HD canon - can't remember the model right now - the one without the inter-changeable lenses and maybe a Z1 but I think I'd rather just use the canon.  Also have a set of pretty good lights (3).</p> <p>Any and all tips on how to achieve this would be massively appreciated - assume that I don't really know what i'm doing and have a budget of favors, snacks and pennies.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/toronto-after-dark-oct17-24-8-nights-of-horror-sci-fi-action-038-cult-cinema#post-40614 Wed, 08 Oct 2008 19:10:17 +0000 torontoafterdark 40614@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Attention Cinemaniacs!
